A few years ago a friend gave me a pair of silk boxers as an XMAS present, and I LOVED them! However, I quickly found them a pain/mystery to wash. I put that first pair in with the laundry, and they quickly started to shread/fall apart. After I bought a few pair on my own, I bought one of those mesh bags that women put their bras/etc. in when they put clothes in the washer, but they too quickly started th shread/fall apart. I don't have the time/patience/know-how to do any laundry by hand in the sink. Does anyone have any other tips for how to wash silk boxers/undies? I LOVE the feel of them, they keep me semi-hard all day long! hehe
