How to Fold a Shirt (for maximum space)

So, here, as you can see, we have the basic Chinese manufactured (I'm serious) t-shirt.  In order to fold a shirt properly, (1) place it in front of you (preferably on a table) laid out and flattened making sure everything is aligned and there are few to no creases or folds (as seen above).

2) Next, take one side of the shirt and fold it so the fold of the sleeve reaches to about the neck of the shirt (below).

3) Do the same with the other side and make sure (this is important if you don't want wrinkled clothing upon your arrival) the edges of the shirt all match up with one-another (below).


4) Take the end of the shirt and fold it so that the end reaches the neck (below).




5) Fold the shirt again, taking the bottom and bringing it to where the neck and end meet (below).




6) For maximum foldedness/compactness (very important): take the lower part of the shirt and fold it again to the top of the shirt (below).



Now, you have a nicely folded shirt which will fit in a zipper/ziplock bag most comfortabely whilst saving space.
