I have recently discovered a technique called “ranger rolling” which has proven ridiculously useful in dealing with my clothing. It basically allows you to turn each item of clothing into an individual block, which you then use to play real life Tetris. This is a much better system than treating them as stacks of paper (which is what happens when you fold them) or as amorphous blobs (which is what happens when you shove them into drawers however you can).
I’ve never heard it called that, but I roll most of my clothes when traveling for work. They end up less wrinkled and you can fit a lot into a small volume. I highly recommend it.
Looks interesting, but I’m assuming this doesn’t work if I like to iron my clothes before storing them. Is that right, or does the rolling not majorly detract from the ironing?

I don’t iron my clothes before storing them, so I couldn’t tell you, but surely this is an opportunity to practice the virtue of empiricism? Iron a couple of shirts, carefully roll them, leave them for a day or two, and check how the wrinkling compares to your usual method of storage. Then share your results for goodwill and karma.

Asking is also a virtue.
