Buff Washing Instructions

[HLaB]

I've not really been a frequent wearer of my buff in the past, so haven't really bothered about washing it This week however I've wore it three times and probably will on Saturday and Sunday so I thought I'd better check for washing instructions, so I went to the official site :

Your Buff is made of pretty strong stuff, in fact it might possibly outlast you. However, if you notice a strange aroma after a few months of use, all you need do is either wash by hand using any form of detergent or machine wash at any temperature and it wont stretch, shrink or run as a Buff is completely colorfast. Washing with cotton may cause pilling. If you wash in the machine, we recommend washing with other synthetics. And when it comes to drying all you need do is run down the street with your Buff trailing behind and after a good hour on the run it should be dry or just hang it on the line because it will dry in minutes.

Hmm... I wash mine infrequently when I wash my hands. Stick the bar of soap inside and rub it around a bit under a running tap, rinse & repeat. If it's winter, I then leave it on a radiator overnight, if it's anything else, I just wear the thing.

Stick it on your head in the bath and shampoo it. I'm only half joking.

I've always just bunged mine in the machine with my shorts / tops.

After reading the official line I'm going to go with that too, I'm too use to fussy cycling gear that has got to be either 30deg, cold or handwash

they go through the wash fine, but yeah you can wash em easy enough, wrap buff around head, submerge head in water and shake, remove head. buff will dry quickly

I just rinse mine while i am in the shower and bung it on the radiator so its dry for the next day, it might get a proper wash about once a month .

Did I imagine you microwaving buffs when in a rush?

I just stick them in the normal wash and know that they dry pretty fast. However I do like those instructions rather than the normal ... "wash in cold water when there is a full moon and we take no responsibility when the product looks totally different" type of instructions

You mean I should wash it? Ah well if I must.
