the fibre doesn't end up de-laminated or clumped?

If you hand wash very gently (or just soak) in warm soapy water in the bath,
pressing them down gently in the water repeatedly while keeping them flat,
and then rinse gently, again flat, then let them drip dry flat, and dry out
on a hot sunny day, all the time flat, they might just survive (barring
pigeons). Using a washing machine (even on the shortest and gentlest
setting) and/or tumble dryer usually destroys them.

Don't you find they have collapsed beyond plumping after a few months?

Thanks - I do replace them - but thought I might be missing some pearl of
wisdom from the group.

Drying I find is an issue, sit them in front of a fan for 3 days, or
hang under a ceiling fan for 3 days. More of aproblem with feathers,
where this treatment is just enough.
