A support stay for an article of clothing includes an elongated body with first and second ends, first and second generally parallel outer edges and a longitudinal axis disposed midway between the outer edges, and tabs extending longitudinally from each of the first and second ends. A series of generally v-shaped notches defined by an angle no greater than 30° are formed along each of the first and second generally parallel outer edges and extend from one outer edge past the longitudinal axis towards the other outer edge. The projected surface area of the elongated body excluding the areas formed by the notches may be between 80% and 95% of a first generally rectangular projected surface area bounded by the first and second ends and the first and second outer edges of the elongated member. This support stay is less visible through fabric in which it is inserted. |

The present invention comprises a method of using a punch for cutting one or more collar stays directly from an identification card. The punch includes a holding portion positioned on one side of the identification card and a die or blade portion aligned with the held identification card. The holding portion has a corresponding recess formed therein in the shape of a collar stay. When the punch is aligned with the recess in the holding portion and the two halves are brought together with an identification card therebetween, a collar stay is punched out of the identification card material. The identification card may be positioned such that the resultingly produced collar stay prominently displays a portion of the identification card logo (i.e. Visa®, Mastercard®, or the like), includes the security hologram, includes the name of the card holder, etc. In this way, the collar stay may be customized or made to have a pleasing design element. |
