Washing Jacket

I have a tripp jacket, that I love, but I don't wear it often. I am scared to wash it, because I don't want it to fade. Every detergent claims not to fade clothes, but we all know thats not always the case. Any ideas?

I use this stuff:

on a cold/cold setting, then dry on extra-low heat. Seems to be the best thing for black clothing I've found so far - the Woolite Dark is utter shit.
You might want to air dry the jacket though.

Urgh, not Tripp. I can count the recent stuff they made that's actually tasteful on one hand, if not two. (Anyone know about their 80s stuff?) And of course, there's also the fact that if bought cheaply, it will fall apart quite quickly.

Cheer Dark with cold water can be an option but if not, there's always buying something nicer from a thrift or department store. Please seriously consider the second option.

lol, Thanks Lolly, but I already have the jacket. Bought it about a year go. It's done quite well for me, as has all my tripp clothing. If anything on them is messed up, its my fault.

I agree its pricey, and I wish they had more for men, but its a company that I can pretty much buy from anywhere, and the clothes make a statement. lol, that statement has changed over the years, but so do we.
