Knickers
 
After washing, do you hang dry or throw in the dryer?

I put them in the dryer for about 10 mins to get the wrinkles out then air dry them.

I use the dryer and they are fine.

Dryer 6 minutes.

I just hang all of my stuff straight out of the washer. Then fold it up and put it in my bag.

I don't understand why you guys do any of this stuff. Don't you have wives that can do this while you're watching SportsCenter? :D

If my wife washes my uniform items, she plays scavenger hunt with them. Takes me forever to pack my bag. :rolleyes:

Along the same lines, who makes the best knickers. I was going to buy a pair of the Honig's deluxe knickers with the 27" inseam but they're out of stock until mid-late October. I want western pockets, 27" inseam, not 24", and quality materila.

Ordered a pair of the +POS delixe. They stink. Thin, flimsy material, short waist...a full two inches shorter from the inseam to the top of the waistline. They're going back tomorrow.

Thoughts?

I have both the Honigs and +POS western pocket knickers and the Honigs are better hands down. Deeper pockets in the front, better material for the rear pockets, and higher quality seams on the Honigs pants.

I hang dry both shirts and pants. Always, purchase Honigs gear if you want the best quality and service.

Heh. I know I'm in the overwhelming minority here, but I vastly prefer +POS knickers to Honig's. The Honig's ones never seem to fit right around the waist, no matter what size I order. The lighter material of the +POS knickers is a positive in my book. And at my height (5'4"), the fact that they're also shorter is a HUGE plus - all of my Honig's knickers have a ton of material bunched up around my knees. Looks like crap. It's maddening, because there are some things that I much prefer to get from Honig's (hats come to mind), but the comfort factor makes it well worth the extra shipping to place two orders.

LOL! well, that makes sense, since I'm 6'4". Those +POS knickers were the most uncomfortable things I've ever tried on.

Yes, I have a wife but she does not touch the uniform.
