How To Iron a Shirt -Step-by-Step - 2 Angles - From Start To Finish

About this video

The Gazette team provides a comprehensive guide to properly ironing dress shirts, covering techniques for cuffs, sleeves, collars, shoulders, front placket, pockets, and back. They emphasize using short, controlled pressing motions rather than broad sweeping strokes, and recommend specialized tools like sleeve boards for achieving crisp, wrinkle-free results without unwanted creases.

Key takeaways

• The Gazette team advocates starting with cuffs and sleeves, pressing from inside to outside, and using a sleeve board for superior results with fewer wrinkles and properly maintained pleats
• The Gazette team recommends pressing collars from outside to center on each side to avoid creases, and notes that handmade shirts may have intentional rippling along seams that should be preserved
• The Gazette team stresses that successful ironing relies on short, controlled motions with adequate downward pressure rather than long, fast movements, and suggests ironing multiple shirts in one session to justify setup time
