I've washed them several times and they're still the same. I'd say they maintain their color and shape with each wash; they allow for movement without needing readjustment. Plus, they feel nice to the touch. I tested them for weight training and they work well. In my case, I noticed less chafing than with my previous ones. Tip: for training, microfiber is better. Happy with Diëtz.
I've worn other brands before, and the difference is noticeable. They don't dig in or wrinkle, they don't retain heat, and they dry quickly. The logo isn't irritating or itchy either. For my needs, they're really breathable in the summer heat. Compared to other brands, they withstand washing better than my previous ones. I'll definitely buy them in other colors.
