I wear suit, shirt, tie to work. Suit gets dry cleaned so doesn't need to be ironed. I usually iron two weeks worth of shirts at a time, and can normally rattle through them in an hour and a bit. I guess that's 6-7 minutes per shirt. Piece of cake when you get going. I usually stick on a movie or some music to make it less mind numbingly dull.
Everything else, apart from the odd weekend shirt, I'm happy to wear slightly creased and allow my body heat to slowly flatten out the creases.

Ive no idea where there figure of 20 pre cent was derived from - but as Ive now read it on the Internet I will take that as Gospel - and can now transform my laziness into a form of smug environmental superiority.
Did you know that Albert Einstien didnt wear socks ?

I tend to wear a shirt to work- even if it's a casual style they still need ironing. Looking creased is just poor form for a chap...

I still do Mr P's shirts when I'm around, but I do as little as I can get away with.

I once ironed a Subbuteo pitch to get the creases out, but that's about it.

I live ironing free. I put my dirty clothes on the floor, and they reappear magically in my wardrobe, cleaned and pressed.
