Hi all,
I did a search but didn’t see much.
I had been casually looking for schooling breeches and when I had to have my saddle repaired, I happened upon Arista breeches with leather knee patches on sale for 25% of original price. I got two pair. They will just be schooling breeches.
Washing instructions say wash in cold water with a leather cleaner. No fabric softener. No dryer. I picked up a small container of leather cleaner but I can see how pricey this will get to wash schooling breeches.
How do you wash breeches with leather knee patches? What happens if you wash them with normal laundry detergent inside out? Or with laundry and fabric softener? What happens if you put them in the dryer?
Thanks!
