washing waders

[John Wade]

My breathable stockings have no cleaning info on them(Hodgman). I turned them in and gave a gentle scrub to no avail. Can I toss them in the washer or will it hurt them?
They smell so bad that I have caught the grim reaper following me down the beach...skunks flee in terror...dogs start digging holes...I chum by dipping a foot over the side...the sand turns to glass under my feet. Just the other day a cop let me go with a warning for driving 100 down 1A. We're talking funky! In fact, we're talking Rick James funky!

don't wash them, you may comprimise the membrane.

Call Hodgman for instructions. I have the local reps (Herb) contact info at home.

Is it the boots themselves? Try soaking them and frequently changing the water. You can wash the neoprene with soap.
