When I say waterproof clothing I don't mean the sort you put on over clothes I mean the actual clothing, trousers and tops such as the camo stuff you buy from army surplus or Realtree.
Is the material it is made out of waterproof or is it a treatment that is applied afterwards that makes it waterproof and would, as a result, be washed off if it got a bit smelly and needed a wash?
I ask this because I have such a set made out of very soft material and as a result of catching a few pesky bream they have become a bit slimy in places and are developing a distinctive smell! It comes with no washing instructions incidentally but I would hand wash it rather than machine wash naturally.
