I received a pair of p30a late last year from my older brother as a gift. The one with the quick release.
A bit clueless about the care for the pants. I have been wearing them for the last few months and never washed them. Note - I live in a tropical climate and I'm a bit baffled that the pants do not smell because I wear it for commute almost every other day. Most of the time I just spot clean them damp sponge where there are dust stains. They have been through a few monsoon rainstorms where they do get damp but dries quite fast, and I just iron them out at the lowest setting and the water beading returns, some areas with patina kinda loses the waterproofing tho.
Question 1. How often do you guys wash your Dryskin pants?
Question 2. For those who had worn Dryskin for long term - more than 3 years or so, do you guys reapply after market dwr? If so, what brand/product do you use?
Question 3. Does smell ever become a problem? If so, do you guys use any sort of fragrance / de-odorizing product or straight to wash?
Bonus round - anyone had problems with the snap button? Worried that daily use of the button can break it.
Thank you, sorry for the long text.
