wash it in warm water and then hang it, do not throw in the dryer.. if it is all white or u dont mind getting some stitching becoming white, add some bleach ;)

Whatever you do, Don't dry it in the washer. It will mess with the fibers in the fabrics and cause the gear to fit weird and different.

Waterproofing?  I can imagine this would be bad.

Use dry detergent or nikwax so it wont mess up the breathability/ waterproofness of the fabric.
