Is there such a thing as a non-iron school polo shirt?

Or non-iron soft fabric blouse? I'm looking for light blue ones. Any ideas?

My DC children wear non iron polo shirts - they're called creased polo shirts

I thought all those airtexy (is that the word)? polo shirts were non-iron.

why on earth would you iron a school polo shirt - it'll be creased and covered with felt-tip and various other indeterminate stains within minutes ( if not seconds)

I just wash them, bung them in the dryer or hang them up depending on the weather, then pop on a child

If you partially tumble dry polo shirts and then hang them on a hanger to dry, they definitely don't need ironing.

Just don't iron them. It's not obligatory.

If you tumble dry M&S ones you'll have to buy about six years older than your DC's actually age(s) though.

For DDs, pinafore dresses cover a multiple of non-ironing/forgetting-to-stain-treat sins. Not sure there's an alternative for DSs, except stapling them into their jumpers, which seems a tad unfair.

Very few people iron them

Just be brave...step away from the iron....

I iron them on the day they have their school photos taken.
