Maybe he should put cloth tape from CVS over his entire body so he won't have to wash any of his clothes or even himself for 5 wearings.

How do you avoid laundering dress shirts just for the collar?

Solution? Get some cloth tape from CVS, and line your collar.
You can now wear the shirts 5+ times before laundering.

Absolute nonsense and quite disgusting. Shirts need to be washed after EVERY wearing.

You obviously try way too hard.... relax... a little.

This or just a long cloth so he could wrap around his body and become a mummy!

Yes, it's called OCD. You can get medication for this. Personally, I can't waste time with dry cleaners when the shirt is still immaculate and crisp after 3 or 4 wears, and there is just a little staining in the collar. This cloth tape is something I tried out this week, and so far, it seems to work. Some people will find the idea silly, others will find it brilliant. That is the Reevolving way! Also, if you don't have non-iron shirts, you simply have no idea what I'm talking about. They look PERFECT even after 5-6 wears.

you ever heard of soaking your shirts yourself? also, you may think that they look good, but people around you probably think you stink!

I wore a shirt twice over the past two days. I felt so disgusting by the end of the day. Despite wearing a clean undershirt my body felt like a petri dish. But it was my birthday so whatevz.

I don't get people that do this! Does the OP own 3 shirts?
Solution...buy more shirts....
Just becasue I wear boxers and don't take a dump during the day or fart does not mean that I can just take em off, put them back into my dresser and wear later in the week...Really..WTF!

Surely the entire point of non-iron shirts is that you could simply wash and hang them every time you wear them and not have to iron them? That's the payoff for the carcinogen exposure.

The only reason I take shirts to the cleaners rather then wash myself is the damn ironing.
