Routine washing of training clothes.

RoyalMoose11

What do folks use to wash their under armour/dri-fit/moisture wicking gear? I have The Laundress for my very sensitive skin and have been using that. I've added some more clothes and have about enough to do a weekly training-only load. I considered a specialty sports detergent but I'm wondering if a borax/baking soda routine would work for weekly use without ruining the moisture wicking/dri-fit qualities. I've read that combo is good for getting them smells out but is it safe for their regular treatment?

I wash my gear all together and use my own homemade laundry soap - a combination of borax, washing soda and Fels Naptha soap - works great, haven't had problems with it. Cleans well and no problems with the wicking or getting odors out. I wash it all on a delicate cycle and hang it all to dry.

I use Trader Joe's liquid laundry detergent and cold water on my Under Armour gear. Its been working fine. UA stuff lasts forever. No problems with wicking or odor.

I use method's free and clear with vinegar thrown in! I use it for my lululemon and Nike dri-fit!

I dunno, I have a HE washer... I just use Tide HE detergent, and one of those extra pods as well whenever I wash my training clothes. Most of them are dri-fit stuff, and I've had them for a while... and they still work like new.
