How do you compress a hoodie?

Published in Clothing Storage 1 min read

You can compress a hoodie by folding and rolling it tightly, then tucking the rolled-up body into the hood to create a compact bundle. This method is particularly useful for travel.

Here's a breakdown of the compression method described in the reference:

  1. Lay the hoodie flat: Smooth out any wrinkles to minimize bulk.
  2. Fold: Fold the sides of the hoodie inward towards the center, creating a long rectangle.
  3. Roll tightly: Starting from the bottom (opposite the hood), tightly roll the hoodie upwards towards the hood. Keep the roll tight to squeeze out excess air and reduce the overall size.
  4. Use the hood: Once you reach the hood, roll the entire bundle into the hood, essentially turning the hood inside out around the rolled-up body. This creates a secure and compact package.

This technique effectively utilizes the hoodie's own hood as a built-in compression sack.
