gnarledcouleeYou just need to wash it 2-3 times for it to wash out, probably sooner with a higher temp wash.
From the fjallraven site:
-------------------------------------
Not until after two-three washes will the original Greenland Wax impregnation be completely washed out of your G-1000 garment, so you do not need to re-wax your garment after every wash. If you have washed a garment once and it feels like the wax has soaked into the fabric you can reactivate it by hanging it in a warm drying cabinet or ironing it on a low heat setting. The heat will draw the wax out of the fibres and you will be able to feel the difference when you take the garment out of the drying cabinet.
Without wax, G-1000 fabric is airier and has maximum ventilation. For this reason, it is often a good idea to wash the wax out of a garment before you use it in a warm climate, for example in the summer or before a trip to the tropics.
