I havn't tried it yet, but it sounds pretty legit.  tell me how it goes if you try it.  The detergent should cover up the smell after you wash it.

I have tried warm water, then stretching.  It worked, but my hoodie has a zipper, so it got in the way a little.

Just stretch your clothes when they are wet. after you washed it you just stand on one end of the shirt/hoddie grab the other end, and stretch it. but make sure its wet.

Here is the best way to strecth a hoodie or t shirt..

1. Wash whatever you want to stretch

2. Put in the the dryer for only a little bit, so when you take it out it's still pretty damp.

3. Then put in on the iron board and start stretching it out while ironing.  Start at the top and once you're at the bottom of the shirt just pull the shirt as far as possible and iron it til it stays.  You can stretch shirts/hoodies 3 inches easy but if you really work at it like 5!

the hanger attaches to the BOTTOM of the tee and you hang it up and let it stretch, if you start it when the t is still wet it adds 5 inches, (the shirt in the pic is a 3xlt, im 6 feet tall, and it goes to my kneecaps)

btw. the sigs on the shirt are nick martini (+++STREET CRED), mike clarke, and john symms.

well, we know YOU stretch them simply by wearing them, but we wanted to know how to add length, not girth...

ugggh you guys are noobs!

step 1) take hoodie soak entire thing in water
step 2) fold hoodie in half
step 3) fold hoodie in half again

step 4) repeat steps 2 and 3 until you cant fold anymore

step 5) open a door

step 6) Throw folded hoodie over top of door holding both ends

step 7) holding both ends hang from your hoodie and stretch it out


the folding method will keep everything even.

exactly haha but you switch it around. like put the bottom of the hoodie/tee in the top of the door so its hanging upside down. and then you can just put a normal hanger in the bottom (top since its upside down) and hang like a bag full of books or something on the other end. confusing. oh and get it wet. its kind of a bitch with the zipper though

haha this is ridiculous

so, what, you plan to make it fit by... stretching it?

you guys are morons. somebody, somewhere, who came up with this ridiculous xxxxxxl fad, and then realised it was absurd, is chuckling to himself as we speak.

Well, it was clearance so i got it for $15 and they only had mediums left. Seeing as i'm 5 9/10ish and the sleeves don't even reach my wrists.... i guess i'm a moron for buying a hoodie that doesn't fit because it was clearance...not because i wanted a xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxl fit.....

stretching is just going to deform the graphics won't it? you could always give it a good vertical stretch with a buddy like the 4bi9 kids do

put a bit more than the bottom cuff on top of the door, close the door, find a bunch of hangers and put them into the neck of the sweatshirt, so its upside down with the hangers facing down, then just hang heavy shit on the hanger loops,
