From time to time Im expected to wear a shirt for work. Most days i can get away with wearing a polo shirt but as im a demonstrator I have to scrub up for exhibitions
Trying to get a pristine shirt into the office is fugggin impossible on a bike! Ive tried all sorts, wearing under bike gear, rolling it up, and now folding it neatly into a box and getting changed at work. How does everyone else get round it without looking like youve been dragged through a hedge backwards.
Wear a V-neck sweater over the top, that way only the collar and tie/neck area have to be pristinely ironed, know one will know the rest is creased to buggery!!
I’ve never had a problem with shirts and bike jackets? I wear a shirt most days to work. Try buying thicker shirts, they’ve got to be less prone to creasing.
Otherwise I guess you’re limited to dry-cleaners near work and then just leave shirts at work.
Keep 2 shirts in work ,use a collect and deliver shirt laundry service to ensure your washed and ironed shirts are in the office or wherever you want when you need em .
Google shirt service, there are a few companies that do it in and around london.
hahim the same! I try to avoid it all counts my boss even told me to have a shave the other day whats wrong with the rough look hey???
Ahhrr well the box aproach kinda works and as Im broke and cant afford laundry service and theyre company logo’d shirts I guess ill have to stick with it
One school I was working at insisted on me wearing a shirt etc so i left a couple there on hangers and took them home to change on weekends. I had my own office but i tended to get in same time as the kids so getting changed out of my leathers was up against the door!!
I wear a shirt every day. I buy the M&S Ultimate Non-Iron shirt - never ironed any of them - they don’t crease hardly at all, and if they do the creases fall out very quickly.
E4 and trendy dont go together. I think you ment look like a kn*b!
As for the shirt issue. If your shirt is creased after wearing it under a bike jacket, hold it above a boiling kettle. The steam will bring all but the most hardy creases out.
I think a previous comment, of leaving at least one ironed in work is a top idea.
I also have to wear a shirt everyday as part of my uniform ,and have never had any problems with it being creased ,i just fold it up loosely put it in a helmet bag then it goes in to my lock bag which is attached to my seat ,get to work give the shirt a shake and its fine .
I just fold mine and slip it into the backpack. Still looks good when I get to work. Problem is I have to wear the backpack … not the trendiest of looks on the bike
