Skins Ice wearers: How often do you wash them?

Question to Skins Ice Wearers, how often do you wash your Skins Ice? Apparently the Skins does not become odourous. After one round it looked perfectly clean and dry. So I was just wondering how often do you wash them?

I know a particular famous radio DJ that did not wash his jeans for 2 years. Does it work the same way?

I washed mine after my first round, so no worries. I'm clean.

every round.....it will be soaking wet with sweat

when i was younger, i did not wash my jeans for periods of 2-3 months...that was in Australia though, during winter.

I would wash my Skins (the normal variant) after each round. I think it's expected given the amount of sweat it absorbs.

after every single round...

else by next game... your buggy mate might faint? hahaha

Skins owner who bet heavily might want to use the UNWASHED skins if you know what i mean kekeke....

Wah Rocky, you serious?

Better wash it everytime after the game, smelly or not.

Odour is not a good gauge for the amount of bacteria left on your clothing man. Dun believe next time I spray my Armani code on my undies then let you test-smell.

alot of jeans lovers don't wash their jeans for 1 year plus.. everytime u wash a pair of jeans.. it leeches away the colour.. and also to get the seasoned look... so it's normal i havent washed mine for close to 5 months already

I think you can get away with that overseas (where the weather is cool and not humid). Here, if you don't wash your jeans for a week... I fear that people around you will know.

I washed my skins everytime after I used it. Handwash to prolong the lifespan of the product as suggested by BFG.

Anyway, Jeans - I'd rather buy a new one than not washing it more than 1 or 2 weeks....

I also dry them under the shade and not under direct sunlight.

Lol.. i would be quite horrified if anyone said that they didn't wash their skins after every round..

Rocky: for 5 secs (which is the time that the page took to load after i initially read the topic), i was thinking to myself that the next time i saw you, better keep my distance hahahaha

Ya, when it was loading, I am so curious to know who don't wash after each round.. keke.
Though sometimes it feels dry after a game but I think it still contain my sweat..

I do not want to distract my partner during the next game..
Rock, you clarified that you washed after your 1st round, I guess you have sort of decided not to wash the next time round, thus creating this thread. keke.

Or at least have the thought of doing it and seeking similar minds

Ok. Just to clarify. Everything goes into the wash after every round.

Well, this thread started because I had friends whom I used to play soccer with. And as far as I know, 2 or 3 of them don't wash their socks. One of them even pulled out a mouldy one before a tournament game and put it on! So I was just wondering if you guys did the same... Well, I guess not.

Nevertheless this thread was a good laugh.

Rocz

you have just confirmed to me that most soccer players are dirty b@$tards.

Makes me wonder what goes thru their mind when they hug and kiss and gather after every goal...

they exchange shirts with the other team at the end and they put them on too!

aiya but we have army training mah.. everything just a bit of sun and wind and it'll do.

Since we are on Skins, curious to find out how many of you Skins owners really follow washing instructions & LAY it out to dry instead of hanging out to dry?

If need to lay it out, first we need a bigger, flat, clean surface area; & since it is lay flat, wouldn't it take longer to dry? I am seriously second guessing that instruction.

I actually lay mine out (sorta) on a clothes rack so while it's not flat on the floor, it's not hanging either. I think this is better as it allows the Skins to drip-dry and the ventilation below helps too.

My interpretation was that you LAY it on something, a pole or a flat surface, rather than HANG it on a hanger.

i jux rinse mine in cold water and hang it dry lol......
i will also spray it almost everytime i wear it....cuz the ice feeling worn out after 2 games for me maybe cuz i sweat too much wahhaa....but the thg realli absorbs sweat well.......

I also wish to spray generously after every couple of wash, but worried the spray will run out fast & cannot buy replacement spray. As far as I know, no one is selling the spray in SG yet.

I wring my SKINS dry and hang on hanger; no need to baby them. Then got excuse to buy new ones. hahahaa

So far so good; only "blemish" is the skins logo/decal peels off and I have a part on my left elbow side that shows some kind of abrasion/scuffing. The abrasion/scuffing part I'm not sure comes from where; could be resting/rubbing the elbow on the golf cart rest or from an elbow brace which I used to wear last time.

I wash mine everytime after I use them. Handwash, wring then dry them horizontally across 2 poles.
