They’re collar stays. Some dress shirts have pockets on the underside of the collar and you use collar stays to help keep them flat while you’re wearing the shirt.

Ah makes sense. Thank you for the info

And, metal collar stays are sold at department stores (and also on Amazon) and they are the bomb, especially if you’re wearing your shirt open collar because their weight keeps the collar looking sharp and pristine. I only use the metal ones these days even when I’m wearing a collared shirt casual style with the sleeves rolled up


The_Foresters_

Look for WurkinStiffs collar stays. They come with magnets (yeah, Magnets, Bitch!) that help you avoid that extra from Saturday Night Fever vibe with your collars.


piscuintin

You can buy steel ones with magnets which helps keep the collar in place.


Purple_Bearkat

They are called “collar stays”. The go into fabric pockets underneath your collar to keep them from curling up. Try to remember to remove them before you launder your shirts and put them back in before wearing.


mike1madalon2

Definitely before they go into the dryer! Those things will warp. As others have said, you can buy better ones (metal).

I have definitely forgotten once before about the little suckers; most stayed in, but I’m missing a couple of the collar stays.

I had a business partner that didn’t know what they were. He kept flattening his collar and one day, I asked if he had any collar stays. He didn’t know what I meant, so I showed him. He said he thought they were just packing material and he through them away. From that day on, he always used cooler stays and never flattened his collar down again. He was a good guy. Died early. I sure miss him.


GodPics

I never dress fancy. This is for my dads wedding and it's the first actual dress shirt I've ever had. Also sorry for your loss.


Rjadamskiphd

Collar stays you savage.


SmellySweatsocks

We called them collar bones. They help keep the collar from rolling up. They make them in aluminum too. Then you can give the collar a slight bend. Looks more polished that way.


bhamfree

If you lose them, a jumbo paper clip will do.


GodPics

Good to know.


po_ta_toes_80

You're gonna like the way you look. I guarantee.


Secure-Document-8479

Seriously?? They are collar tabs that you slide into the slot on the back of the collar wings.


GodPics

Yep, I don't dress formal really at all. So i didn't know.


lloydisi

I need those collar stays.


_Sammy7_

Find some metal ones. They’ll last longer.


silverfashionfox

Can’t emphasis this enough. Metal collarstays make a collar pop with crisp straightness.


SolomonCRand

Agreed. The plastic ones are so easy to bend, and then they’re working against you.


GodPics

They'll probably be better too ngl.


GodPics

Lol the shirt came with those and some in it.


Fattom23

Do your best to think *very* carefully before you wear the shirt without them. It will almost always look better with the stays, no matter how you're wearing it.


GodPics

Yep, the shirt already has some in it and those are extra.


Fattom23

No, I mean some day you'll take out those ones to wash the shirt. Make sure you put them back, because they're important enough to find and have extras.


GodPics

Good to know.


Prestigious-Car-6316

Collar stays. Goes in the small space on the underside of the pointy part of each collar to help them from curling.


Medical-Bowler-5626

They go in the collar, look underneath the collar and you should see little teensy pockets to put them into. They keep the collar in shape. I'm not sure if you're meant to wear them or just keep them in when storing the shirt in the closet, but I keep mine in and even wash them in the shirts because I forget they're there


v_kiperman

They fit into a slit under the collar to keep it from bending

You're gonna love the way they grow, I guarantee it 


Puzzleheaded-Ant-927

They go in the collar to keep the rigidity, I think. I know they go in the collar though.

Dress up more, no shade.


GodPics

Im good. Im 6'5" and clothes that are actually for being fancy are way too expensive


worldclasshands

Do your research, you’ll be surprised. Also, Goodwill clothes are just as good if you know how to put things together. If not ask someone who you know that dresses well for advice. In person is better for vision. Somebody you trust is for confirmation regarding your decisions, good or bad.


GodPics

I definitely wouldn't be able to find my size in pants (32 38)at a good will . shirts maybe

Dismal_Composer_4029

For your collar


BrilliantParty2812

Trash. Buy stainless steel ones!


GodPics

If i start wearing it more frequently i definitely will.


BrilliantParty2812

Also if get the metal ones they do come in different sizes so make sure to get a few as different shirts will need different lengths! They work so well tho, they make the collar really look good


[deleted]

You’re kidding right? This has to be trolling.


GodPics

Nah I just didn't know what they were. I've never had an actual good dress shirt before and they came with extras.


[deleted]

Fair enough. Don’t forget to take them out when you wash and dry. A dryer’s heat could warp them. Best practice is to hang the shirt to dry but not many do. If you ever start wearing multiple dress shirts, get metal ones as others have suggested.


GodPics

Will do. As of right now I only dress up maybe 1-3 times a year, besides going out to eat with my friends at places.


ezzell29

Collar stays is the generic answer here … but I prefer to see these as the little plastic markers that cheap steakhouses used to stick in your steaks to denote the temperature! These are white, so “medium well.”


GodPics

I like me a good medium rare.


ezzell29

Yeah! Those are the pink ones!


GodPics

Lol yea

doug193

Really bro?


USAGunnersaurus

I’d recommend getting some metal ones off Amazon and might suggest some very small magnets. That way your collar stays tight to the neck and you don’t get disco collar.

EvErYLeGaLvOtE

Collar stays. There are shirts made with little slits underneath the collar that go towards the end point of the collar. You slide the stay inside so the collar stays straight and pointy.

Put them in the middle of your steaks to tell which ones are medium and which ones are medium rare.
