How to clean Gore Tex?
My suit needs a deep cleaning. How do I clean the Parka and Bibs?

I'm not sure, but I know don't throw it in the washer and then dryer. My buddy did that and ruined a 100MPH suit. It leaved like a sieve after that.

Did you look at the back of the tags for care instructions?

Should be a care instructions label on the inside lining of the jacket.
I have Cabela's Gore Tex rain gear and the care label says: Machine wash, warm, sperately, rinse throughly. DO NOT USE BLEACH OR FABRIC SOFTNER Steam iron - warm. Can also be dry cleaned - CLEAN DISTILLED SOLVENT MUST BE USED. |

Joolz-wash it in warm water with powder soap, no fabric softener or bleach. Tumble dry on low heat, but I like to let mine just air dry.

I would hand wash, washing machines will kill the durability and waterproofness..
