Placket Stays - Dress Shirts Collar Stays Crisp & Firm, Universal Fit for Mens Dress Shirts & Polo

Excellent collar stays! They are the perfect solution to give your dress shirts a crisp professional look and are so much better than the plastic version.

I stumbled onto these by accident and I’m so glad I did. The difference is AMAZING. I would do a free commercial for these guys. I was so excited to see a pair installed that I decided to install a set myself in an old shirt. With no particular sartorial skills or equipment other than seam ripper, needle and thread, and a thimble, I installed them in about 15 minutes (one shirt) with wonderful results. I recommend attempting the install yourself before employing a tailor; they are that easy. I wholeheartedly recommend these. They took my shirts to the next level.

Amazing! If only I did not have to order it from the US and were able to get it in Europe (unavailable delivery of small packages to my country) Anyhow, I Iove the product and would love to reorder, but have to think twice due to delivery costs.

Generally don’t write reviews, but I was skeptical of this product so I thought I’d leave one... bit lengthy so let me start by saying I’m very pleased. Any any given day, I may wear slacks and a button down, a full suit and tie - or the compromise: slacks and a blazer with a button down. I also occasionally wear jeans with a blazer and button down too. One thing that has always driven me crazy is shirts that look good with a tie or look fine without a jacket... but then the collar flops like a wet noodle when you wear it with a jacket and no tie. It looks sloppy and is extremely frustrating. I’m fortunate to have a high end washer and dryer so I rarely take my dress shirts to the dry cleaners. Plus, loading shirts up with ungodly amounts of starch to get the collar stiff is terrible for the shirt and makes them uncomfortable to wear. I recently bought a brand new dress shirt that I thought would look great with a blazer I owned. It had that stiff new shirt feel so I thought I would be fine. Wrong. Collar flopped like so many other shirts and I finally had enough. I had to find a solution. After an extensive internet search, I found Million Dollar Collar. While I liked that it was a normal guy who created/owned it, that also made me a bit nervous. But I read a lot of great reviews from Amazon so I figured I’d give it a try. I ordered a 10 pack and found a local tailor who said they would be willing to do the work. I only tried it with 5 shirts to start in case it didn’t work out well. They charged me $10 a shirt. The results are great. I can’t say enough good things about how my dress shirts now look with a blazer, but no tie. It did EXACTLY what I was hoping it would. So why 4 stars and not 5? To get 10 shirts done cost me around $125. $100 for the tailor + $25 for the collars. This was well worth the money to me, but for some people it could be cost prohibitive. Also, I haven’t had them in long enough to see how they’ll hold up over time in my washer/dryer. Plus, you can feel them and you’ll have to get used to them - especially if you wear the shirt with a tie. But all in all, very minor reasons for 4 versus 5 stars. In my opinion, an excellent buy. If you’re having the same annoying issues I was, it is a great product.

Misleading. I assumed it was 5 pair like in the photo and I received 5 sticks. That makes absolutely no sense since you need two sticks per shirt. Way over priced for what I received. Very flimsy material and I question its durability

I put these in every collared shirt I buy before I ever wear it for the first time. Polos are easy; you can open the seam and insert MDC and with a needle and thread, throw a few stitches in there to close it back up. I do own a sewing machine and have gotten really good at installing them in my dress shirts too. I think the best part about these is that they make your collar pop and stand out but in a subtle way I suppose is the way I would word it. Nobody knows why your shirt looks so much better, but they know there's a difference between your shirt and theirs. I have now put these in about 25 shirts over the past year. I keep them on hand in case I happen to pick up a new shirt I can install them sane day and be ready to wear the next. I can see how these might be challenging for those without experience with a sewing machine. I wouldn't attempt to install them in a dress shirt without a machine. If you or your wife can operate a sewing machine all you need is a leather needle and its easy. If you just want to put them in your golf shirts and polos, all you need is a $3 seam ripper, a needle, and some matching color thread. You don't need to sew through them on a polo. I can do a shirt in 15 minutes. Once you have these in your shirts you will never want to wear a shirt without them. I don't.

These worked great and made my shirt looked awesome without a tie. Highly recommend them. You will need a tailor or person that does alterations to do. Or if you're handy with needle and thread than you can do it your self. Not complicated.

Good idea but it will make your shirt look ubnormally straight

Very useful support for shirts collar. stays in its place without seen it. very helpful. I recomment this to all.

These things are the dog's... along with magnetic collar stiffeners, my work shirts look very different to those of my work colleagues which just adds to the fun banter of who has more style - really important when you're in IT to show you're not an IT geek...which, of course, you totally are. Anyway, these things work as described. Shirts can be washed with no harm coming to shirts or stiffeners. As I bought 10 pairs and got all 10 shirts done at the same time, my tailor charged me £5.00 per shirt (£50.00). I think that that was very good value but my opinion is, naturally, subjective. However, I do not own a sowing machine nor have the know-how to do this myself. The tailor did say that if I'd have asked for only 1 or 2 shirts, he would have charged £10.00 a piece - the standard price of a shirt alteration. Thanks to Million Dollar Collars, I really stick out from the (IT) crowd

I'd only recommend these for your nicer shirts since they require a bit of effort (any maybe coin) to have the fitted as per instructions. Also depends on how you wear your shirts. It is depressing to see your nice shirts sag without these.

È facile da usare,basta scucire qualche CM il colletto e avere un po' di dimestichezza con l'ago.ci vogliono pochi minuti in tutto e il risultato è eccezionale

Love these. It was a problem that never occurred to me could have a solution. I always hated when my collar sagged on an open shirt. Starch was always only a temporary solution. These stays give a nice crisp look to an open button shirt. As a business traveller, I try to carry no-iron shirts, but even those could suffer "collar collapse" when in my suitcase. With the Million Dollar Collar stays I can keep the iron put away. One point though, you really do need to know how to use a sewing machine or know someone who does. The installation is straight forward enough but I don't think hand stitching would work.
