Dalco shirts suck. I had them in 3-4 colors my first year and they wrinkle easily, don't fit well, and the material is bad.

Honig's and Smitty shirts are my favorites. Just got a new Smitty short sleeve black shirt and it is great. They reduced the width of the collar (My older one had a really big collar for some reason) and the material is really light and doesn't wrinkle.

I'm simply washing them (on a handwashing / delicate setting with cold water) and hanging them to dry. So far they are doing great, although I've only worked 10 games this season because of the weather here.

I'll probably dry clean them once a month or so to keep the crease good and sharp.
