When I was in the Army, my shirts always came out starched and flat as a board. That was over 25 years ago. I loved it! I've been trying to find a local laundry that can at least press the shirt with sharp creases in the sleeves. Other than a few places in midtown Manhattan that can get it right, I have to pay $2.50 extra for "hand finishing." Basically it means they have to iron the shirt after it comes out of the washing process.
One tailor told me that not all laundries have the right kind of pressing machine. There seem to be several kinds, and most don't crease the sleeves. They make the sleeves into cylindrical tubes.
Any info on this issue? Thanks!
