just an idea that might work. get them wet in hot water. then strech them. and then once strenched clamp them down with sokmething so they stay streched. then plow dry them. if it doesnt work try again. hopefully that should work.

I use this method to turn my tall tees into super tall tees but i bet it'll work just the same.

stand on thee bottom of the shirt with your feet kinda parallel, covering the entire bottom

hold the upper half with your hands and pull as hard as you can in a tugging motion

thats about it

have fun

stay ghetto folks.

its plenty big just not very tall
so i got some clamps that i use for epoxying things and wet my shirt in water and then clamped it between two counters in my kitchen it was a lot of stretch to reach but its holding now so i think this should work

bahh my friends does that shit
why dont you people just buy tall tees that fit how you like them already without having to stretch them out i mean the biggest size i wear is a 4x tall and its perfect for me
and if your shirt is a 4x large not tall your gonna look like a goober if your not super fat
also when you stretch shirts like that it makes them super uneven so you might end up having a flap of shirt hanging out under your jacket on one side

1. put ur shirt in the washing machine and start it.

2. when its done take out the shirt and kinda whip and it gradually stretches

3. u can also put one end under ur feet and pull the shirt (mix of 2 and 3 is the best)

4.then hang dry

this woirks for hoodies too
