Default Gi size/fitting question

Apologies, I am sure this has been covered before. But I wanted to ask how is a gi supposed to fit, how long are the pants supposed to be? Down to the ankles or mid shin? How about the arms, down to the wrists? I am 5'10" and ordered a Krugan size A2, the top fits fine but the bottoms seem to be short ie they are about 3 inches above my ankle. Do I need a larger size ie A3? Will the top shrink ? Thanks in advance

Wink

the sleeves should be above the wrists, maybe about 2".

the botoms (pants) should be above the ankles, about 2"-3".

i'm also 5' 10", 175lbs. and wear an HCK size 5... if that helps.

i'm not familiar with krugan's sizing or if they shrink, but i do know that my HCK fits perfect and it hasn't shrunk (pre-shrunk) at all.
