I have washed mine more than once. I was told not to use any bleach or detergents containing bleach is all.

I wash my Sparco 5-layer suit all the time. Here are the instructions:

Washing instructions: If you wash your suit, Sparco recommends hand washing or washing it in on a delicate cycle in the washing machine inside a garment wash bag with COLD water. Please make sure that the belt and collar are closed on the suit, to prevent the velcro from causing damage to the nomex fabric. Woolite soap is recommended as it is a non-abrasive detergent. DO NOT use bleach or anything similar. When drying the suit, always let the suit drip dry, indoors (out of the sunlight).

We wash ours with Woolite and cold water usually mid season and at the end of the year. I doubt it did any damage.
