Mr. Clarke wears a gray button-down shirt so fresh from its plastic packaging that it still bears a symmetrical grid of creases. “I spend a lot of money on clothes for me and May and Aly,” he says. “We wear them two or three times. When they get all wrinkly and funky, we throw them out.”

Holy wow, hard to believe!

Ngl i think id rather have normally wrinkled clothes than the fold lines from when it was packaged

Also fresh new clothing smells. There is chemical residue on it from the dyes or they have sprayed some sort of finishing agent on it to keep it from wrinkling during transport. Which not only smells but can irritate the skin. I can even smell the nylon or polyester in unwashed new clothing that will irritate my throat. Like I had bought jeans with a lot of elastane in it and I had to wash it three times to get the smell out.
