I’m gonna be the Debbie downer and mention that no-iron clothes have synthetics in them, the washing of which is a major contributor to the microplastics problem.

Lol who said anything about specific garments? We just wear our clothes wrinkled and no one cares. My linen shirts looked wrecked for an hour or so and then the wrinkles fall out, for instance.

Yeah that’s linen for you. People don’t wear it much anymore sadly so they don’t get that they just look wrinkled. I love linen shirts though.

All you gotta do it hang the shirts up, guys. That’s it. Gravity is nature’s iron.

no-iron clothes have synthetics in them

most my clothing is 100% cotton, and I have never ironed once I left my parent’s home.

If I have to choose between keeping nature around and not having to buy an iron again, is gonna be a tough choice.

No iron clothes is a lie. They say no iron on the label in the store, but they tell you to iron in on the care label.

Hanging them up wet rather than putting them in the dryer will get most wrinkles out, especially if you smooth/stretch the collar, placket and cuffs

Wool, cotton, etc, all don’t need ironing. Just don’t over dry and hang them up right away.
