I bought some dirt cheap button downs today to wean myself off of frumpy t shirts and they all have plastic collar things? I should take these out right? lolOriginally Posted by effec
In theory those flimsy things are to hold the collar in shape. But in cheap shirts, they are so crappy that they do almost nothing. You're better off buying metal collar stays.

I like to use brass collar stays, the plastic ones don't hold up well and don't always give your collar that straight edged look it should. My promlem is that I forget to take them out when doing the laundry and like socks for most people they disapear by the time i'm finished, I have lost many a good pair that way.

My fiance bought me monogrammed sterling collar stays. It may be something i really don't need but at least I never forget to take them out.
