I iron my tshirts and shorts otherwise they look crinkley

[-] filcuk@lemmy.zip 16 points 4 days ago

Is everyone walking around with crumpled clothes? Or am I missing some critical life hack?

[-] brey1013@lemmy.world 17 points 4 days ago

Shake out, hang when wet, never iron again.

[-] IamAnonymous@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago

Take your clothes out of the washer immediately, untangle them if necessary, and put them in the dryer. Don’t just dump all the clothes from washer to dryer. Remove the clothes from the dryer as soon as it's done while they're still warm. Hang shirts on hangers and put away the pants. Lastly, only buy new shirts and pants that are iron-free.

I got into sewing so I do use an iron, but even then half the time I'm lazy and don't even press my seams. I'm not very good at sewing as a result, but I have a good time all the same.

Last time I ironed something was for a job interview

[-] everett@lemmy.ml 22 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

It's understandable they'd want to see your technique.

[-] bluewing@lemm.ee 16 points 4 days ago

Ironing clothes died long before millennials. Grandma quit ironing before you were born. Wrinkle Free shirts and pants started showing up in the 1970's and were common within the decade.

Source: I was there.

I'm Gen-X and I hate to break it to you, we had permanent press well before we had Millennials.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 16 points 4 days ago

Hopefully none of you are using suits lol

[-] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 19 points 4 days ago

Suits are only for special occasions, and even then I'm going to get it dry cleaned and they can worry about ironing in the bastard.

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 16 points 4 days ago

Suits and other "nice" clothes are designed to enforce class separation. Reject them. Although you should probably wear them to a funeral or wedding anyway, out of respect.

[-] iegod@lemm.ee 15 points 4 days ago

Oh shut it. Wear whatever you like.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 15 points 4 days ago

Idk I like to wear nice clothes. Right clothes for the right occasion of course

You guys don’t iron clothes?

I’m a millennial and I iron my clothes, how do you get the wrinkles out???? Teach me your secrets

[-] evasive_chimpanzee@lemmy.world 26 points 5 days ago

Fold your clothes immediately after drying, while they are still warm. Also, dryers that can add steam really help if you've got a few things that need wrinkle removal. Also, handheld steamers are cheap.

Mostly, avoid needing to iron by avoiding wearing formal business attire.

[-] Gabadabs@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 5 days ago

I don't get the wrinkles out

[-] capt_wolf@lemmy.world 17 points 5 days ago

Step outside into the heat and your sweat will instantly steam them out. Thanks global warming!

I like ironing my clothes though and if you show up to a formal family event with a shirt that looks like you rolled around in it, then I will offer to iron for you before the next time.

[-] AgentGrimstone@lemmy.world 15 points 4 days ago

I forgot I even had an ironing board in my closet. I haven't needed to use that thing in 10 years.

[-] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 15 points 4 days ago

I definitely have clothes I still need to iron. If I don't iron some of my button downs, they have a lot of wrinkles and look bad.

[-] Lifebandit666@feddit.uk 13 points 4 days ago

Sometimes I iron. Someone mentioned school uniform and yes.

But mainly I look at say a t-shirt and go "Meh" shrug and throw it on. Bang a leather jacket on and nobody knows it's wrinkled and they fall out.

Now we're having our 1 week of summer in the UK I'm having to iron my t-shirts because it's too hot for my jacket, but it's only a week.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 20 points 4 days ago

as a swede i am legally obligated to vomit at the idea of school uniforms

[-] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 12 points 4 days ago

I hate them too but unfortunately the vast majority of schools require them. It pisses me off how much time and energy is spent enforcing meaningless rules.
