How to Shrink Your T-Shirt With and Without a Dryer

Whether you're promoting your business or a special event, custom T-shirts make wonderful giveaway items. As with all custom apparel, they allow anyone wearing them to act as promotional assistants for your brand imprint. Wherever they go, your custom logo will be on display. And unlike so many other promotional items, T-shirts can last for years if they're properly cared for, which really stretches the reach of your promotional budget.

*DISCLAIMER: It is recommended that you check the care tag and/or contact the manufacturer of your garment before attempting either of these shrinking methods. While these methods work best for cotton shirts, results may still vary.

Can I do this for a football jersey. Its medium but I want it small. Would the hot water damage the team & sponsor logo?

Will this remove ink print from something. My ww2 Marine Corps field jacket has the iconic globe and anchor on it and I'd hate fore that to be ruined. Any advice?

Say I have a shirt that is a little big for XL, but like I said, just a LITTLE, so like XXL. Now you said this process will shrink ut one or two sizes. To minimize the shrinking, should I keep the temperature lower, keep it in the water less or some other process?
