My grandma ironed for a shirt factory for 5 years when she was young (between the end of the 40s and the beginning of the 50s). Her record was 109 shirts ironed in a day. When in her 80s became blind she could still iron shirts. She was a legend. No ! She IS a legend.

He did all this in a suit! Respect!

I’ve been ironing my own shirts for over fifty years now, and that is the way my dear mother taught me to do it!

Never thought I would enjoy ironing a shirt video so much. 👍

Loved to see you ironing your shirt while wearing suit and tie. Such a gentleman,

In a world of overly casual dress, we need more videos like this. Nothing like being sartorially resplendent!

My mother ironed on Tuesdays. She had six children. We all had perfectly ironed clothes. She taught me to iron when I was very young actually, all of us knew how to iron. I love this video.😊

To this day, I iron my shirts and trousers myself. My father taught me these important chores and how to do them properly. Great video... My heart sank when you left the iron on the shirt for a few seconds 😂.. Thank you and have a lovely day.

There is nothing like a elegant man, wearing a shirt Women are demanding THE RETURN OF THE MAN❤❤❤❤❤

So relaxing watching this gentleman ironing. ❤

I thought I knew how to iron a shirt, but I have learned a couple of tips from you in this very comprehensive tutorial. Thank you very much.

First class lesson by an expert. Thank you!

From India, just watched the video to listen to this gentleman speak in the most sophisticated manner, and also to admire his diligence. I iron my ladies shirt exactly this way, my mother has taught me ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

My granny showed me this technique when I was 8 and I have always ironed my clothes since then…even now at 47 being a wife and working mom..I always iron all our clothes…everyone laughs at me for being so “ocd” as they say. However, in the end I find that it actually saves a lot of time when we are getting ready because all our clothes are nice and pressed. Also, what iron is that it looks fabulous and I need it in my life 😊

Just so lovely seeing a man doing the ironing. I know their must be plenty of you out there, but I've never known one!

This is also how I iron a shirt with the exception that I no longer press in either of the two creases on the double cuff. I like the roll and curvature of the cuff more than the hard angles there.

This is exactly how my mom taught me when I was 11 years old. I STILL iron cotton shirts today.

Love the iron and ironing board!! 🫶🏼

Perfect technique. The most visible and important parts at the end. The knee on the collar is a bonus I didn't know about, thank you.

Strangely satisfying to watch. Classy and informative.

Sir you are truly a proper gentleman! I am a seamstress and learned how to iron men shirts when constructing them. I actually love ironing! *~ New Subscriber*

Love the watch. And I was always taught to iron by my mother and it’s, collar, cuffs, sleeve, yoke then the rest. The one I haven’t mastered is ironing to then put in a suit case. A video on that would be great!

Thank you for this instruction. I’ve never been taught how to iron a shirt properly.

Sir, you are a true gentleman. I've been ironing my own shirts since being a boy. Learned a great deal from this video. Thank you from Los Angeles.

What a lovely video, a breath of fresh air and elegance, old England style and standards. So glad the crease down the sleeve of a shirt is ok, I always thought it was not and it had to be smooth. So much easier. Hope to see lots more videos like this. Thank you.

I learned how to iron my clothing and polish my shoes by watching my father do it. Once his shirts were laundered and hung to partially dry, he rolled them up and put them in the freezer! When it was time to iron one, out it came from the freezer. I loved the smell and sounds as the hot iron hit the shirts. I have three brothers, none of whom have any interest in ironing. My Dad also had pant forms, and sock forms. He had been in the Canadian army from 1937 (he enlisted at 17) until he retired in 1967 and was very particular about presentation. He was always sharply dressed. Some people teased him about it. I never did. I was always very proud to be seen with him. P.S. I love your channel!

I have been ironing my shirts and trousers for over more than fifty years.. still I had something to learn from this video

I've been ironing my own shirts for over 60 years now just as you demonstrate, and that is the way the Royal Navy taught me to do it.!! 😉

Totally agreed. Ironing is the one chore I enjoy immensely. My mother-in-law ironed her guest room bed sheets. When I visited and slipped into the guest bed it was HEAVEN. Definitely worth the effort 😊.

