I mean, most of those sleeves are probably blown.

In Texas, everybody wants a crease down their sleeve.

They want a crease down their pants.

Used to, a lot of moms, grandmas would do that ironing, but a lot of ladies now are not going to waste the time to iron their husband's shirt and pants.

And the husband sure ain't going to do it.

So for $8, I'll take my shirt and my pair of blue jeans and drop them off at the cleaners.

If I get them heavy starts, well, I can wear that pair of blue jeans three or four times.

You know, I wear them to work, get home, take them off, put on some other clothes.

Yep.

So we'd just keep going.

A lot of cleaners, I know this isn't going to get anything to farming for profit.

Yeah, it is.

It's fun.

It's part of the profit of your farm.

But a lot of cleaners have stepped away from it's an extra step in processing to press a sleeve where most of your presses now, like when you put a shirt on a press, it goes on wet.

and it blows steam through it, so it dries it, it vacuums it down, and you smooth out the wrinkles.

It presses it top and bottom and presses the shirt, then it blows steam through the sleeves and takes all the wrinkles out and dries them, and then you just send them out.

Whereas if you've got to crease the sleeves, now that lady has to take it, lay it on another press, re-wet it, press the sleeves, and it costs more.

It's more labor-intensive, so...

They charge extra, and a lot of people won't pay an extra dollar or two to have their sleeves pressed.
