How do you shrink cotton t shirts with band logos on them ?
I have lost a bit of timber recently and my extra large sabbath, zep , godflesh , black flag and soundgarden printed t shirts need coming down a size , they are like a tent on me
Is it just a case of bunging them inside out in the washing machine on a high heat then tumble drying them for an hour ?
No way am I walking round in a kylie minogue uk tour rip off I bought from a tout , it's all I have left

I think it's actually very difficult to shrink tshirts these days, I've tried more than once

Try a few bulldog clips around the back. That's what I do with my excess fat.

Ask my Mrs to wash it for you and ask her to be sure not to shrink it, it always seems to work for me.

You coud try boiling them. Most cotton is pre-shrunk though.

I tried boiling one and it just ruined the collar and went a bit out of shape.

I guess you've only lost weight and not height. Trying to shrink your tshirts will, if it works, shrink them in every direction so you'll end up with the bottom of the shirt sitting just above your belly.
You could run a new hem down each side and then unpick it when you've put the weight back on.
