Moi, aussi! Heloise would be so proud! What's next? Ironing your flightsuits???

Never did that ... but I DID spit shine my boots w/ flyin' Adversary.

I think any good Rooskie MiG-driver would have done that .... don't you??? :D


And wore orange, red, dark blue, and tan flight suits in addition to two varieties of NAVY green bags.

I put mine in the washer. I think it's supposed to be dry cleaned but I don't care. It came out clean. That's about all that matters. Oh and it still is comfortable to wear. It worked.

You're worried about the leather band arn't you? The washer worked fine. Just don't use the dryer is my recommendation.

What leather band? Mine doesn't have a leather band.


The abbotts one does.

If you read my post above, I DID use the washer, multiple times. No joy. As for peroxide, I believe peroxide will bleach the color out.

So did the NEX ones in the ol' days -- at least the "nicer" ones (a relative term) did that theoretically required dry cleaning vice machine washing ... although the machine & Tide or generic equivalent worked fine.

Like someone said: no dryer, however. :)

Swear the stuff is magic, has gotten sweat stains out for me every time

That stuff is truly amazing. I'll vouch for this product. It gets out EVERYTHING that I have tested it with. Pit stain killer.
