Question

eli5 does folding a shirt one way over another method change its volume occupied in a suitcase

In: 55

Answer 1

Depends on how you define the volume of the shirt. If the volume is only the actual physical material that composes the shirt, then nothing non destructive will affect its volume. If you are referring to the volume of the suitcase dedicated exclusively to the shirt and all of the air contained within the shirt, then yes.
