At first glance, a shirt is a shirt — but when it comes to professional laundering, men’s and women’s shirts are processed very differently, which directly impacts the price.

• Men’s Laundered Shirts

Men’s dress shirts are usually:

• Made with structured fabric

• Standard buttons

• Consistent collars and cuffs

Because of this, they can be:

• Washed in bulk

• Pressed on automated shirt machines

• Finished quickly and consistently

✅ This makes the process faster and more efficient, keeping the price lower.

• Women’s Laundered Shirts

Women’s shirts and blouses often include:

• Delicate fabrics (silk blends, rayon, lightweight cotton)

• Decorative buttons, pleats, or ruffles

• Irregular shapes or open necklines

These usually require:

• Hand pressing

• Extra attention to avoid shine, stretching, or damage

• Slower, detail-oriented finishing

🔍 That extra care = more time and labor, which is why women’s laundered shirts typically cost more.
