The last one is the one that my parents have always done, but I like space saving, so I go with the roll method and the square method. If you wear ankle socks like I do, I recommend the roll method.
In case anyone is looking at ways to fold socks for the same purpose that I am, the folds that survived retrieves from my service dog best were the square method and the military method. She was able to bring me both socks in one retrieve and they were easier for her to carry.
1. square 0:30 slow but pretty and recognizable 2. single-fold 3. roll 4. millitary 3:11 fast but ugly and NOT recognizable 5. fold and tuck 4:04 great for stacking and recognizable 6. flip and tuck 4:53 fast but a bit ugly and recognizable(favorite)
I came up with the "fold & tuck method" (#5) on my own, except I fold the top sock in 3rds, then fold the bottom sock's cuff over the top sock & tuck the bottom sock's toes into the cuff (like in the video). It's a little easier to tuck one toe instead of both. I like a neat square (or square-ish) shape, so for longer socks like the ones in the video or longer, I just fold the top sock into a square, & place it closer to the cuff of the sock underneath (but leave enough room so the cuff can fold up on top, like in the video). Then for bottom sock's toe, just fold the toe end over itself before tucking into the cuff. For longer socks, I fold the bottom sock's toe all the way underneath the top sock, then tuck the toe end's now-folded side into the cuff. (And for super-long socks I fold it all the way underneath the top sock, then fold it in half before tucking into the cuff.) I like how they stack neatly in the drawer & I can group similar socks in the same stack, so it's easy to find the ones I want. They also don't fall apart when moved around, so it's great for packing a bag for a trip.
In Belgium most people use a variation on the last method: lay the 2 socks on eachother, fold them together in half from the heel point. After, flip one whole sock with the other one inside it inside out. It's a pretty flat rectangle. And it's super fast.
Best for last. This works enough for me as I keep my sock drawer and dresser in my closet. I just need to be able to open the drawer and grab a matched pair of socks
The square and the roll we're really the ones I have been really adapting to lately. Thanks for the tutorial, really helps my cabinet filled with socks stay organized ❤️
Your video is also very useful. It helped me a lot. I bought 20 smaconsum before. They bought a few more. They were still worried about not having a place to put them
When my 4 sons were young I bought a lot of diaper pins for them to pin the toes of socks together. When they and my husband take them off they keep the pin to put on when they put the socks in the dirty clothes. They didn't mind and I never had to match socks again. They are now grown and still pin the socks together to wash them.
I do #5 the Fold and Tuck, it’s fast easy and aesthetically appealing and space saving. This method when compared to #1 square method, seems to be much faster with similar results. The 1# method had too many tucks and folds and took 1 minute for them to complete and #5 took 20 seconds. Of course, it’s slowed down for the presentation and at home it should take less time than that.
Ooh I didn't know there were so many ways :0 I'm surprised the one I got taught wasn't even in there idk if that's a bad sign 😂 just one sock inside out, one normal; fold them in half on top of each other with the inside out one on the outside then invert it
I've always done method #6, Flip & Tuck for my no-show athletic socks, which I wear in the summer. To my surprise, when I took the cotton ones out of the drawer this spring I discovered that the tops had stretched out of shape over the winter and now the socks crawl down into my sneakers when I walk. From now on, I'm going to use clothespins to keep the matching socks together in the drawer.
I fold my socks similar to #5, & modify it for longer socks. I fold the top sock in 3rds, then fold the bottom sock's cuff over the top sock & tuck the bottom sock's toes into the cuff (like in the video). It's a little easier to tuck one toe instead of both. I like a neat square (or square-ish) shape, so for longer socks like the ones in the video or longer, I just fold the top sock into a square, & place it closer to the cuff of the sock underneath (but leave enough room so the cuff can fold up on top, like in the video). Then for bottom sock's toe, just fold the toe end over itself before tucking into the cuff. For much longer socks, I fold the bottom sock's toe all the way underneath the top sock, then tuck the toe end's now-folded side into the cuff. (And for super-long socks I fold the toe all the way underneath the top sock, then fold it in half before tucking into the cuff.)
why do the ones in the video the gold checkered socks look better than the ones on the website you should make socks in that pattern but like a peachypink light yellow and with black bottom and heels you should do pastel ones as wells what i mean is do the same pattern but different colors as well make it fun compression socks are good to so i would love the checkered sock to have a compression sock pair as well
Thank you for the video. However my gf has this amazing method keeps them very tidy, like in a store, never causes a stretch in the cuffs and great space saver. I just filmed it but I don’t know how to post here though. Please inbox me if you want me to share it with you or something.
Adulthood sneaks up on you. In one moment you're young and hip and suddenly you're watching socks folding tutorial.
Thank you. I cannot stop laughing.
Lmaoooo yes yes yes this is me
I’m 12 /:
i’m 16 and going crazy
I’m 13:/
I don’t know why I am up watching socks folding tutorials at age 15 but yet I’m enjoying it
The last one is the one that my parents have always done, but I like space saving, so I go with the roll method and the square method. If you wear ankle socks like I do, I recommend the roll method.
Same dude
I used the first method to pack a gift of socks for someone and the presentation made them look really lovely. Thank you for sharing!
Very creative and useful methods ❤ thanks 🙏
I love the Not stretching the cuff!
In case anyone is looking at ways to fold socks for the same purpose that I am, the folds that survived retrieves from my service dog best were the square method and the military method. She was able to bring me both socks in one retrieve and they were easier for her to carry.
I like the square fold method. Awesome! Thx for sharing & at a pace that can be followed!!!
Ok is it just me or do you see how cute these socks are and I really want all of these cute socks!!!❤❤
1. square 0:30 slow but pretty and recognizable
2. single-fold
3. roll
4. millitary 3:11 fast but ugly and NOT recognizable
5. fold and tuck 4:04 great for stacking and recognizable
6. flip and tuck 4:53 fast but a bit ugly and recognizable(favorite)
Thanks, the first one I really like it.
I have been using no 2. But now, I like no 5 the most. The pair doesn't separate and it's easy. Thanks
I like the 5th method. Its easy for me. TKS 4 sharing.
Me too. They are all good but the 5th one is very easy to remember and not at all time consuming.🙂

