    Wear a jacket over the shirt, doesn’t matter where it’s out of style or dirty. Have you ever heard of an Indian dress called chudidhar? It has a shawl sort of thing called dupatta, which we can wrap anyway we want to. You can hide anything under it. Very useful I tell you. :-D

        Here's a question you will probably never see on the weekly poll that Chris does: I wake up this morning and realize I forgot once again to wash my work shirts in the laundry. So I need a work shirt to wear today which option would you choose? A) A ten year old work shirt, clean, still in one piece, but not exactly in style. B) A dirty, already worn once, work shirt that is newer more in style. C) Go to a store and buy one. D) Nothing you work from home, so there is no need for a work shirt. So what would you choose and why? Ben

        The sticky wall test is all that matters; throw at a wall, if it sticks don't wear it. Otherwise, wear it. (I'd go with A. Rather be comfortable, clean and unstylish than uncomfortable, dirty and stylish. Got a job to do and it isn't Male Model or Clothes Horse.)

          We do have Febreeze and an iron. Of course, it is too late now I am already at work. Ben

          The febreeze/iron combo seems to work pretty well. There is also a product (I think Downy makes it) that you spray to take out wrinkles. It works but I hate the smell of it.

                I like the idea, but I would have to wear a suit to wear a jacket. I had a nice jacket once, but I never wore it so I finally gave it away. Ben

                But what about the smell of sweat from old shirts particularly when you are in hot countries like India and have to wash your clothes on a daily basis? Bottles of deodarants might be required. :-D

                  It gets pretty hot here in MN during the summer as well. Of coures, not as hot as it does in India. I try not to wash my shirts more then once a week. I like to get a big pile of them before I do it. Usually, I just wait until I don't have any more shirts then I have to do the wash. Ben

                      I think that is a little more then out of the box. More like out of your wife's closet. Ben
