earthson Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Absolutely! They also get lighter in both color and weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habana Mike Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I've had quite a few older cigars shrink to a point where the bands loosened up a fair bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGC Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Yes. The bands on many of my 70's and 80's sticks will slide right off.... as well as some 90's sticks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
