Clothes after packing often have wrinkles or creases, which is an inconvenience when traveling. Besides folding clothes into squares and stacking, you can refer to other options for organizing your luggage, such as rolling or wrapping them. See step 1 below to prepare good clothes for the trip.
Steps
Roll of Clothes
Apply scrolling. This method can minimize wrinkles and save space. Soldiers in the US military use this method to fold clothes. This is a good idea to be able to put more things in the bag, especially when you are trying to make the luggage less bulky. [1] X Research Source
- This method works great with shorts, socks, synthetic t-shirts, tank tops, some pajamas, and warm clothes.
- The trick is that you have to be both swiping flat and scrolling. This prevents the sides of the garment from wrinkling.
Fold the jeans legs lengthwise. Roll the length of the pants from the hem to the waist. You should start with jeans and large items to put them in the front pocket. [2] X Research Source
T-shirt roll. Lay out the t-shirt lying face down on a flat surface. Fold the sleeve to the bodice. Make sure you smooth out the wrinkles. Next, fold the shirt in half lengthwise and then roll it up. [3] X Research Sources
Fold long sleeve shirt. Lay the shirt face down on the front. Fold the sleeves to the bodice so that the cuffs are almost touching the hem. Fold it once again vertically and start rolling from the lap up.
- With expensive shirts, smooth and fold them so that the shoulders are almost the same. Fold from the bottom up a third time, then from the top so they overlap. Turn the shirt over and smooth it out. Slide your hand in the center where the two folds come together, then swipe again. Finally roll it up, starting at the lap.
Fold skirts, dresses and skirts. Smooth them out before and while scrolling so they don’t wrinkle. This type of clothing will be better protected if placed at the bottom of the cart (another reason is because they are usually larger than T-shirts and underwear).
- For nice trousers, lay them on a flat surface and smooth out the creases. Stack the pants on top of each other, then fold them in half from the hem. Swipe one more time then start scrolling from the crease in the pillow.
- If it’s something other than trousers (a skirt or a dress), lay it face down on a flat surface. Swipe to remove wrinkles or fibers. Fold the garment vertically so that one half overlaps the other half and then straighten it again. Next, fold from the bottom up so that the hem of the skirt touches the back of the skirt (or the neckline for a dress). Start scrolling again from below.
- As for warm clothes, zip them up and lay them face down on a flat surface. Fold your sleeves back and then fold your jacket in half lengthwise. Then, roll it from the bottom up to the collar, while pressing it to let the air out to reduce the puffiness of the jacket. You can secure it with an elastic band or a large ribbon.
Hang up your clothes when you get there. If you hang them (or at least hang only the nice ones) the clothes won’t wrinkle. Typically, our things are wrinkled because many people have a habit of leaving them in their bags and digging around when looking. Hang them to avoid this problem.
Wrap Your Clothes In Bundles
Layer clothes around an object to form a bundle. Let’s use the rectangular flat bag as the “multiplier”. The size and center position of the “multiply” depends on the amount of clothing you are packing. [4] X Research Sources
- It’s basically just a rectangular bag so you can take advantage of the small, easily lost items in the suitcase. [5] X Research Sources
Shape the pillow with the bag. Tuck soft items such as underwear, swimwear or dirty bags into the bag so that it swells up like a pillow. Don’t try to stuff a lot of stuff in here because you’ll make it look big and bulky.
Start organizing the clothes to pack “multiply”. Take a heavy item, like a coat, and spread it out on the bed or the floor. Remember to smooth out wrinkles on the shirt.
- Other items will lie facing up. This jacket alone is face down with the sleeves hanging down as naturally as possible. The reason you should do this is because if you turn it over the seams on the shoulders will get wrinkled.
Arrange skirts and dresses on top of jackets. Fold the skirt in half lengthwise. Place them alternately left and then right on top of the jacket. [6] X Research Sources
- Continue layering long-sleeve (buttoned) shirts and t-shirts alternately. The collar of the previous shirt coincides with the armpit of the next shirt.
- Add long pants (trousers) or khaki pants alternately on the left and right sides.
- If you bring a jacket or woolen clothes, do the same thing as above. Put shorts above all.
Finally add “multiply” in the middle of the stack of clothes. Try to arrange so that the edge of the bag coincides with the collar and waist of the skirt. This ensures that the bundle doesn’t come apart when you put it in the suitcase.
Wrap the trouser leg around your bundle and tuck it back in. Wrap them gently to limit wrinkles without straining the garment. Wrap all the hands and the bottom of each shirt around the bag. Tuck the sleeve down, around the “core”.
Put the bundle of clothes in your suitcase. Secure them with straps in the bag. So the suitcase and all the clothes inside are ready to go with you without worrying about wrinkles.
- The only disadvantage of this method is that you have to open the bundle to get what you need. You’d better hang them up when you arrive.
Packing Your Shoes
Bring the heaviest pair. The heaviest and largest shoes can make it difficult to pack. One is to leave them at home (unless you are going somewhere very cold and humid), the other is that you can bring them with you to move.
Use a shoe bag. A shoe bag can keep shoes from coming into contact with and staining clothes. You can put the shoes under the suitcase, this will help them be well protected and not cause discomfort when moving.
Put your socks in your shoes. Don’t waste the space inside the shoes. You should stuff them tightly with socks, or put some small fragile items in here. Quite a few people have forgotten about this convenient space.
- You can also wear shoes that you no longer like or are about to throw away. Then leave them behind when you pack your bags and return.
Tie your shoes to the outside of your backpack. This doesn’t work when you have to check your luggage at the airport, but it’s great for saving space when you need to move around with your belongings or take other modes of transportation.
- Try to tie your shoes so that they don’t repeatedly bump into you, or bump into other people.
Advice
- Keep delicate items like underwear and bras in a plastic mesh laundry bag. This mesh material also allows security inspectors to see the contents of the bag without having to open it to see it in person.
- Placing multiple t-shirts on top of each other and rolling them up is less likely to cause wrinkles.
- Consider sharing items with a travel companion. Pack half of their stuff with half of yours in case you lose your bag, you won’t be completely unlucky.
- If your clothes are a little wrinkled after arriving, hang them in the bathroom and turn on the hot water. The rising steam will straighten the clothes.
- It’s a good idea to pack your clothes according to the set you want to wear.
- Always bring your pajamas so you can use them at any time.
- Final shoe packing; Put them on top of your luggage.
Warning
- Avoid using elastic bands to tie rolls of clothes or they will leave marks due to pressure. You can use a cord to pack your goods or a bag.
- Do not carry too many shoes in the bag; Please consider and select the pairs that you will wear.
- Avoid carrying a lot of heavy clothing. Wear layers (bring lots of sweaters you can leave heavy coats at home). A thermal t-shirt and long underwear can help you avoid packing heavy coats and still stay warm in cold climates. [7] X Research Sources
