Washing a Grosgrain type fabrics, aka N1 jackets

I was wondering if there was any existing know-how out there pertaining to the washing of deck jackets. I have one that has a nice set-in patina but a terrible funk that needs to be removed (read:odor). I usually am against messing with hard-earned patina, but this harsh of an odor is a different matter.

 

Any thoughts on how best to wash or soak this thing. Any previous experience observing that it looses its color, or easily loose/shed its pile lining?

I'm contemplating throwing it into a light oxyclean bath and allowing it to soak first inside out (alpaca on the exterior), then rightside-in with jungle cloth as the outershell.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
