Has anyone out there bought one of these shirts? I bought 4 this year because i usually LOVE banana republic shirts for work, but this new no-iron fabric is weird to me. It made me itch all day long (for all of the shirts) and when i wash it, it strangely attrracts fuzz (or maybe the fuzz is coming off the shirt?). I’m just wondering if anyone else is having the same problem. (And to be honest, i don’t think there’s anything “no-iron” about it – i had to iron it like any other shirt…) Anyone else having issues with these shirts?!?!
These shirts are definitely *NOT* “no-iron” shirts!! I just got mine out of the dryer and they’re all terribly wrinkled – ! (I haven’t worn them yet, so I don’t know if I’ll start itching when I do.)
All in all, I am very disappointed.
I guess I should’ve tested one before buying 3.
Oh well. Back to the ironing board.
