While it may be possible to temporarily shrink spandex material by exposing it to hot water or putting it in the dryer on a high heat setting, this can also damage the fabric and affect its elasticity. It is generally not recommended to intentionally try to shrink spandex material, as it is designed to be stretchy and form-fitting. If you need a spandex garment to fit better, it is better to seek out one that is specifically designed in a different size or style rather than attempting to alter it through shrinking.
