Tip 157: Roll up a shirt.


There is a way of transporting a cotton shirt that completely defies the powers of creasage.
Put the shirt on the ground. Place a pair of black matte leather Julius Marlowes onto it. Fold the arms in along the shoulder seams. Roll the shirt around the shoes, all the while maintaining an attitude of roundness in the fabric, never encouraging sharp movements that could contort the fabric.
Lower the bundle gingerly into your messenger bag.
There is a way of transporting a cotton shirt that completely defies the powers of creasage. This is not it. Throw an orange and a tupperware container full of last night's left over cous-cous in there, and pedal off.
BONUS TIP: The way of transporting a cotton shirt that completely defies the powers of creasage is known only to origami super computers, not to cyclists' brains. Get ready for gibes like “Can I help you … find an iron?!” as you wander round looking like you got rumbled by a gang of acute angles on the way to the office.
