After searching around for dress shirts on a budget, I noticed that a number of individuals have a preference for Brooks Brothers (BB) classic cotton dress shirts as opposed to their non-iron offerings.

I recently purchased some point collar dress shirts from BB in both classic cotton and non-iron cotton so that I could compare the two. The classic cotton shirts are about $20 cheaper, so if they are otherwise superior, that's great for my wallet. However, I honestly can't tell a huge difference between the two. In terms of comfort, for example, they feel very similar to me.

Perhaps BB's classic cotton luxury shirts are superior, but at the lower price point, is there really a difference in quality? At the entry prince point, do you prefer classic cotton or non-iron cotton? Why?
