Since my lady wife passed away, I've had to do my own ironing. Trouser ironing is akin to a black art. I've watched your video a few times but a perfectly ironed pair of chinos or cords, eludes me still. I use a steam generator iron and my board is squared at both ends. All I end up doing is redistributing the many creases to different places!
As soon as he said: "I did this every night after school", I knew I was in good hands. Think about it, back then the attention to detail was fine, he did it daily...etc. Great video, you've gotten yourself a like and a subscriber. :)
Bought a vintage pair of Armanis that hadn't seen the light of day in ages. My first time pressing pants but this video saved my life. Short and consize, while explaining all the folds perfectly. Thank you!
A true gentleman you are, sir. I would love for you to purchase a gravity fed iron and a vacuum ironing table to greater perfect your passion for a smart appearance! I am a man that enjoys the same!! Kudos, sir!!
@@BenNeedsATheme4aDream Well i dont know what he is on about, all trousers have a recommendation about heat. Or you can blast it on max and use a cloth like on the vid.
If you iron your trousers under a cloth, you can have a hotter iron, which will generate hotter steam, without scorching the fabric of the trousers, or causing shiny spots. But make sure you turn the pocket bags AWAY from the area you are ironing, to prevent unsightly imprints of the pocket bags on the outer of the trouser fabric. For wool trousers, ironed under a cloth, you can set the iron to hot, between the 2 and 3 dot markers, and the steam to maximum. But DO NOT allow the iron to sit in one spot for more than a few seconds. Polyester trousers require a lower temperature, no higher than two dots, and again, under a COTTON cloth, such as a SMOOTH tea towel, or even an old pillow case. Always use white or cream cloths to prevent colour transfer to light coloured trouser fabrics. And ALWAYS use steam, or a fine mist of water, sprayed directly on to the ironing cloth. Cotton Chinos can be ironed with Maximum heat (3 Dots) but always use an ironing cloth to prevent scorching the trousers. When ironing the inside crotch and seat area, use a cooler iron, a cloth is not strictly necessary for the inside, but make sure you don't iron on top of the pocket bags, fold them back out the way.
That’s not needed, it’s of course subjective but the necktie like that is an act of extravagance and nonchalant elegance. It emphasizes the necktie and brings eye attention to it, making the ensemble more interesting.
Look at the care tag on your clothes. If you see one dot on the iron it means low heat. 2 dots mean high-low (a little warmer than low). 3-4 dots is high heat. The 3 waves or steam cloud means use steam. An X over the iron means don't iron. Every iron should have the dots on the dial and a steam feature.

This is far easier to follow than most videos on the subject!

I do mine the exact same way. I taught myself to do it this way, just through trial and error.
Thank you! So many other videos show ironing one bit and then saying complete! You explaining the different folds and positions is perfect
What a great video!! You made me so much better at ironing with such a short great video. Cheers, thank you!!
Great video, never thought of ironing inside out. A good to technique I will try myself.
I have again learnt something new from watching your videos 👍

A true gentleman you are, sir. I would love for you to purchase a gravity fed iron and a vacuum ironing table to greater perfect your passion for a smart appearance! I am a man that enjoys the same!! Kudos, sir!!

Great video, but I couldn't stop thinking about pulling your tie further down into your vest!
That’s not needed, it’s of course subjective but the necktie like that is an act of extravagance and nonchalant elegance. It emphasizes the necktie and brings eye attention to it, making the ensemble more interesting.
Congratulations!. Can you tell me the brand of the iron?
Beautiful suit you have on in this video!👍
This man can dress he looks good in his suit
Where can I buy that cloth?
None of these ironing videos talk about how to set and use the iron.
Look at the care tag on your clothes. If you see one dot on the iron it means low heat. 2 dots mean high-low (a little warmer than low). 3-4 dots is high heat. The 3 waves or steam cloud means use steam. An X over the iron means don't iron.
Every iron should have the dots on the dial and a steam feature.
The lads at my cousins wedding will not one up me now. Thanks
I have ironed my Trousers all my life.
Never knew you had to cover it with a cloth not iron directly 😢
I wonder what else I am doing wrong in life.
Right
Madonna…!
Are you watching this…!
You need to get the creases right…!
