Washing a coverall

How do you guys wash your coverall in order to avoid color loss and shrinkage? cold water in a washing machine or else?

I don’t wash. I washed when first got them. Haven’t since. They don’t smell. But I would wash cold and let dry outside

If they’re mainly Cotton, only washing them in Hot water then drying them in on the heat setting will shrink them.

mine don’t smell too much either but I literally did a sauna in it last sunday since we had about 40 degrees and was very humid, I think I better wash it inside especially

yeas it’s a Dickies made of thick cotton, so you suggest cold water too?

I wash all my clothes in cold and just air dry

Alright, thank you for the tip, I’ll follow your suggestions :wink:

I’m tall and shirts and pants shrink too easy

If you dont want them to shrink, wash them in cold water in the machine, then let them dry on the clothesline . Hot water and hot dryer machine cycles are what shrink cotton

I’m slightly over 6" with boots on, and my model was a Tall 48, I had to cut down the legs a bit and adjust the width, legs are still largish but they are ok, the upper body such as shoulders and neck was fine out of the box
