I dun think you can get these in Malaysia as it is not common, maybe can ask any tailor. A proper ones are those made of metal (something like copper)
I have one pair got from UK while there This post has been edited by rayng18: Dec 8 2011, 01:38 PM |

Yes it came with shirts. But due to laundry n washing, some gone missing.
So i am trying to replace them. I know that they are metal ones. But if i forgot to take the metal ones out before laundry, the metal ones will change the colour of my shirt completely. |

All my collar stays so far has came with the shirt itself and its plastic.
So my question is to those using metal/steel ones, in case if you forgot to take it out and put your shirt in the laundry, would it caused the stay to rust and affect the shirt? |

So my question is to those using metal/steel ones, in case if you forgot to take it out and put your shirt in the laundry, would it caused the stay to rust and affect the shirt? i remember when i first put on a pair of cufflinks. it was so much hassle that i nearly gave up but after several times, cufflinks have been part of my life and i just can't get enough of them. Also you mind will register that you are using a pair of collar stays, a pair that you paid at a premium (in comparison). So your mind will somehow prompt you to take them out before you wash your shirts. Added on December 12, 2011, 5:42 pm QUOTE(arsnl @ Dec 12 2011, 04:05 PM) Haven't happened to me yet..

Anyway, just find a piece of plastic and cut to your desired shape and be done with it |
