Many of our clients struggle with storing their denim. There's no right or wrong method - it depends on the space, lifestyle, collection. Scroll through to see some methods we use to store denim.
Hang pants using pant hangers
Pro: Visually pleasing, open-end hanger design allows for fast access, non-slip coating, good for high inventory
Con: Hangers are pricey, need to have the hanging space in closet
Hang pants using crisscross method
Pro: Easily access the waistband to see size/style, great for closet with short hanging space, good for high inventory
Con: More time consuming to hang
Tidy Note: This is Jared’s go-to method for storing his denim because he has a ton of different styles and sizes.
File Folding
Pro: Quantity is visible, good for low inventory
Con: Challenging to identify different sizes and styles, need a drawer or basket, does not work on shelves
Tidy Note: This is Taylor’s go-to method for storing her denim because she has a low inventory and limited space.

Flat Folding
Pro: Quick method, good for low inventory, ideal for open shelves so inventory is visible
Con: Waist band has more material than the hem causing the stack to be lopsided - to eliminate this issue, you can alternate stacking the waistband and hem sides. Difficult to remove denim from bottom of the stack
Tidy Note: This is Shannon’s go-to method for storing her denim because she has a low inventory of denim (and her days working in retail have made folding denim second nature).
