What's that thing called -

They're made out of plastic or light metal and they are inserted in men's collars on dress shirts, to keep the collar straight?

DH gets them with the nicer shirts but wanted more, because he keeps misplacing them.

Thought it would make a nice stocking stuffer - if I can find them!!

Anyone know what they're called or where to get them? Thanks!

Collar stays. Leave them in the shirts when you take them to the cleaners.

you can get them in any store that sells suits or men's shirts.

Macys, Brooks Brothers, Syms..etc..

I don't know if places like Kohls or C21 would have them, but you could call and ask.

They have them at the counter when you pay.
