October 12, 200520 yr whats the best way to wash your riding gear? for example my wulfsport bottoms say to hand wash only but after awhile i got fed up of this and never really cleaned them But today i thought there gettin just abit dirty so i just shoved them in the washing machine on delicate wash and they came out ok and alot cleaner. so why do they say hand wash only James
October 12, 200520 yr They are fine in the washing machine at 30 degrees celsius and on a gentle rinse. I have done it with my hebos for a year and they haven't shrunk at all.

No nowt about washing machines, seems you have a wealth of knowledge Got a missus to do that job, I have a rough idea where the washing machine is, I have a feeling it is located in the kitchen, but I don't go there either Sorry I can't help, and no you can't bring your riding gear round here
October 12, 200520 yr stick your air filters down your trouser leg before washing your pants. Stops the missus finding them and they come out lovely and clean too

October 12, 200520 yr Put the pants in a mesh bag like those used for SCUBA diving gear. It keeps the pants from getting roughed about in the washing machine. Then hang them out to dry.

October 13, 200520 yr Always wash my hebo trials kit at 40 degrees but use Persil colour fast powder, This stops the colours from fading. I never use the tumble drier though, let them dry on the washing line or clothes airer. Often it's the tumble drying that causes the damage. My hebo shirt is still going strong after 5 years of washing every weekend. The leggings eventually wore out after 4 years! It's the gloves that don't last long, get through a pair of those inside a season.

My first ploy to stop me doing the washing was to act stupid and look all fustrated. However, this ploy failed given a month or so, so my next idea was to use fairy washing up liquid instead of the normal bio stuff, and what a great result! soap subs poured out of the machine and the wife went ballistic! No washing duties for me
October 13, 200520 yr Can't stress enough though not to use the tumble dryer. it will shrink your clothes in no time at all.
