By washing your gear only when it is absolutely necessary, you will not only conserve water, but also minimize wear and tear on your garments.It is only an occasional full wash that your most used outerwear needs.If it is caked with dirt, consider using a rag or sponge to spot- clean rather than putting it through a machine cycle.Synthetic jackets that are laundered in top-load washing machines lose seven times as much microfibers as the same jacket in front load washers, according to studies.
