Tips for Washing Polar Fleece

I have terrible trouble washing anything polar fleece. It always comes out with fluff which a clothes brush does little to fix. Any tips?

Handwash it!

Yes, do as Edie says, use cold water, wash garments inside out, and hang to dry. Try using a vinegar rinse in your wash to cut down on lint When buying new fleece items in the future, look for the micro-fleece. It stays nicer longer and doesn't attract and hang onto nearly the amount of lint, dog hair, etc.

All I have read recommends washing in COLD water.

Turn garment inside out before washing in warm water. Don't use the dryer; hang to dry on line.