No. 6 is the one I've always done. I shall try some of the other methods for a change. Thank you for great ideas.
What a fabulous video! Love your sock collection too. ☺️

My method too. Hi from Greece 🙂
Same here in Switzerland
I like 1. but it's too time-consuming, so 5. will do! 😂👍
Nice & clean explanation!! Thank you!
Best for last. This works enough for me as I keep my sock drawer and dresser in my closet. I just need to be able to open the drawer and grab a matched pair of socks
The Military method is great for traveling. Thanks for these wonderful methods on how to save space and to stay organized.
So I just learned to fold socks AND a fitted sheet, This shelter in place needs to end! (I went with sock fold #5)
🤣🤣🤣🤣I'm benefiting I'll have the most organized apartment EVER ! 😭🤣👐🏾
Lmao it still going on
À
also m,e rich l
I’ll agree on the 5th method.
The square and the roll we're really the ones I have been really adapting to lately. Thanks for the tutorial, really helps my cabinet filled with socks stay organized ❤️
I like the fold and tuck method.
Your video is also very useful. It helped me a lot. I bought 20 smaconsum before. They bought a few more. They were still worried about not having a place to put them
I searched for “Smaconsum” on Google, and I liked the texture and price
It's the last one for me 😁 Like the yellow socks 💛 Thank you for the lessons.
military method... i just loved
it
Love the military suggestion..!
I've always done the last one but, take it down till no toes are dangling out...
number 5 is the best thank you very much
Fold and tuck gang where you at?
When my 4 sons were young I bought a lot of diaper pins for them to pin the toes of socks together. When they and my husband take them off they keep the pin to put on when they put the socks in the dirty clothes. They didn't mind and I never had to match socks again. They are now grown and still pin the socks together to wash them.
Awesome video, thank you
okayyyyy... anyone waiting for the smaller socks?
Facts, I went with the one at 3:56 aka number 4
Yes😭
I just put one sock into the other. No stretching long ones at the tops. Small socks are easy to lay and see.
Me😂
Luv the Name " Goldie.. " fold #1 is for me.
Gonna try 1 and 5 for drawer, been doing 6 all this time
My mom and my grandmother do folding the socks as a ball and it works thanks to my mom and my grandmother
I do #5 the Fold and Tuck, it’s fast easy and aesthetically appealing and space saving. This method when compared to #1 square method, seems to be much faster with similar results.

