That's not for egocentric reasons though - I just haven't got round to it. In fact it never occurs to me to wash it, it doesn't smell or look dirty and sweaty (we ladies don't sweat as much. lol). My gi, on the other hand, is washed and ironed every week, I like that to look neat and clean at all times. I'm always shocked at how many people wear grubby, yellowing, ill-fitting, un-ironed, smelly gis. Yuk!Sue Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16008609198511182782noreply@blogger.com
