yea thats what sucks about white and khaki pants, they get sooo dirty....usually u shouldnt wash the pants in regular wash because the waterproofing can come out, so tell him to go get them dry-cleaned, and they can prolly take out the stains for u.....wurd

Dry cleanings the way to go. But afterward you might have to spray them down with some water-proofing spray (scotchgaurd, etc.) Sometimes drycleaning effects the original waterproofing.

yeah i definetely wouldn't dry clean them. ruins the waterproofing. I have really light grey pants and have gotten them dirty a bit obviously. wash them by themselves with powdered detergent only. that should work, if not? well then youred fucked, im sorry.






I feel bad for people who don't drink, cause when they wake up in the morning, thats the best the're going to feel all day

i have white orage pants and i nutted a dirty rail once and got tons of corrosion and rust on the legs and i used oxyclean and it worked like magic to get the stains out. just mix a little in a bowl and use a brush or a sponge to scrub it out and then wash it regularly.

where can you buy waterproofing stuff and what's it called. ive used leather waterproofer on suede shoes before...is it anything like that

nikwax. cleans and restores waterproofness. get it at outdoor sporting goods stores, like REI or EMS.

^That marker idea is sick. I've got light grey orage pants which are awesome but stain really easily. That oxyclean idea sounds good.
For re-waterproofing i recommend silicone spray. That stuff is sick. I sprayed my fleece gloves and hiked a pipe all day and my hands were dry at the end.
