I bought this at Joyopolis in the largest size they had (xl), fully convinced I'd never get to wear it and it would just be a cool souvanir on a hanger. Today is my birthday, and I can wear it. Over the moon!

Can Bogu be adjusted/made smaller?

Hi folks!

I'm getting to the point where I'm starting to think about buying my first bogu. I'm not in any rush, but a question has come up that I can't find an answer to.

I am currently on the larger side (understatement!) and I am in the process of losing weight. I don't know how long it will take me, and my weight loss isn't dramatic from one month to the next, but it is happening slowly. But, this does mean that if things go to plan, then over time I will slim down and potentially any do I buy now will end up being too big.

Is it possible to have things like the do adjusted to a slimmer size? Or will I potentially have to buy a new one when I shrink out of the current one?

I don't feel like there's much point me waiting until I'm slimmer to buy bogu, since I don't know how long it will take and I don't want to delay my learning for an extended length of time. I just want to know if I potentially have to budget for replacing bogu parts sooner than I might do just off wear and teark if that makes sense?

Any input appreciated, as always!
