I just happened to be on the phone with Clam Corp and seen you're question so I asked them they say to wash on a gentel cycle and use a mild detergent and DO NOT USE FABRIC SOFTENR because it can damage the water proof abilities of the fabric . They said the best way to dry is let it hang dry but you can dry it on a low temperature setting if you need it faster .

Don't wash the bibs in the washing machine!  The padded butt will rip from the agitator!  Trust me! ;)  I hang them up in the shower & wash them off by hand with a little bit of laundry detergent.  Hang to dry.  As far as the jacket, I have last years grey suit, I take apart the 2 jackets, & toss them in the wash, dry on low & hang up to finish drying.
