I am not concerned though as this is my working/hiking/lounging around kilt and need not be pressed perfectly. I laid it out flat on the bed, straightening the pleats and some of the wrinkles came out and the pleats looked neater after it fully dried.
I purchased a $30 steamer from Walmart and it keeps all my pleats crisp! Just takes two minutes or less!
