RE: More ammo for the wife.
I personally have a Browning Hydro Fleece outfit with the Gore-Tex Supprescent lining and they say you can' t hurt the Supprescent lining by washing it. It' s made different than conventional carbon clothes, and that' s why I bought the Supprescent instead of Scent-Lok or Scent Blocker. Your best bet to care for your clothes is like Tax Lawyer said, only wash em' when you need to. Use clothes wash for carbon lined clothes. Store in scent free bags, such as the ones Hunters Specialties makes. The lining may be scent free but the outer shell of the clothes still absorbs scent like normal clothes, so when you are done hunting put the outfit immediately back in the storage bags. You can re-activate the carbon in the lining by putting them in the dryer and running it on high for like 40 minutes.
