The problem with this is that most technical gear, like pads, are made with neoprene and impact hardening foam. Neither of which can be washed hot.
If the pad itself is removable, your options increase, you can then wash the ‘sleeve’ frequently (at a temperature low enough not to damage it), so it doesn’t build up the deep skin/oil/ bacterial/mold/yeast culture
And then you can wash the pad it self with some (dish)soap, and dry it.
