Japanese T-shirt folding in English

[Belwaer]

Holy crap

It's an art

[OzFurBluEngineer]

I... preferred thinking this was some Asian black magic when I couldn't understand it... It's like finding out how a magic trick is done.

.. Take a Like anyway

[Blaccat8]

Hah this actually works :3 thank you!

[CelebrityHotTub]

It's OFF-CENTER!!!!

[rrruizzz]

You don't need to pinch point A until after you fold point B over point C. Just keep your hand on the same axis as point B. After you fold it, you can then use the fold to determine point A, pinch it, and then pull it out.

[OzCerdan]

Awesome, thank you so much. Your video is very useful. Now i'll fold my 300 T-Shirts.

[CoraJWaters]

This is amazing!

[rerunrehak]

[Jzmis5]

[jareds1007]

[jareds1007]

[MyNameIsWhat118]

FINALLY GOT THIS SHIT OOOH YEAH

[razie]

omg i did it and it works!

[henry3484]

awesome

[epilepticshawk]

the trick is to do this one the far side of the shirt - aka, if ur sitting to the left (right) of the shirt, grab the right (left) corners of the shirt

[KawaiiAznPanda7]

how do you pull point A through?? D:

[Ydecker86]

messed up the first time because I didn't know I had to hold on to point C while pulling point A through..Did get it on second try....

[benjidrake]

Is that ... Irish folk music in the background?

[gmackie91]

@benjidrake didn't notice that until i read your comment

[Mrjohnnyshredder]

This just looks cool, takes the same amount of time as regular folding.

[Coolstevnar]

Wow I can do it cheers

[OpalescentNightmares]

Oh, you have to grab point C as well?!?!? No wonder it wasn't working =D

[marcmody]

when you grab point A, are you grabing the back layer of the t-shirt as well?

[RHYTHM789]

@marcmody yes!

[SwiftsNamesake]

@marcmody Yes

[undeadembrace]

The art of t-shirt folding? o_O

[Madcow800]

[jkeys360]

[TheThildy10]

woah it worked! very easy

[pari19800]

amazing thanks for uploading

[adropofmermaidstear]

HOLY SHIZZLE I DID IT! ::goes to fold shirts::

[Mr1shotdrop]

less wrinkles in my shirts now, much improvement.

[asutino]

Worked perfectly! Thanks for a video in English.

[ashley102497]

japanese people are truly amazing.

[1779BEZ]

@NeologicNinja I think its juz a faster way to do it... dats all

[NeologicNinja]

Pretty cool, but I'm confused as to the point. Is there a reason for doing this beyond aesthetic or cultural differences? Like, is it better to fold your t-shirts this way as opposed to any other way? I'm not saying I disapprove - I'm just wondering if there is an explicit reason why I should start folding my shirts this way instead of the way my mother taught me. Does it save space? Leave fewer wrinkles?

[MagicklessSorceress]

@NeologicNinja I think it's partly for the speed (because DANG that was fast!) and partly because it wrinkles less.

[88isthenumber]

@NeologicNinja there is no reason/benefit behind this it's just to show you a different way to do something, most of the Japanese here do it a lot and they see it as the "normal way" for them but to us it is different...

[Airigh]

@NeologicNinja It's flatter and saves space.

[ppiilloottee]

C est très bien !

[gsbilol]

ur vid was the only japanese shirt folding video that i understanded i finally can do it

[dwiththepower3]

I love it thx :)

[04therebellady]

i tried it and it was a fail

[JestaKilla]

Damn you, Japan!

[CCstormgust]

it work !

[Belaster7771]

Now that's how you should a t-shirt for retail and home!!!! ^_^ loves it!!!!!

[WeirdArtista]

This is an art?! Hahahaha! Yes, b/c folding t-shirts is so difficult! Honestly though, thanks for this video. :P

[TehRealCanadarocker]

Well my drawer will now actually have clothes folded instead of thrown in

[lishakara]

Holy crap it works!

whoever came up with this method is a genius

[MariiMonster854]

I did it :D

[syene90]

omigosh omigosh I can do it!!! The first time I was ambitious but not rubbish :P

[BlueBROWNPRIDE]

I did it

[BryantHIx]

than you this helped my oh so much

[TheUniverseKiss]

I can't do it ;-;

[cheehooBulleh]

DUDE! LIKE DUDE! too bad i already hung up all my shirts. haha.

