Here's why:
* Size: Trench coats are long and bulky. Even the largest pockets are too small to fit the entire coat.
* Fabric: Trench coats are often made of heavy, stiff materials like gabardine or cotton twill. These materials are not easily folded into small spaces.
Instead of trying to fold a trench coat into its own pocket, try these methods for storage and travel:
* Hang it on a hanger: The best way to store a trench coat is to hang it on a sturdy hanger in a well-ventilated space.
* Fold it neatly: If you need to pack your trench coat, fold it in half lengthwise, then fold it in half again. Roll it up from the bottom to create a compact package.
* Use a garment bag: A garment bag provides protection and helps keep your trench coat wrinkle-free during travel.
Remember:
* Avoid folding the coat for extended periods. Frequent folding can cause creases and damage.
* If you must fold it, use a clean, dry cloth to cover the coat before folding to protect it from dust and dirt.
