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.

Wash in cold water. Air dry. Do not put in the dryer. If you air dry they will not shrink.

I wash mine in the washer and dry them in the dryer. I've had them for years and they are good as new.

I have always just washed them the same as I wash my cloth diapers and then hang them to dry on a drying rack. They dry very quickly and I've had no issues. Mine are about a year old and aside from some pilling, they're still going strong!

I just put them in the washing machine using hot water with regular laundry soap and then dry them on the normal setting. Sometimes I use a soak setting beforehand.

they can be warm washed but dont put them in the dryer. did that to my first set and messed them up. dont know what happened to them . my best guess would be chemical break down from washer to the dryer?

I'm sorry, I don't know. I bought these as a gift for someone else. My best guess is to let them soak in Dreft or other mild detergent for 30 min and then let them air-dry or dry on low in the dryer.

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 have washed them in a washing machine without any problems, but I do put them in a lingerie bag, and I air-dry them. I wouldn't just throw them in the machine. A zipper pillow case works well also.

Hi - the only thing the package says is to wash on delicate cycle. When I wash mine, I use the quick wash cycle on my machine and put them on a drying rack to dry. It doesn't say they can't go in the dryer though.

I have washed them and they do fine in the washer. I just used light cycle. I also dried with no problem.

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

I just wash them on the normal cycle with my dark cloths. I also put them in the dryer. I don't use fabric softener so I can't help ya there.

They are washable. I wash mine in hot (with underwear, sheets, towels) then throw them in the dryer. Usually, I take them out of the dryer before they are fully dry (i.e. overly hot). They have held up really, really well and are still going strong for me.

I washed mine in cold water and put them in the dryer on Medium and haven't had any shrinkage issues

I have washed them, but I have not put them in the dryer. I prefer to air dry, but if you do I suggest you use the low setting to protect from shrinkage.

I have not washed them yet. But I think you just air dry them. I know I am not going to put them in the dryer.
