Creased gym gear

Hi guys my parter must have left the clothes in the washer a little after the wash as all my gym clothes are creased, is there anything I can do to get rid of the creases I wore them and washed them again but still creased, a few year ago I had a pair of gym clothes that's got creased and I used low heat on iron and it did nothing so turned up bit more and they burned lol, these are mainly Nike so want to take care 
Thanks
Thanks

i use to put them on a hot radiator after washing, but you must open the window a bit or youll get mouldy walls (happend to me)“Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.”

Yes buy an iron and get partner to use it.
If partner fails, time to change the locks!0 -

Try re-washing and drying; don't let the clothes fully dry and take out of the dryer, then iron until dry and hang out to cool.
If this doesn't work you could try a dry cleaners as some will have specialist steamers which can steam out creases, however if the creases have been there a while or the fabric is quite old it may not be possible to get all the creases out. Doesn't hurt to ask though.0 -
I needed to get some creases out of netting, and in the end I hung it in a steamy bathroom for a while, sprayed it with a little water to help the creases fall out, and ironed on a low heat but with a pillowcase between the iron and the fabric. Perhaps something like that would help?0

You could get a clean tea towel, place on top of item you wish to iron and iron as normal. You can use quite a high heat on a tea towel. I do this frequently with more delicate items. usually works fine0
