Anyone else hate it when the collar of your undershirt gets fubared?

[Wanescotting]

When this happens I throw the shirt away.

That is what I do.

Buy better tshirts. I've found that undershirts from from manufacturers like Hanes are thin, so cheaper to buy, but ruin a lot faster than shirts from a clothing store, like Jcrew or Banana Republic. You do pay 3x as much for the thicker and more durable clothing, though.

Advice?

Try ironing with Niagra, works for me. It also depends on the specific type of T-shirt. Are these undershirts or casual T-shirts? If they are undershirts do not let them hang on the hanger, fold them up and store them on a shelf or drawer. Leaving them on a hanger will allow gravity to stretch out the collar and cause it to curve in on itself.

You iron yout T-shits and hang them on a hangar? What an asshole!!

j/k

I really think it could be how you're taking your shirts off. I used to grab by the collar and yank them over my head thus stretching out the collar. Now I pull my arms out of the shirt first and avoid all collar contact the result is a non ruined shirt! And yes it really pisses me off when my collar gets messed up.

I always have trouble with the bottom of my tshirts, they get all messed up. Never had trouble with the collar.

Then again they are cheapy hanes or FTL, so as above said, thinner material = ruins faster.

EDIT: that was wierd. I swore i hit "edit" and not "quote"....

Many dry cleaners do offer a service called Bundled laundry service. This is where they do your laundry for you and charge by the pound. S/he could be referring to this...

Costo undershirts, they're better than most.

And seriously... quit getting them dry-cleaned, that's just stupid.

Costco t-shirts are very high quality, agreed.

yep, I had the same problem and do the same thing you do when taking off the undershirts. It works
