Reply To: Cleaning Waders

I wash mine in front load washing machine every 2 or 3 trips with a minimal amount of detergent on warm gentle cycle then pull out and empty water that has collect in bottom of boots.  I then put in dryer on air dry setting.  Been washing same pair of Simms waders for last 4 years this way and no problems.  This process is pretty much what Simms posts on their website for wader care.
