I’m gonna be the Debbie downer and mention that no-iron clothes have synthetics in them, the washing of which is a major contributor to the microplastics problem.

    All you gotta do it hang the shirts up, guys. That's it. Gravity is nature's iron.

    But make sure you do so quickly after the dryer is done. Otherwise they'll cool down and the creases will set.

    Linen is supposed to be wrinkly, that's why it's so cool. It lets the breeze get between you and the fabric. Just hang it up wet, giving a few strategic tugs to smooth it out, especially the collar.

    Lol who said anything about specific garments? We just wear our clothes wrinkled and no one cares. My linen shirts looked wrecked for an hour or so and then the wrinkles fall out, for instance.

    If I have to choose between keeping nature around and not having to buy an iron again, is gonna be a tough choice.

    True, but tires are way, way worse.
