How To Wash Textile Riding Jackets & Gear
"..........Over time the water-repellant coating that’s applied to the exterior of many textile jackets will wear off. Adding a waterproofing solution such as Nikwax to the wash will restore your jacket’s water-beading ability. Refer to the instructions on the bottle.
...........Air-dry your apparel on a hanger or lay it flat on a dry towel. Never put motorcycle gear in the dryer unless the manufacturer explicitly allows it." Read full article here: http://www.motorcyclistonline.com/ho...tips-mc-garage

Why wash it when you can just ride in the rain occasionally?
