Hey all,
I've got a (too large) Pearl Izumi 100% polyester jersey. Any chance it can be shrunk with some sort
of washing, or substance added to the wash?
The tag says to wash cold, which leads me to believe washing hot may shrink it.
Thanks, Doug

Run it through the dryer a few times.
Or get someone with a sewing machine to take out part of the side panels (that's about the only place you can remove fabric succesfully).