So pleased to see this video and say a big thank you to my mum as this is how she taught iron a shirt when I was 11. I am now 66 and still ironing in exactly the same way that you do said to me, your best friend is the iron as to how you look in your clothes thank you for this video

People think I aam strange for loving ironing, but they don't realise the satisfaction a properly ironed piece of clothing brings, I have always followed the same process you do, though I am a stickler for the pleats being identical and symmetric, To attain this in long trousers I have been known to use copious numbers of washing pegs to keep the pleats in place while ironing! 😂

Lovely video I worked in sewing for 30 years we didn't do many shirts mostly blouse slacks kids clothes I could press 26 blouses a hour that includes a bonus in our wages still love ironing

My mother taught me to iron a shirt in such a way that each piece that had been pressed was not destroyed while you would press the next section so I would always do the cuffs first and then the sleeve instead of sleeve then twist the just pressed sleeve to do the cuff. I start with the collar, then shoulder placket, then cuff, back of sleeve, front of sleeve then front left of shirt all the way around to front right of shirt. In this way, each piece that has been ironed hangs down loosely while the next section is pressed.

Great video. I came for tips and left with the comfort of knowing I was taught how to iron a shirt correctly. 👍

Good job! One might wonder if a chap who can afford to pay GBP 350 for a shirt ever irons his own shirts. It has been my experience that all the nice gentlemen I know who can afford such shirts do exactly that, they iron their own shirts and polish their own shoes. It's all about taking care in what we do. PS: Also love the "knee bit" which was a nice novelty for me.

A male friend taught me many years ago how helpful the “back” of the ironing board is. If you use the square end of the board you get a consistent surface for each shirt panel.

I have been ironing shirts for years- no one to teach me, so I taught myself. There are many good tips in this video!

I've been ironing shirts this way for 70 years! Learned it in 4-H sewing class!

All I kept thinking is what iron is that?? And the pad too. Great video

Fantastic video! That is how I iron dress shirts. I'm glad I've been doing right all these years. 😊

Never knew this is the way to iron a shirt. Thank you.

Before hanging a damp shirt, I lightly spray it with diluted liquid starch. When it dries you don't get as much of the flakes when ironing.

Ha! I’ve been ironing my shirts for over 25 years now and I’ve come up with almost the same method and sequence; only I don’t like creases on my sleeves as I prefer everything to be smooth and round 🙂. Excellent job Sir! Enjoyed the video a lot 👌

I want to know about the perfume cabinet behind him. BTW do not store perfumes lighted up that way. I adore the iron. And he's wearing a Micky Mouse watch!

I really appreciated this and especially the direct and to the point style of demonstration. Please would you make one showing us how to iron trousers?

I have never loved ironing. Yet, this gent has made it an art. Thank you😊

Love the demonstration. Definitely learned quite a few techniques. Never one to iron the inside first like you did. Great tips all around. Thank you for posting! 😊❤

I still iron very similar, a couple of your tips have upped the ante to iron my shirts perfectly. I also iron my handkerchiefs, napkins and table cloths. In our throw away culture, I still darn my socks if required. Thanks mum. much appreciated.

I enjoyed watching. I discovered through many unsatisfactory results, throughout the years, to iron my shirts the way you have shown.

I always iron my shirts and my other clothes inside out. Protects the fibres and keeps them looking great for much longer.

I want that steam iron!! I’m impressed!!

I love a well pressed shirt. It looks so sharp.

I never ironed much of anything up until about 6 months ago, now I’m ironing my pillowcases. It’s my therapy.

Perfect, before hanging the shirt on the hanger I always pat out the shirt to reduce the wrinkels. Let it dry and iron it.

‘On the edge of being dry’. Now there’s a phrase.

That's a good tip re bending the collar around the knee. I'll adopt that. Though I am quite particular about NOT ironing over the pleats, so there's no crease in them.

It amuses me that like you, I am proud of being good at shoe-shining and ironing.

Been ironing everything since childhood, and still do proper ironing to this day, many decades later.

Simple chores like this instills discipline I believe... Thank you so much for this video.

Oh, así también planchaba yo las camisas de mi papá y abuelo. Así me lo enseñó mi abuela, excepto por el detalle de los puños afilados. Ahora plancho así las camisas de colegio de mi hija, espero también enseñarle bien a planchar, y si no me entiende, la remitiré a su vídeo, jajaja. Muchas gracias, este vídeo fue muy inspirador.

