Hey everybody! Alright this is kind of a weird question and I hope I don't gross anyone out. I got a shammy for Christmas (LOVE IT) and I've been using it for about the past 3 monthes maybe 4 times a week. I ring it out as best I can, and store it (in the orginally little plastic tube) damp like the package says. However, lately it has been smelling kind of funny. Are you supposed to wash them? I have never washed mine, never thought I had too, but then it started smelling. It smelled when I first got it, and it's pretty much the same odor only a little stronger. Thanx!

p.s. Hope that's not to gross, of a weird question.
I had not considered the dreaded stinky funky vinegary chamois for meet usage but can see this as a definite possibility. I still think I'd have to wash it after every usage. You may have convinced me on meet usage only. For practice, still quite unusual unless you towel off between sets. I tell you what really spoils a swimmer - towel service at the gym.
