AlereFlammam Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Hello you fine jersey experts Just picked up an edge 3.0 practice jersey and the previous owner washed and put it in the dryer -shrinking the jersey. Any idea on how I can unshrink it? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfitz804 Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 My mom was famous for shrinking clothes, and she used to say to soak the garment in water and hang it on a hanger completely soaked, the weight would stretch it out. I do not believe this ever worked one time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 No; in all seriousness, you'll never get it back to where it was. Once the material contracts, that's it. The twill probably all shriveled up too since that stuff isn't a fan of direct heat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlereFlammam Posted October 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 Luckily there isn't any twill. It is completely blank. My guess is that it's an NCAA team issue because of the "advertising" of the reebok logo I read something about soaking in conditioner and warm water and then stretching it once it's completely saturated. Not sure how well it works for polyester but I'll try that first. Then if that doesn't work I need to find a fat man to wear my little jersey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The conditioner relaxes the fibers. They tested it on that "Life Hacks" show, or whatever it's called, and they found it did work. However, I think that was a cotton garment. Not sure that'd work on a synthetic garment like a hockey jersey. But, worth a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
