Yeah they use a pre-ironed shirt to keep the aesthetic but this doesn't teach you anything on how it works and how to deal with folds. A really stubborn fold can only be treated with a steam-hit and repeated "scrubbing" with the iron. That's how I was able to get folds out of my chino pants.

But you should iron the shirt inside out. You do this to make sure that you don't see any discoloration from the ironing or any damages the iron can make to the fabric. This way you can wear your shirt longer, it is also the way they do it in tailor shops.

@@Michael-lg4wz The iron was too hot and has probably burnt some clothes over the years. It's the residue from burnt fabric stuck on the iron that stains clothes and causes that intense ironing smell. I always clean my iron when it burns something. Get a sheet of newspaper and spread a mound of salt on it. Turn on your iron on the highest heat setting and iron over the salt until all the burnt residue is gone.
