Hey guys!
I had bought a protoss t-shirt online which I received today from America. I usually get XXL or XXXL size in Bulgaria and I did the same (XXXL) for that protoss t-shirt. However, there is a problem because it's too big for me. I don't know whether the reason is American size is bigger or it's just me. Nevertheless, I feel I need to do something about this like... shrinking? Do you have any idea/suggestion?
I know the other way is to contact the seller, but it's too expensive to send the t-shirt back to America and then wait for another. :/
Please help a fellow starcraft fan

what material is the shirt made of? Cotton shirts that haven't been preshrunk will of course shrink if you run it through dryer which could help.
|
Oops.  The label says:
"100% preshrunk cotton".
Is there any chance?
|
I mean obviously putting it through the wash will shrink it a little bit, but idk any other ways to shrink it further. Wish I could be more help.
|
You could just get bigger instead?
But yea sizes in the US are always a bit bigger than in Europe : / Americans and their measurement systems

Is there any special washing cycle that I should use? Degrees?

I wish I had known that earlier. :/

also America has a slight obesity problem so thats probably why its bigger than usual

I know if you run it in the washer with hot water and then pop it in the dryer with the highest temperature setting, it'll shrink. Something my friend did was place the shirt in a boiling pot of water for a few couple minutes then let it air dry after wringing out the excess water. Hope it helps, mate.

everything is bigger in America including ridiculous fast food portions, its gross.
|
A lot of brands lie about their size standards, its usually bigger than the normal to compensate.

1. Work out.
2. Develop fucking huge pecs and ripped shoulders.
3. ???
4. Profit.
|
Yeop, US&A likes their food, should've went for one size smaller.... too bad you didn't know it.
|
Give it to someone who can sew and have them resize it for you. I think that is the safest/best option if u really can't get a new one.
Dodger did a clip on how to do it:
Resizing convention shirt
|
If you got a sewing machine and some skillz you can always resize it but thats more work.
|
A lot of shops (usually dry cleaners) around my area offer custom resizes for under 10 canadian dollars. Obviously resizing a t-shirt is a million times more practical than resizing a dress shirt, lets say.
Realistically, the amount of dry cleaning it would take to shrink pre-shrunk cotton is stupendous. An experienced tailor can do this in less than an hour lol, luckily I have my grandmothers to do that o.o
