I am very thankful this company shipped in plastic because I'd have had ruined fabric no doubt the way this pack was obviously soaked & destroyed. Thankfully fabric was perfect & gorgeous. Just stunk bad. I aired it outside yesterday all day & it didn't seem so bad last night, so I'm thinking it might have been because of the double wrap when USPS rewrapped in plastic after being damp. My husband suggests spritzing with Fabreeze to get rid of any residual odor, but there really isn't too much now. I think washing will do the trick at this point.
