How To Avoid Ironing Your Work Shirts
Save yourself time and money!
Unlike women, men who work in office type jobs have a limited range of clothing options. Suits or trousers and shirt are basically the options while women can wear this or skirts or different types of trousers as long as they look smart. While some women may say that this makes life easier for men, the fact is that the grass always looks greener on the other side of the wardrobe.<br/><br/> The bane of most men's lives though is not the fact they have limited options; it is the fact that they have to iron their endless cycle of shirts every week. You can't really wear a shirt for more than just one day is it gets sweaty or dirty or smelly though the course of a day so you have to wash it, but that always leads to ironing.<br/><br/> Iron no more though as here are a few ways you can avoid ironing completely:<br/><br/> No iron shirts<br/><br/> One easy solution is to replace all your regular shirts with the special ones that supposedly require no ironing. These look just like normal shirts but are made with different materials that don't allow the threads to get wrinkled as they dry.<br/><br/> Unfortunately, as perfect as this solution might sound, many people really don't like the feel of these shirts as the material makes them feel a lot less soft. Decide for yourself.<br/><br/> Cover Up<br/><br/> Another simple solution is to just cover up your shirt. If you only have to wear a shirt to work then this is fine and you can just wear a jumper over the top. If you have to wear a jacket and tie as well though this may feel a bit too hot and restrictive. You could in this situation wear a waistcoat, though if you then remove your jacket you may show off your creased sleeves underneath.<br/><br/> Start a trend<br/><br/> You could make a stand against the whole ironing practice. It is quite bizarre when you think about it: rubbing a hot metal device over your clothes to make them flat. What is the point really? Get a team together and start wearing wonderfully creased shirts to work every day and see what your bosses say. You may just convince them to join you and to make wearing creased shirts if you want, a ground breaking new policy. You can always add Lyle and Scott polo shirts or maybe some Farah Clothing into your work repertoire too while you're making a stand.<br/><br/> Laundry Service<br/><br/> If there is no getting around it you could always just pay for a laundry service. You can drop off your dirty work shirts with them and pick them up all perfectly ironed. Costs money though…<br/><br/><br/><br/>
