I went with Small and they are a bit baggy, any advice for shrinking them a bit?

I wish I knew how to shrink mine. I've tried hot water but nothing seems to work. That's certainly a sign of a quality made garment when it can hold up to hot water and the dryer. I'll begin purchasing a smaller size in the future.

Shrinkage depends on the type of fabric the garment is made of. Since there is no cotton in these, they cannot shrink.

I found that some pairs came in an ExOfficio sealed bag and fit really well. Others came in just a small clear bag with a tag, and were a bit looser. They do not shrink.

Mines shrunk before my baby got to wear them :( hang them up to dry. No dryer!

There is a size chart on drymaxsocks.com. If youre in between i go with the lower size to keep them snug.

I checked the sizing chart and your good with the large. They're a tight fit even if you've washed them and put them in the dryer.

i wear a 5-6 size in shoes and the small fit well. They are cotton and I expect them to shrink a bit, but that will not be a problem as the knit is very forgiving! Hope that helps! Linda

I wear an 8 and the Small is perfect. I see others suggest Medium! You may just have to try one.

Looks like you fall pretty well into the medium part of the size chart... I would go with that, especially if you normally would choose a large. You want these to be tight for the support, and they do stretch a bit as you wear them and as they age.

I'm the same size, medium fits perfect to me, I would think the small would be too tight, I'm into the skinny jeans phase. Hope that helps.

I will go small, but It may fit perfect not too adjust not to tight, but depending on what you want it for. If you want it tight, go x small if possible.

I wear a size 4 and the small was perfect. I don't think they run small...more true to the size. Good luck, wish I could help you more. They washed beautifully and there was no shrinkage.

I am much heavier than your wife and shorter. I got a large. I would say a small. These pants should fit tight. They are awesome. She would definitely like them.

I would recommend a small. The material is stretchy and a medium may not provide as much support.

Going with the slightly bigger gi will allow you to shrink it a bit. I wear an A3 and it's a bit big, tried an A2 and it was too small to roll in comfortably.

They are pretty stretchy. So going with your normal size will probably work just fine.

I'm pretty small too. I had to relax a bit and go carefully, and they're pretty big still. I like them for that, but I would suggest going with a 3/4" pair first if you're nervous about it. They were what I started with, for the same reason.

They are a relaxed fit, but not at the point where they are baggy!! They were a perfect relaxed fit for me.

Hi Martha, I'm about 5'-10" and 180lbs (many of those lbs are in my tummy area, unfortunatley) and I went with the Medium and they fit perfectly, so I would venture that a size SM would do the trick - you do want them tight if they're going to be worn as a base layer.
