Question
I need to travel to my parents out of town and I don't have any used clothing suitable for such a trip. What should I do? Is it permissible for me to wear laundered clothing like during the Nine Days?
Answer
You should first place the garment on the floor for a few minutes, but there is no need to step on it.
Just like during the Nine Days.
