Does anyone have a good way of washing their wristbands so that they don’t tear up or the cover doesn’t get cloudy? I use the gentle cycle of the washing machine and cold water. I also let them air dry but they still tear up and get cloudy. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

What I used to do was hand-washed them, light detergent with water but that got old fast. Anyways after you machine wash it, I recommend using paper towels, push them in between the cover slots so it can absorb the water. I would also use q-tips if needed. As I type this, I just realized I can use my team manager do this.

We had white bands one year, and simply just soaked them in a bucket with a bleach/soap combination. And then rinsed and air dried them.
Those seemed to work pretty well.

We had some get cloudy after players accidentally put them in the washing machine, but eventually they turned out fine. We left it up to the player to decide if they wanted to wash them.

Buy menthol rubbing alcohol (green mint stuff at walmart). Buy about 2-3 gallons, dump in a 5 gallon bucket. Put 15-20 wrist bands in there at a time, let them soak for 2-3 minutes, wring them out and let air dry. 2-3 gallons will last most of the year.
I use this stuff on my kids hockey and football gear, especially teh hockey gloves, worst stink in the world. This kills stink and germs.
