I just bought a Lora Piana polo, and it says "Dry Clean". This is a 100% cotton, seems odd to dry clean it. Can this be hand washed, or possibly in a woolite bag?

That seems mighty pretentious of it to be dry clean only... I'm sure at the very least you can hand wash and hang dry it.

What about those "home dry-clean" that you can put in the drier?

Those any good?

I got some dryel pads at the local super market, and paired them with a Woolite bag and ran it through my drier on low for 30 mins. Worked like a charm!
