Laundering tip

Zip up the pants and button all the fastenings before laundering. You will be less likely to have a weak spot develop in your zipper that could fail at an inopportune moment.

No, it wasn't me.

One tip that I have is to wash everything in cold water and do not dry anything...ever...let them air dry... eben if B'ball's little smilie face throws up on you. Works best for me and my stuff stays looking good for a long time!

Just don't leave cash in your pockets or you may be arrested for money laundering.

(I actually thought that was what money laundering meant as a kid, and never understood why people got arrested for it).

You don't take them off first either?

Why bother with the washing machine. When I get home, as soon as I get out of my car I go to the back yard, pull out the hose and spray them down. This works really well.
