Well they were gifts and I'm too old to break them in with work. Giving the washing machine  another try. Used 2 cups vinegar and washed for 15 minutes with nine golf balls mixed in the load. Let soak for 3 hours.     Finished wash cycle with the vinegar mix.   Mixed a little detergent and downy fabric softener and washed another cycle. Golf balls are getting really clean. Got it in the dryer now on low heat with the same golf balls.   A little noisy upstairs. See how it works in a couple hours.

        Oh they are the hard old Top Flites.  They should beat up the jacket a little.



I wish I had your problems.

I have tried them all. Multiple times. Anyone that claims that Berne, Key, or anything else that doesn't say Carhartt is just as good does not work in them. Nothing else lasts under hard use, and it's not even close.

If this latest endeavor doesn't break them down enough to make them usable, please find someone to give them to before wrecking them any further.
