    I'm convinced after doing some reading that the mix I suggested will not harm the color on the clothing. 3% peroxide should not be strong enough to do anything to colors. I'd suggest trying it on one of the smaller and cheaper items and see if it even works. I think you'll be happy with it. It will clean skunk smell off a dog in short order...and phone cases (don't ask, lol)

    I'm guessing the tomato juice will stain the cloths. I would go with the carbon powder.

    I would do an extended presoak in normal laundry detergent and baking soda, run it thru 2-3 times and let it presoak for an hour each time.

    That is a lot of $$$ for hunting clothing, man! I would also call Sitka and ask.

    Odo-Ban is the stuff they use to get dog and cat pee out of stuff. Its a house-flipper's dream product.

    Go rent a ozone generator unit and use it in a shed or something...
    It would be cheaper than spending the gas to retrieve the other stuff you mentioned anyway.

    I was just doing some searching on Google and Vinegar came up often. 2 articles mentioned washing in a half to a full gallon of vinegar and then doing a stardard wash in scent killer. Maybe even soaking in the vinegar first would help as well.

    Dilution is the solution to pollution...just keep soaking and washing...it will come out eventually...a little dead down wind, vinegar, baking soda, all come to mind...you could also put it in a bag when dry with kitty litter as the clay will bond with the particles in the urine. Good luck...minor mishap...you didn't ruin your $1500 collection, you just wasted a lot of your time.

    I've heard that prolonged exposure to ozone can break down elastic materials...I think it was Lee Lakoski who made the claim.
