My son is staying with me (between properties......long story).

I've just washed 5 of his work shirts, jolly good ones from Charles Tyrwhitt, the cotton sort that are non iron, bio powder @ 40*...............

...........And now they look lovely but do the underarms STINK? They stink to high heaven of sweat.......probably the same as before I washed them, but I didn't get that close!

What to do?

I know he wears, what they now call a 48 hr anti perspirant, works in air conditioned office............

Ooh, any one got any help out there?

DH sweats copiously down his left hand side when he gets hot. The right hand side is dry whilst sweat pours down his left. It's very odd but he has always been like that and I suppose always will be. He can't drink hot drinks or that sets it off so I usually make his post-meal coffee before we start the meal!
