Keep your shirt looking as good as the day you bought it with these tips...
Washing Instructions
- Undo all buttons before washing to minimise strain on the stitches holding the button onto the shirt.
- Cold or warm machine wash.
- Do not tumble dry.
- Iron the shirt while it is still damp with the iron on a medium to hot setting - this will give the smoothest, most professional finish. While it may seem fiddly, it's easier than re-dampening the shirt for ironing once it has dried.
- Begin ironing from the tips at the back of the collar and iron towards the centre. Turn over and iron the front of the collar also from the tips to the centre. This will help avoid creasing at the front of the collar..
- After ironing, place the shirt on a hanger to air, with the top button fastened.
- Starch: Should not be necessary with White Shirt Shop shirts. The fine Italian fabric should provide enough form without it.

§ White shirts need a bit of extra care. These tips will help you keep your white shirt looking sparkling white for longer
§ Only wash white with white. If you don't have enough white clothes to justify a separate load, especially considering water shortages, consider handwashing.
§ Ensure any underarm deodorant has fully dried before putting on your shirt. If you are concerned about perspiration stains, give the aea a quick spray of stain remover and handwash that evening.
§ Dress Shields are available from White Shirt Shop. These protect the underarm of the shirt from deodorant and perspiration stains - often the first thing to reduce the appearance of a white shirt and can be difficult to remove once they appear.
§ Even if you only wear the shields when you wear your White Shirt Shop shirt, you will not regret it in 2 years when your shirt still looks new!
