That's the way I fold my shirts now. Very simple to learn. I found an English version though.

I can't do it! My shirt ended up in a crumpled ball! I need an english version or slow motion or something.

I'd say that it worked. That's how my shirts end up anyways, so I just crumple them up to begin with :laugh:

This technique looks neat - I admit I was amazed the first time I saw the video - but my own technique yields the same result, is quicker, and doesn't require you to lay the shirt down in the first place.

Grab the shirt by the shoulders, and shake it until the hem is flat. Holding the shirt with your thumbs and index fingers, use your other fingers to fold the outermost portions of the shirt, including the sleeves, behind the shirt. Drop the hem of the shirt onto a flat surface, and fold the shirt in half.

Takes about 2 seconds, yields a perfect fold.

I actually use this to fold my t-shirts. and i have been doing this for a while...
it's definately faster than any other folding method. once you are used to it, you can fold a load of shirts less than 5 or 10 minutes

It's still slower than mine, which doesn't require taking the time to lay the shirts out flat, and yields identical results.
