March 1, 201412 yr A good way to do it is to fold it at your waist level. Another thing but it depends on ur age, if you are old enough that you won't get any taller , you can cut it short to your preference. Wish this can help!!

March 1, 201412 yr Hi mate,Hot wash and throw it in the dryer, do this a few times, the Gi will shrink. By how much, not sure, depends on the material -Ken 28+ years of training - and knowing the more I learn, the less I actually know...

By how much, not sure, depends on the material -KenAnd if your gi doesn't shrink, or doesn't shrink enough, well, then get out the sewing kit and make it to your specifications. OR...send it back to the company you bought it from so that you can get a properly fitting gi. Nowadays, gi's are tailored for a many body types. In the days of old, gi's were in whole sizes, 1 - 6, so they either fit well or they just didn't. **Proof is on the floor!!!

If you have the disposable income I would definitely suggest investing in getting your gi tailored to your body.

March 1, 201412 yr I need to know how to stretch my old brown belt and gi that I wore when I was 16 and weighed 135 pounds. Over the past 25 years it all must have shrunk. I can't even tie a knot with the belt and the gi makes me look like a sausage. It's crazy how that phenomenon has affected my clothing over the years. WildBourgMan
