Pilot Shirts???

If your more on a budget the Van Heusen shirts are alright, they dont winkle too bad but dont last as long. Ill have to look into the suggestions above, gotta look spiffy for those boxes!

They are not too bad, have two, it really depends how much you are gonna be wearing them, what sort of climate and the type of flying. I decided to spend a bit more but I still have them after using pretty much the same 3 shirts for 3 years, flying in 85+ weather with no A/C, I`m sure the Aviators I have would have not lasted this long and I would have spent more $ replacing them.

Yes, iron...as in, iron everyday. Keeps the shirt looking nice and you're able to steam out the smell of working in an airplane. Don't want to be one of those dumpy looking pilots with a shirt that's never seen an iron or much less bleach.

Actually Just using bleach with yellow a shirt, you have to use a bluing agent to whiten it right.

At most grocery stores they sell a line of products called: Rite Laundry treatment, they come in little boxes for many different uses, rust remover, dye,...take the ones for washing whites...works relly well

Bleach will actually make your shirt yellow over time.

Just wear a double breasted coat and all is groovy.

Everyday you're ironing?

Hell, Trick! Every day I'm shuffling!

Every girl's crazy about a sharp dressed man, er...I'm sexy and I know it....or whatever the white kids are saying these days.
 
PilotsShirts.com - I get the fitted/tapered cut. It makes you look sexy for the ladies... or eerrrrr, men. Don't ever let me catch any of you guys wearing white garbage bags also known as the "full cut" shirts. It looks sloppy. :)

From my experience these are very durable (I used them for rigorous 90 hr/mo turboprop flying the past 4.5 years) and the velcro flaps with the faux buttons are perfect for easy access to put your "Red Crew Log" book in there, along with earplugs, and flight attendants' phone numbers.
