filter sock

[Salty4]

Does anyone know of an adaptor for innovative marine filter socks so I can buy traditional round ones instead of the rectangular ones that are much stiffer and difficult to clean?

Following. I just started an IM 20 and I hate these square plastic socks.

hopping into this thread because in the same boat with these socks. Has anyone tried to clean them? I have been saving up a collection of these IM20s and trying to figure out if I can bleach/clean them to reuse. In the past I've done it just as a bleach load in the washer and good rinses before use but can't do that with these- plus I don't want to use bleach so need to find an alternative method...
