Washing gym kit

11.1K Posts



I regularly work out and (obviously) wash my gym kit after each workout - however some fabrics can only be washed at 30 degrees and although they smell clean / fresh when I next put them on - once I / they get warm during a workout I'm paranoid they are getting smelly.
Can anyone recommend a gentle but effective way of 'refreshing' my kit or is it just time to bin and buy new? I used to soak / wash my kit in napisan but tbh that doesn't seem to have made a difference so I haven't bought any more since the box ran out.

I'm sure you don't smell any worse than anyone else.

I was going to ask if anyone has used this? What temperature do you use it at?
I don't normally take any notice of care labels and wash everything at 60. However my new gym clothes are 'dry fit' material I am worried I might shrink them. Some of then say to wash at 20 :eek:
