If you need an “in between” gi size (e.g. too big for A2, too small for A3), you can try buying a size up and shrinking the gi to fit. To shrink a gi, machine washing with hot water and machine dry on hot. Getting the shrinkage right will take some guesswork, so be careful about overdoing it. You can also check out companies that offer extra sizes, like tall and short models (such as A2S or A2X).
