How to fold a t-shirt so it does not crease

Short answer: Fold along the seams and avoid folding across a print. Two folds are enough. The more folds, the more lines you have to shake out later.

Fold along the seams

The seams are already a line. A fold that follows them creates no new one. See bamboo t-shirts for women.

Avoid folding across a print

A fold through a print gives a permanent crease in the design. See bamboo clothing for women.

Fewer folds are better

Two folds keep the garment compact without creating many lines. See bamboo tops for women.

Fold only when completely dry

If a damp garment is folded, the creases set hard. See bamboo underwear for women.
