Anyone have any tips for do's and don'ts of washing nomex gloves?  I don't want to mess up the leather or shrink them.

I was a OH-58 Crew Chief, all I did was toss my Nomex gloves in the wash too. If I remember right they did fit tight at first, but strech back out with time. It's nice to have them fit like a second skin.

Dirty? Just trade 'em in at supply!  One thing when washing nomex, detergent is not recommended.   It supposedly takes away from the fire retardantness (yeah, like that's a word.)I use a minimal amount every other wash when I'm washing my nomex pants, shirt, etc.
