went on a trip to Taipei. not one bag, brought multiple bags because I planned to buy a lot of food to bring back to family. Taipei in July is very hot and humid, had to change my shirt around mid afternoon. i havent tried the towel drying method yet, figured it was a great time to test it. hand washed the 2 shirts I used, then rolled them up one by one. by the time i hung them up, they were no longer dripping. after ~8 hrs, they were completely dry and wrinkle-free. steps I took:
- skipped the stepping on the towel part. instead, i wrung the shirt to remove excess water.
- rolled the shirt-towel into a burrito and made sure that the roll is very tight then wrung it again.
- flipped the towel and also flipped the shirt. made sure that the opposite side of the shirt now makes contact with the fresh side of the towel.
- repeat the rolling and wringing.
- flicked each shirt with a strong wrist movement (snapped to reduce wrinkles).
- hung them on the backs of plastic chairs.
these were ordinary cotton shirts (Hanes, to be specific), i did not use travel shirts with specialized blends.
