Outerwear occupies a significant part of the modern wardrobe. In this regard, difficulties may arise when packing a suitcase or freeing up additional space in the closet. Therefore, the question often arises: how to fold a jacket in the most compact way?
There are several ways that make storing outerwear in a closet and packing in a suitcase much easier. If you follow the recommendations, you will be able to save space and prevent wrinkles in the fabric.
Folding a leather jacket
Leather outerwear has confidently taken a leading position in the modern wardrobe. To maintain an attractive appearance, the jacket needs proper storage and timely care.
Jacket storage
It is not recommended to hide folded leather products in a closet. Because from a long stay in this state, creases appear on the jacket, which is why the material itself quickly becomes wrinkled. The ideal option would be to pack it in special cases for storing outerwear.
Important! For leather products, you can only use covers that allow air to pass through!
They are made from natural materials. This helps provide the necessary air regulation that the product requires. In addition, it is possible to prevent bruising of materials.
For transportation
If you need to take the jacket with you on a trip or business trip, you can pack it in the following way.
- First of all, the jacket must be turned inside out.
- Fasten the zipper or buttons.
- Next, fold the sleeves in a cross.
- After this, carefully roll the product into a tight roller.
- It is advisable to pack the roller itself in a bag for transporting clothes to avoid contamination and damage to the surface of the product.
Reference: If you need to smooth out wrinkled fabric, you can hang the jacket in the bathroom for a short period of time, turning on the hot water.
Warm, moist air is beneficial because it helps the leather material naturally smooth out.
Folding a warm jacket
The correct set of warm outerwear will help free up additional space in your suitcase or closet.
There are several methods that make storing warm items much easier.
Available options:
- roller;
- roll into a hood;
- triangle.
Each method is distinguished by its simplicity and practicality, and at the same time requires minimal time.
Roller
- In order to roll up a roller, winter jacket or down jacket, you need to button it up and turn it inside out.
- Next we bend the hood, if there is one.
- Then fold the sleeves at the back.
- At the final stage, starting from the bottom, we roll up a tight roller.
After this, the finished roll can be packed in a clothes bag to prevent damage and contamination. You can also secure it with special elastic bands to secure it more securely.
This method is interesting because it helps to comfortably place the jacket in a suitcase or on a closet shelf. This will free up additional space on the hanger.
In the hood
In order to roll up a warm product into a hood, you need to do almost the same steps.
- First, we button the jacket and turn it inside out.
- Then we fold the sleeves, but leave the hood.
- After this, roll the roll tightly, starting from the bottom.
- We pack the finished roller, like in a pocket, into the hood.
Advice. If you tighten the hood laces, you will be able to secure the product tightly.
Rectangle
To store warm outerwear in a chest of drawers or in a drawer, you can fold it in the shape of a rectangle. Thanks to this method, the jacket does not wrinkle. In addition, it takes up minimal space and is not subject to damage.
To get a rectangle, the product must be placed on a hard and flat surface. For example, a desk is suitable for this.
- Place the front of the jacket on the table.
- We bend the hood and sleeves along the seams, placing them on the back.
- Fold in the center, pressing the bottom to the top.
- To make the packaging secure, you can secure it with a special rubber band.
This method will help free up the necessary storage space and organize additional space.
In pocket
Due to the fact that bulky down jackets are quite light, they can be hidden in your own pocket.
- Fasten the product.
- We pull out the lining of one of the pockets.
- Fold the bottom of the garment inward, up to the pocket line.
- We place both sleeves alternately in the pocket.
- Then we send the top and then the bottom of the jacket there. We make sure that the whole thing ends up in your pocket.
Using vacuum bags and covers
Bags and cases for storing clothes are deservedly very popular among users. This is due to the fact that they help in organizing your wardrobe and prevent the appearance of dirt. A protective layer is also necessary to protect the surface of the product from damage. Therefore, bags or cases make it easy to store and transport clothes.
The bags are characterized by increased strength and tightness, therefore preventing foreign substances from getting inside.
Thanks to this placement, significant space is saved in the closet or suitcase.
If you want to ensure more secure storage and transportation, using any of the above methods is recommended to use a vacuum bag or case.
Conclusion
Proper organization of space in a suitcase is important for every traveler, just as comfortable placement of things when organizing a wardrobe.
By applying several of the above methods in practice, you can significantly improve the set of things and reduce the load in your closet or travel bag.