This is the first time I've found your video. Japan needs you.

Thank you! As a young man who has recently got a job that requires suit and tie, this video really helps. Love your style and content. Cheers from Norway

This is the beauty of men.. truly gentleman, nice, clean and neat

You seem very kind and classy. I wasn’t interested in the instructions since I already know how to iron, yet I enjoyed your video for your stylish and balanced charisma. I respect that. :)

Thank you for the tips and tricks. I picked up quite a few.

I started ironing my own clothes way back in 7th grade and haven't stopped since! I find ironing boards too restrictive - there's just not enough space to maneuver the iron smoothly. That's why I use a regular wooden table with a thick, an old jeans fabric as a heat-resistant pad. It works perfectly for me, and I'm proud of how well I can iron my clothes!

My late father taught me to iron his shirts when I was 10....just as you have done...I can hear him saying...fold the cuff.....thankyou

Nothing but class. Well done.

Thank you sir. Its good i got this video for teaching my husband. As some guys dont listen to wife for perfection of work ..ironing.u reduced my work😊

Thank you for a very good, gentlemanly instructions of how to iron a shirt to look as if came from the dry cleaners. I certainly learned a lot, thank you again.

I like your cuffs too. I did not know about not lifting the collar up to put on a tie! Will do your way for my husband. Thank you.

Much respect to you sir, ironing with a suit and tie and wearing a Michey Mouse watch! 💪💪

When I did cleaning job for families long time ago and did not speak English, I used to iron14 shirts per hour.....Now I could do only 5 for my husband, ;). Could see the best Philips iron has been used.

Nearly correct! I was taught to iron the collar, cuffs and yoke before moving on to the sleeves and the rest of the shirt (ex serviceman).

Really neat for my husband shirt👔 .Thank you for sharing🙏🏼

Loved your video. My father was a master tailor and like many here had a different ironing order but the attention to details were the same. We ironed suits right-side-up with the daily newspapers.

Thank you for such a polished demonstration. I’ve always ironed the collar first, but I’m going to try your method next time.

This kind of shirt just was not much of a thing in my family for a couple of reasons. So I never learned this. Nowadays, usually my husband irons his shirts himself. But occasionally, I‘d like to help. So thank you for teaching me!

Absolutely fantastic demonstration by the owner of this beautiful establishment. I have purchased many items of clothing and footwear from them and will continue because they are the best gentleman's clothing store in Harrogate and the UK, in my opinion. Well done and long may you stay in business for the next generations.

I was taught that an important sequence: sleeves, collar, front, yoke, back.

Thank you so much Sir.. I searched everywhere how to iron office shirt but not understand as simple as yours. you have a professional quality

My gran had a sad iron, warmed it up on the cooker used to watch her do this, my mom never really taught me anything, I think that is the problem school haven't taught this since the 60s, parents haven't either, and people no longer dress smart, all the good clothes shops have closed down, it's all sports wear

Learned how to iron in the military but picked up some tips from you. Thanks!

I iron my father's and brother shirt like this i learnt in my own now I know I m doing it right

I used to work in dry cleaning shop and I can confirm that is indeed how you iron a shirt.

I was taught this way by my late father who was an ex RAF officer,I also iron the pleats on the back of my shirt,(a piece of card measured to the dimension of the pleat,)

I'm taking notes, this was so informative.

Great video. Can you please tell what kind iron and board for ironing you are use. Thank you

Great work. Particularly liked the details around cuff ironing. Thank you

Such a gentleman! I enjoyed the lesson.

Thank you so much, you are a fine gentleman.I appreciate your tips very much. Have a beautiful day.Regards from Mexico.

I hv never learnt how to iron my shirts properly, thank you for posting this. Love that you have Tintin figure in the top shelf!

Excellent advice, thank you!

Thanks Michael Gove, great tips!

Great tutorial, and very elegantly presented. (The Mickey Mouse watch notwithstanding🤪)

YOUR CLOTHES ROOM IS SO COMFORTABLE 👍

Routine things which make me remember my Dad, ironing shirts & shaving. 'Respect the pleats' 'crisp crease'

Thank you for sharing your technique!

I'm ironing my shirts since I was 11 (since 1996) and this is more or less how I do it. Thank you sir!

Thank You for putting this together. It will come in handy the next time I need to iron a shirt.
