Fuzzy Shirts - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

So I recently bought some cotton t-shirts from Eddie Bauer. I'm a college student so I use a backpack just about everyday. I've noticed my shirts are becoming fuzzy where my lower back is. I think it's my backpack digging into my shirt and creating this. Does anyone else have this problem? How do I stop this?

It's caused from the friction of your back pack. Whenever I go to the gym I wear cotton pants. The area on my inner thighs always gets that weird cotton thing. I don't think there's really anything you can do about it except maybe get a shoulder bag.

Thanks pornclerk. I manage to find a device call a clothing shaver. It basically shaves off the fuzz.

100% cotton doesn't usually do this, only the blends. usually...

Clothing shavers are great for that, I think you can use them on garments with fine wool threads too.

Clothing shavers are a godsend, it beats having to pick all the lil fuzzballs off like I did back in school. I have come to the conclusion that they just dont make things the way they used to!
