I hope someone can help. I washed my shirts in a coloured wash yesterday as normal. However both a relatively new shirt and an old shirt now have black marks under both arm pits! I'm at a bit of a loss as everything else in the wash was ok. Washded them again today with oxi clean in as well and they cam out the same!:confused:

Any advice would be gratefully recieved!.:T

    It sounds like some kind of reaction to deodrant.

    What colour are the shirts?

    They are blue and white checked and also a blue and white striped. My wife reminded me that it also happened to a new purple shirt a few weeks ago

    it's not from wearing something over them is it? I've got a denim jacket that turns white t-shirts blue under the arms and around the neck, particularly if I get caught in the rain.

    Afraid not. These are formal shirts, so I always wear them with the same suit jacket.
