Hey Derek,
You got a good one! I love my chocolate workman's too. Even buying it "previously owned" it was stiffer than I like for the things I do in it...sit in an office.
Followed the advice of the board and washed it six times on gentle cycle, cold water, with unscented Downy. That helped.
What worked was when I washed it in Downy and decided to stop the washer cycle when the tub was full of water and Downy. My well besotted brain forgot about it and wound up soaking it over night. That worked well and didn't harm the kilt in any way. Just rinced it in the morning. Nice and soft now.
If I didn't do this already :confused: here are some pics of my UK Chocolate Workmans....
