hi guys & gals
On my suit it has got cleaning instructions on the inside stitched to a pocket and it quite clearly states no washing machines, and recomends re-proofing every 2 years, and it gives the address to which I can send it to get it professionaly cleaned and re-proofed, In the case of boat anglers I would say this it's your life your suit is going to save if everything goes pearshaped so be careful what you do to it, I lightly scrub the outside only of mine with washing up liquid in a bucket of warm water wash off with the hose pipe and hang up to dry this is reccomended by the manufacturer, so it may pay you to have a look inside your suit to see if you have a lable. Stay Safe Gus.
