Shirt carriers - any good?

[Monsieur]

I'm now contemplating commuting by cycle - I wear a suit at work and need some sort of shirt carrier that would give me a creaseless shirt.

I'm tempted by shirt shuttle - anyone able to comment on pros and/or cons?

Not seen one of those, but looks good. I had a similar thing years ago. One good feature was a flexible plastic strip (a bit like a Vicars collar) that fitted inside the collar to keep the shape and stop it getting crushed. Easily made at home I would think.

I used to cycle to work (can't now 'cos they've moved my 'office' which is a crying shame - I loved cycling in ... ).

Can you not take a job lot of pants, socks, shirts in and hang them in your office somewhere?? (have you got showering facilities? pretty vital ... !! ).

laundry service that delivers and collects from your office on a weekly basis

Thanks for comments

No showers and nowhere to leave a week of shirts so shuttle may be the only option

I use the 'Iron-free' shirts from TM Lewin (no connection other than as a customer). They don't crease - really - and have made a real difference to the look when commuting!

Bugger, just sent one of those to the charity shop, you could have had it., although mine wasn't a shirt shuttle, it was a similar thing. They're neat, you have a board to wrap the shirt round and a box that fits inside the collar for a tie/cufflinks etc.

Just the job for commuting, I just don't work anywhere that needs a shirt and tie these days.

Have had something similar for years, mainly for air travel with carry-on luggage - recommended.

Another Vote for these

I have one of the originals, before they had carry handles. I have used it on the pushbike and always on the bike most days for getting stuff into work, in fact I binned the inner pannier bags and would use these instead. They fitted really well in side Varios and I also use them with Kriega US bags, and they help organise the clothes, but most important kept things looking good, which is what you need.

Roll the shirt up and put it in your backpack. Rolling it up does not crease it, take it out and a quick shake and its ready to wear. Works with keks and jackets also.

Have a look at these?

Get yourself some Rohan shirts e.g. http://www.rohan.co.uk/mens-travel-and-outdoor-shirts-Worldview-Shirt?ocode=03273969

I 'screw' then up in my bike luggage or back pack and they never need ironing.

Another vote for TM Lewin iron free shirts. Just the ticket and they look great for any circumstances!
