FYI, the honigs Poly wools are dry clean only

That's why we wear the back-up ultimates or the GDs when we work in exceedingly hot or dusty conditions.

I have heard that they can be washed, as long as they are not over-dried.

You spot wash them literally by hand, then hang them to dry and press them. If there's no dirt involved (just perspiration), then I steam them with one of those hand-held steamers and they come out nice and rosy. If there's a cold-weather game, in which there is very little perspiration (especially base games), I just do nothing, give the inside a light spritz of febreze and/or give them a touch-up pressing.

I actually drop them off at my dry cleaner only once or twice a year.

I wash the poly-wools and hang them to dry. Iron them on one of the lowest settings and they're good to go. Mine get waaaay too wet and dirty in the summer from sweat and dirt to just spot clean them like Finnerty does, and I'm not taking them to the dry cleaners every week.

I'm going to buy another set of plate and base pants. They'll be either the Smitty or Honigs Ultimate pants. The Smittys I had last year (The non-adjustable waist) were just okay. The waist bunched up on them. Has anyone worn the Honigs Ultimates and the newer Smitty pants?
