How do you wash your speedos?

I normally just hand wash them in fresh water and hang them to dry.

Sometimes I add a product like suit solutions that helps neutralize the chlorine or I have one thats tailored to remove salt and sand.

I know some people put them in the washing machine but I've always been hesitant to do that.

I rinse in warm water, possibly using a little hand wash soap powder if grimy, always hang up to dry, never machine dry.

Rinse in fresh water. Squeeze excess water out, then hang dry. Sometimes a drop or two of Woolite cold solution.

For a couple of my off-brand super-cheap ones, I sometimes just throw them in the wash, especially if I had used them as underwear for a day, then hang-dry. Otherwise I just rinse them in warm water

ive been thinking about doing that to a few of my cheaper ones

but dont want them to get all stretched out regardless of how cheap they were

been thinking about putting them in some kind of lingerie bag or theres a few different kinds of like bra washing bags/balls that seemed like they'd work well to protect them in the washing machine

After swimming, I just shower with it on and let the body wash and clear water flush it out, then hang it over the shower head to air dry. Seems adequate for a long life of the material. I don't squeeze it out as I think that may help break down the material over time

I do the same as Lapswimmer.

I take them into the shower with me with a bit of Dr Bronner's (extremely mild soap), making sure to keep the water temp lukewarm.
