Yes, it's true there is this efficient, Ninja-quick, Japanese method for folding a t-shirt that reduces all the motions to just a few economical ones. Anyone who's ever worked in retail and had to spend countless hours refolding and restacking shirts and sweaters will totally appreciate this folding technique. And it's super cool to use for your home laundry too. Husbands and teenagers have been known to fold t-shirts after seeing this method! Whether you have six or six hundred t-shirts to fold, why not fold them the fastest and easiest way you can?

This shirt-folding technique is easy to understand, ergonomic in movement, and takes just a few seconds per shirt to do!

In case that first video didn't quite make sense to you, here's a second take on the super quick t-shirt folding trick!

...second verse, same as the first... 

Ergonomics - When something is "ergonomic" it means it's been adjusted and adapted to fit human needs and movements. It works to eliminate repetitive stress and uses a minimum of motions to get the job done which saves you effort and time.

Space-saving - Take a whole lot of t-shirts and empty out a drawer in your dresser or get an empty suitcase. First, try stuffing all the shirts into the drawer or suitcase without any folding. See how much space they take up. Then, take them all back out and fold them using the method shown here. See how much less space they take up? Now that airlines are charging money for how many bags you bring when you fly, getting more stuff into one suitcase isn't just convenient, it's an actual money-saver!

Better appearance - It's a fact that t-shirts which are folded up nicely not only take up less space, but they don't get as wrinkled as clothing that is just stuffed into a drawer any-which-way.  This lets you'll look nicer and less scruffy when you wear them.
