Shrinking my Judo gi

hang dry it. the hot wash will tighten the weave considerably, maybe more than you want.

but like i said earlier just stand on the middle and pull the sleeves up like you're doing a deadlift it should stretch a bit.
 
After a hot wash and hot dryer, I finally got the perfect fit....

I got a new Adidas Elite gi for my birthday and I need to shrink it down a litle bit. Does anyone have any suggestions for a slow controlled shrinkage?

Just wash in cold water-- it will shrink over time. if you're in a rush-- use a dryer, once.
