That's what I do, roll 'em up in a tight roll. The dress shirts I wear at work don't need ironing (permanent press, I guess it's called) and what few wrinkles they might get while in the panniers come out on their own in short order. I keep them on a hanger over night.

Thinking about it, it might be the steam in the shower room that pulls the wrinkles out. Either way, keeping it rolled up tight during the commute seems to minimize the wrinkles.
