You could take it to the cleaners. Most offer shirt service.

Is there a specific one you are talking about? I’ve been rocking a couple wrinkle free brands for years now and they are great. Mizzen & Main is legit. Life has gotten better since I cut off the dry cleaners.

Gold label button downs are the best wrinkle free shirts.

You gotta take them out of the dryer right away.

The brooks brothers ones are pretty great. Wash and dry to damp. Hang them up and let them finish drying on the hangar and they still maintain their creases.

Jos A Bank wrinkle free is really wrinkle free (but like others said must be pulled from dryer quickly).

Low key the absolute best bang for the buck is Stafford (JC Penney store brand) oxford. Go on sale fairly often for $20

They are. I’ve never found deals on them so only have a few, but they are awesome shirts.

Take it out of the dryer as soon as it’s dry. If it’s still wrinkled, used Downey wrinkle release. Since one of our maids told us about the wrinkle release I’ve been carrying a small bottle on business trips. That and 10 minutes in a steamy bathroom and even the most stubborn wrinkles come out.

Some may be curious as to the chemical that makes shirts wrinkle free. It’s formaldehyde. I assume that if you die wearing one of those shirts, it makes the embalming process much more efficient.

I've liked the ones from Brooks Brothers and Charles Tyrwhitt. But the point of the collars always ends up bending in.

Brooks brothers shirts are great. Toss em in the dryer and they're good to go.

My nicer Eton shirts can't do that. They aren't wrinkle free.

I think most of them do pretty well but you've got to take them out of the dryer hot and hang them up.
