How to Fold Clothes

Whether it’s in a t shirt or a tank top, folded clothes provide a helpful and less cluttered way for you to organize your everyday life. At any given time of year, you may have a variety of

shirts and other clothes to fold and put away. With the proper methods, you’ll be ready to store your tops and bottoms in no time.

Make your T-shirts as compact as possible. Place your garment facedown, and bring the left half of the T-shirt to the center. Flip the short sleeve so that it faces the outer edge

of the shirt. Repeat this with the right half of the garment before tucking the curved neckline into the shirt to create a rectangular shape. Fold the shirt once more to get it ready for

storage.

  • Stick to simple folds. While complex folds might be able to save you a little more space, they are more time-consuming to do and can make it hard to distinguish your shirts from one another.
  • Once you’ve folded your shirt, you can keep it upright in your dresser or wardrobe drawer.
  • This type of folding also comes handy when you want to fold T-shirts for travel since it can help you maximize space in your suitcase.
  • If the T-shirt is on the larger side, consider folding it in thirds instead of halves.

shirts

Fold polo shirts lengthwise to store them. Place the shirt facedown on a flat surface and check that the shirt is completely buttoned before continuing. Tuck the sleeves into the

center of the back, and fold the shirt in half so that the shoulders are touching. Complete the fold by bringing the bottom hem of the shirt to meet the collar.

  • This method also works for dress shirts, or any shirt with buttons

tank top

Fold tank tops into a small square. Set the tank top facedown on a flat surface before folding it in half lengthwise, making the garment look like a narrow rectangle. Next, fold the

tank top in half again so that it forms a square. Store the tank top in a dresser, or in any place where it will fit.

  • If your tank top has thinner straps, tuck them beneath the shirt.