everyone is talking about adulthood but i’m 19 watching these 😭
I’m 13 😳😂
Me being 10 ;-; I-

19 like you, I need the tidiness 😌
19 is adulthood!! Am i wrong? o.0
#5 love it - thx!
NMR 4 simple thanks you sou much 🥰👍
Nice one ❤❤❤❤
I like the first one
Great socks! thanks for your video!
¡Thank you very much! It is very functional and has served me perfectly.
First method is very good
I use the last method as it's the quickest. I think I am "get over with that work" kind of a person.
Great ways, however I wish there were examples for short ankle athletic socks...
I've always done method #6, Flip & Tuck for my no-show athletic socks, which I wear in the summer. To my surprise, when I took the cotton ones out of the drawer this spring I discovered that the tops had stretched out of shape over the winter and now the socks crawl down into my sneakers when I walk.

Any suggestions for folding pairs of thin knee-length stockings? 😵💫
Square and Military worked best for me!
This definitely helped me sort out my socks blunders
I find the 5th method is the best
I’ve been doing number 6 my whole life, i didn’t even know there were other methods. Instead of halfway, I do it about 3/4
Amen 😂
Thank you 🙏🏻
Thank you!! Good job.
i did all but just number 5 works and is easy
Nice for long socks, but best way for crew socks..
Glad there are people like me
Impressive ways to fold the socks. Like it.
Thank u so much
im starting socks little business this helped me, thank you!
Thanks! I go for method number 5..
omg, I loved this, thanks!
Thanks, now I can save more space!!
Oh, I do the military roll. Interesting. Works well for short ankle socks
What do you have for ankle, low cut and no show socks? 🤔
We are a new business and only offer crew socks at this time. Looking forward to having more styles in the future though.
Number 4 works pretty well for those as well
Thank you very much
Very awesome colors
Thanks for the video i learnt the best way to fold socks
That just adds stretch to the cuff. I prefer the fold over method.
Thank you!
so far 5 is the best
This is a good idea
Good idea
Thank you.
Very helpful. Thank you!
I don’t use my long socks much so they spend a lot of time stored and I’m wondering if it’ll stretch over time if I use the military method
Yes. If the cuffs aren't relaxed, they will stretch out. The military method pulls the cuffs quite a bit.
Goldie Socks thank you so much. I found a different way to fold them
I fold my socks similar to #5, & modify it for longer socks.
I fold the top sock in 3rds, then fold the bottom sock's cuff over the top sock & tuck the bottom sock's toes into the cuff (like in the video). It's a little easier to tuck one toe instead of both.

(And for super-long socks I fold the toe all the way underneath the top sock, then fold it in half before tucking into the cuff.)
I am really thankful
The 1st method is the best for me - thx
Good idea.............💕💕💕
last one is goated
Thank you
I do the military method... Time to try another method
I use the #6 method but I tuck the toes into the tube after
#7, roll one sock, stuff in the other sock. Leave as is or fold to make it neat.
The 5th one was more comfy in my pov
why do the ones in the video the gold checkered socks look better than the ones on the website you should make socks in that pattern but like a peachypink light yellow and with black bottom and heels you should do pastel ones as wells what i mean is do the same pattern but different colors as well make it fun compression socks are good to so i would love the checkered sock to have a compression sock pair as well
I put my socks inside of each other. I saw it when I bought some socks at a store years ago
Thank you for the video. However my gf has this amazing method keeps them very tidy, like in a store, never causes a stretch in the cuffs and great space saver. I just filmed it but I don’t know how to post here though. Please inbox me if you want me to share it with you or something.
You can post it on your own RUclips channel, then share the link to your video in the comments.
I like the military method
Nice i wanna try this
Genius. (Cross method for me). 🙏 ❤
and we still dont know wich ones left or right
😮 wow instresting
Thank you ... 🌹
the fifth method is good. most of the tucking methods ends up making one sock very loose.
I was watching a playlist of the band Unlucky Morpheus and this was the last video
Unfinished
I do the last one but the toes are rolled in the whole way
THANK YOU 🙏🏻
nice with 2 hands and short socks mine reach the knee for my legsupports to cover them so folding those with one hand is hell
