Yeah, that'll work.  Or just don't wash it.  Unless there is poo on it.

I have never washed my gear, ever.  

Now uniforms on the other hand, yes all the time.
Though, if I were some how possessed to wash my gear, then I would do as SGT. Keenan suggests.

You can machine wash, just no spinning, that degrades the urethane coating. Bucket and detergent works well too.

+1, besides i doubt your rocking gear that contains soft armor or anything, so that should be fine. but thats only if you HAVE to wash it.  I've never washed my gear other than my utilities. and boots.

how i was told to wash my gear was to get a dry wire brush and just brush it out. then if you want you can wash it but i grab a hose and hose it off. then i hang dry it and run it through another dry wire brush.
