Folder Bags for Shirts for work worth it?

Irish Gunner

Have read the methods for putting a shirt in bag rolling, folding etc but no matter what they still come our creased. Ok you say buy a non ironed shirt but would not be convinced with them. No Place to leave them in work.

Was looking at one of These.

Anyone got one of these or any method they have for getting a shirt into work and taking it out uncreased...

Ziplock sandwich bags.

Seen this in the subforum, worth a punt maybe, I just let them be creased but I have no sense of shame.

I normally just fold them and then roll and they're grand. If you really wanted to, you could roll/fold it and stick it in some sort of lunchbox so it doesn't get squashed, rather than pay 20-30 quid for some gadget.

Non iron shirts, marks and spencers.

I usually iron, fold and roll them and they're fine - depends a bit on the material though (100% cotton will wrinkle no matter what) but you can get non iron shirts that still need to be ironed but don't wrinkle as easily. You need to roll them tight after folding them.

I fold them (not rolled) and put in a plastic reusable shopping bag in my messenger bag. keeps them crease free on my 12k cycle.

My back pack has an inner section for a laptop - a folded shirt slips in there and stays fine on a 18k odd commute. On a really wet day I'll put it in a plastic bag just to be 100% dry.

If I open it out and it's a mess, a v-neck jumper can hide anything. :pac:

My uncle has the product in the original post and he commutes by motorcycle with a backpack and it works for him! He rolls a suit, gadget for the shirt and tie and shoes in the bag and wears leathers on the bike... he has it down to a fine art.. suppose everyone is different and works out their own ways.... I know plenty who cycle and use the tight roll and ziplock bag method. If you roll it very tight it wont crease once it's kept tight. It takes a bit of practice but it works. I did it for a month straight last summer and it worked everyday once I practiced it!

Hi there
I've been using an A4 Ring Binder for the last few years.
When folded neatly, the ironed shirt will fit (almost) perfectly.
No problems with creases.

Think CyclingPlus had a tip saying folding a shirt around a clipboard and clipping it would do the job - maybe cover with a plastic bag? Never tried it mind, I drop a few shirts to the dry cleaners near work each week.

Leave an iron in work?

I have one of these - was given as a present

It's a fold and roll up. It's narrow enough to fit in my narrow running bag.

It does the job and I get my trousers in there too.
