I was wondering what is the best way to launder CADPAT. I have heard many different things so I thought I'd ask on here to get an idea.
You sound angry at people trying to take care of their stuff.The combat uniform need not be treated like some sensitive ball-gown. It is a wash and wear garment, full-stop. No turning inside-out, no "gentle" wash cycle", no hang-drying. Wash your CADPAT unform as you would any other robust item of clothing. If the camouflage pattern fades away before the material wears out, then you are in in decidedly "sedate" trade where the concealment properties of the uniform are largely irrelevant in any case.
The Combat uniform is meant to be worn hard, and treated hard. I've been wearing CADPAT since late 2000, and I have zero complaints. And that includes putting the 1st-issue "white tag" uniforms through 6 months of "boil and burn" laundering in Afghanistan. It held up just fine for my purposes.
Stop fussing over your uniforms. Wear them, wash them, and carry on. When they fall apart, exchange them. We're not exactly talking rocket science here.....
Sheeesh!

Logistik hates this one trick!!!I noticed a little bit in the dress regs about how when a new uniform is approved we are no longer allowed to wear the old without the CDS approval. Need to reach out to him to get my approval for wearing uniforms 2-3 versions out of date.
