But how much of your hide went with it? ;-)

It could be kinda scratchy, but not all that bad. The sleeves were the worst and you'd get creases in them, as elsewhere, pretty quick.

For many years after I always wore my dress shirts with extra starch. Old habits die hard, I guess. But now I'm glad to be beyond that (not only the starch but the dress shirts...).
