Ketchikan $29.99 jackets

Anyone purchase one of those $29.99 jackets that are in all the Ketchikan stores?  We got a couple and wore them throughout the cruise but then discovered the tag says clean with damp cloth, do not machine wash.   Anybody have one and put them in the washing machine anyway?  If so, did they come out ok?

You could try washing them on the gentle or delicate cycle, then hang dry.  It sounds like you really used the jackets while on the cruise, so if you divide the $30 cost by the number of times you wore the jackets, you might not feel bad if the jackets don't survive the machine washing.

 

Good luck.

Machine washing will probably destroy the water-resistant coating.
