Troubleshooting
Shirt feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and cold water. Avoid harsh detergents. Ironing or steaming according to care instructions should restore softness.
Pleats are losing their shape
Carefully iron the pleats while the shirt is slightly damp, or use a steam iron. Ensure proper storage, such as hanging or folding neatly, to maintain pleat definition.
Fabric appears wrinkled after wear
This is common with 100% cotton. Gently steam the garment or iron on a low setting to refresh the fabric. Consider carrying a travel steamer for touch-ups on the go.
