I let them air dry and then ironed them with a really cool iron but they still feel horrible.

Is there anything I can do or is there no way back

No way back I don't think...sorry

Erm. I don't think there's probably going to much you can do as biological detergent actually degrades the fibres

Sorry Sad

Handwash them with Persil silk and wool. Use fabric conditioner in the final rinse then hang them dripping wet on a line to dry. Iron them while they're still damp. That may work!