[nathanslaughter123]

Awsome, thank you

[TheNueiz]

It's either I suck at folding cloth or I'm just really bad at doing something normally.

[Julio98245]

@HHknight6 I know, it's so fun folding t-shirts now, and I'm just 10!

[MegaLovetocomment]

thanks



[HHknight6]

Wow this makes folding clothes fun

[DantehMan]

Fantastic! Sure hope it doesn't wrinkle though.

[HERTOPIA]

Little off center

[ofakar]

holy shit it worked on first try! Never thought folding a tshirt would impress me!

[TheBlackychan09]

OMG i actually got it!! my mom is gonna be so jealous lol

[MsYanochka88]

thank you! this is genius! I'm refolding all my non-folded shirts and actually having fun.

[mychocolatemusic]

OH MY GOSH.

[hakenz08]

muchos gracias ladies.. :)

[MrSeattlelover]

thank you!

[texasshiva]

Thank you Abby.

[dz2011]

thank you Abby.

[xar51]

Their math will destroy them. It will rid them of their humanity. Efficiency becomes cold and calculated. Math is the language of perfection. In perfection the human spirit can not survive.

[akhan360]

@xar51 lol you sound like one of those guys that's narrating an epic movie trailer in that deep-ass voice.

[mychocolatemusic]

@xar51 What the hello?

[SnOrfus]

I fold my shirts this way now. It's awesome, easy and works.

[GTDyno]

Ninjas

[smiles5433]

I tried this and it works! The front looks perfect, but the back is not. The back has part of the shirt with the sleeve and it always flops out so it's hard to pick up the shirt

[Finessestylah]

pretty funny how the japanese tutorials had small t-shirts and then the American one has a huge shirt

[luthehappy7]

WORKED FROM THE FIRST TIME!!!!!!!!

[banana551000]

Oh yeah, my mom caught me up late at night, and got mad that I was up late, but she quickly forgot about it as soon as I told her I was practicing how to fold a t shirt.

[banana551000]

This is why I love japanese people, one of my friends, his name is Kenji, he's like my best friend! BROMANCE. No homo.

[ClawlessReaver]

thanks for showing this. Really getting the hang of it :) I've got really limited space in my room, and don't have a cupboard but I have this clothes tidy thing instead that stands vertically which means I have to fold everything. If I fold shirts the way you've shown I save way more space, as the way they're usually folded makes them thicker. Also, it's the way they do it in shops haha Sorry this is well geeky but thanks :L:L

[hazelnut4991]

THIS IS SOOOOOOO COOOOOOOOL

[mangafreak08]

im just amazed at how many people watch videos about folding clothes lol

[xAutumnKiss]

YEAHHHH !! I CAN DO DIS

[coolasj]

This is amazing! Thank you :)

[hootiepaladin]

Hey thanks. I watched the Japanese version and got confused by all the haikus.

[TheCartoonfan27]

I kept on trying, but it doesn't work and WHAT KIND WITCHCRAFT IS THIS

[Android2137]

@TheCartoonfan27 I know. SERIOUSLY!  WHY ISN'T IT WORKING FOR ME?!

[TheCartoonfan27]

@Android2137 I finally figured it out the day after I posted that comment; I was doing that point a b c thing on the side of the shirt closest to where I was. Instead I should have done that on the opposite side. Now I can do it easily :D

[K4inan]

@Android2137 Practice makes perfect.. I'm just very intelligent so I figured it out in an instant :D

[silverpixie101]

I can acutaly fold shirts now THANK YOU

[lannazazaz]

I HAVE FINALLY CONQUERED THIS WITCH CRAFT!

[RamboStu]

Now I too can fold my shirts with 12% more efficiency.

[colinsprague1]

Thanks to the english version, I finally know how to fold a t-shirt like a boss

[teamnevergraduate]

that's f*cking awesome!

[TropiKatrina]

Props to the Japanese for making this fun.

[MadForColors]

Why are people stressing the "perfect" fold?

[rhumbustification]

Yeah. Thanks Abby :p

[goget55555]

[YotamaShoro]

[bladeican]

[Whatizloves]

[MIMIC8801]

lol i'm doing laundry right now and i remembered that there was a more efficient way of folding t-shirts. i got a perfect fold upon my first attempt! thanx!

[sta4ful]

Hard bit done out of shot. This is the David Blane school of t-shirt folding.

[ShinDaHana]
