I took some polo shirts to the cleaners and noticed that when I got them back, the collars were flattened. They no longer stand up. Is there way to get them to stand back up or are they stuck like this?

Fused collar stays = no no

spend the little bit of extra time and money to have them hand stitched to the collar
