A Cut Above pants any users?

If we can't iron the wool pants how do we get out the wrinkles around the crotch area? I guess I'm a bit anal but I usually go over them really fast after each day on a low setting and don't seem to get the shine. But after reading this maybe I'll stop. The pillow case idea sounds good so does hanging upside down. Good tricks!

Easy. Just wear the hat.

Huh?

Just follow along for a minute.

Wearing the hat without a blazer just looks goofy. Don't bother debating, it just does.

So, if you gotta wear the hat, you gotta wear the blazer to look sharp. So what if you're sweating like a pig in the thing, that's why they invented Old Spice.

Blazer covers crotch area that wrinkles three seconds after you take the pants off of the hangar.

No ironing needed, extra sleep in the morning, fewer dry cleaning bills.

Plus, you make a little kid's day every time you smile and say "hello."

Ergo, the hat rules! :)

Bwahaha. Funnnnny guy! Been flying much?

I'm on my third DH in two days. Oh boy.
 
I've been working so little it's criminal.

If I go out at all it's on a cake 2-day: Leave in the evening, come back the next morning.

I actually caught myself yesterday thinking "Man, I sorta wish I was flying more."

Then I quickly got over that insanity.

Shoot, my spare pants still have a dry cleaner's tag on them. And a wrinkled crotch.
 
Just Woollited my suit. Doesnt have that 5 day trip funk on it and took out most spills. This will work every other dry clean.

I'd be complaining if I had to drop my pants off at a dry cleaner's every time I wanted them cleaned, myself. Why put yourself through that kind of hassle.

I find laundry and ironing a hassle. I'm lucky and a cheap dry cleaner is around the block. I just drop off and pick up on my way home from other job on days off.
 
I usually hit up Sears on triple coupon day. The quadruple-knit in the "Toughskins" aisle serve well. They can take a near-miss from a tactical nuke and not wrinkle, and the polyester induced skin rash is manageable with a liberal coating of Desitin ointment.

Oh how I could set this up for a great joke but I don't work for a career airline yet so it will stay with me. :(

I don't get crotch wrinkles, but I'm also sub-continental Asian, Cory.... :(
 
Try Jos A Banks. They sell suit separates that are really sharp, and are easy to maintain, albeit DCO. I just purchased three pair pleated front trousers, decent price with the alterations and everything.
 
SO is 'jumbo shrimp'. Notwithstanding, suit separates have become popular so that you can choose the pant style you like, and not be pinned down to the stock flat front trousers. JCP also has nice trousers under their Stafford line.

Wow...alrighty.

At least I know my son will be the best dressed young adult going to an interview considering the horrible sense of the most basic gentlemanly dressing standards.

Suit separates...what is this? Mommy's shopping day for the boy? Jesus.

Pleats are not in gentlemen. Unlike the hipster fashion creed, clothing styles from the 80s are not crying to return - most especially not pleats.
