I bought a new pair of testerosas three months ago. I love them. After some break in time they were perfect. Now that it is getting warmer when I first put them on they are perfect but after a couple of hours they are too soft. Next time I will buy another half size smaller size but is there any way to reduce stretch or cause some "shrinkage"?

you can reduce sweat and stretch by not wearing them for 3 hours straight.
Take them off between climbs.

You are wearing them "for couple hours" at a time? They are too big!
Seriously though, my Testarossas stretched quite a bit. And there really isn't much you can do to shrink them.

Buy some inserts, they will feel smaller. Or take them back to REI and get a new pair.
