What are the washing instructions? I want to be able to put them in the washer and dryer without shrinking or ruining them

I put mine in the washing machine yesterday and now they are shrunk. I came here to try and find how to fix them, but looks like I'll have to buy new ones

It is ok to put them into washer but they advice to have them dry outside. But please check their site

I tried washing mine yesterday as they've developed a bad smell, and for the 15 minutes I was trying to wash them, the black dye kept coming out endlessly, and my hands were completely black. In the end, I just got so tired of this process and lost hope. Today, they're semi-dry but streak black like crazy. The amount of dye is ridiculous, and instructions to hand wash are ridiculous as well. Horrible.

I've been using these gloves for a long time and only tried to wash them once. they didn't come clean so now I just use them and buy another pair when needed. I feel bad about throwing them in the garbage so I usually donate them, along with other clothes, to those in need. I don't know if the charity throws them away instead of giving to someone to help keep their hands warm in winter.

I threw them in the washing machine and let them air dry. I was living in an apartment with no circulation and they got moldy just sitting there.......

I've had mine for a quite a long time now and I would say you don't need to wash them, but I have thrown them in washer or dryer from time to time and they have not shrunk for me. You could hand wash them as well to avoid them from shrinking and just let them dry out.

I soak mine in a bucket of soapy water overnight, rinse and air dry. They've lasted for 4 years and look fine. I would not machine wash them with ANY other garment--the dye runs like crazy.

I have a pair from 2011 that said Machine Wash and Dry on the packaging, but now their web site says Hand Wash and Air Dry. I contacted Harbinger, and they said they switched over to new leather around 2011 that should be hand washed. I have successfully machine washed and dried my older ones, but did find that the black dye will rub off on other clothes.

Don't put them in washer hand wash them and just air dry there is a instruction inside the glove

I wash mine in washer along with other gym clothes and dry with them as well. They've lasted me over two years. I've just bought another pair but still using the old ones. The instructions are three drawings that seem to indicate, hand wash and dry in dryer.

Hi Brian. I haven't washed mine yet, i believe you can, but I would not put in the dryer. I hope this helpful.

Yes, they should be able to be washed with no problem. I have not washed them yet, but I can see that it will be no problem to slide them out of the hangers and throw them in the wash.

Sorry about the delay in replying. I looked at the covers for laundry instructions and there wasn't any specific details about washing so as of right now I don't know.

I throw them in the washing machine, color cycle, warm. Dryer, low heat. No problem. They work great.

Do NOT dry them in the dryer. Dry them in the open air. The heat from the dryer will destroy the way they work.

Did you put them in the dryer after washing? I always hang mine on a drying rack and have never had shrinkage.

No shrinkage after washing. BUT, I machine wash then hang them to drip dry-no machine drying!

I wash mine in the washer on the "delicate" setting. I then let them air dry at room temperature. ....

I think if they become dirty you might be able to wash them, but I do not think their intended purpose is to provide fabric softening in a washer. They are balls of wool that bounce around in the dryer to keep the clothes separated. I'm not sure how useful they would be in a washer.

I just throw them in with colors & warm water. Then in the dryer. They are very easy maintenance.

We washed ours on gentle cycle but didn't dry them in the dryer. Just let them air dry. They didn't shrink on us :) we have the white covers so some stains remained but definitely look better!!

I've washed them by hand and with dish washing soap. Then let them dry between paper towels. So it should work in the laundry as long as they don't end up draining with the water ...... they are small (5"x3") .

I don't remember but I've washed them in the washer and they are fine. Just like all workout gear avoid softener I personally avoid the dryer but it may be safe

Have not washed mine yet but this is what I am going to do. I am going to treat them like they were a gentle item I wash, I am going to spray them with fantasic because fantastic takes off everything it is amazing.. I am then going to put them into a pillow case tie it shut and wash them on gentle cycle.. I then am going to air dry them... Or in summer I will lay them out on my patio table to dry in the sun .. God Bless

I put mine in the washer and dryer all the time. Even though they dry quickly, I suspect they will eventually harbor bacteria, so I highly recommend washing them.

Mine have been washed MANY times. They are softer, no issues. I put them in the washer and dryer.
