I saw a thread about this here or on aaac but can't find it anymore.

I'm returning a blazer from ebay which was crammed into a 8x11 envelope and would like to show how it's supposed to be done right.
Cheers, G.

I would love to hear the experts' opinions on this matter as well, as I plan to offer some nice Itialian suits/sportcoats up here in the near future.. Thanks.

Turn the jacket inside out and place one shoulder into the other shoulder, straightening the lapels.

Fold the coat and sleeves in half and lay it on a large sheet of paper

Wrap the sheet of paper and tape

Place in a box that is large enough but not too large so it doesn't move around and gets wrinkled
