##The Aruch HaShulchan OC 302:10 says that the reasoning of the Rambam and Rashi, that folding is "mesaken mannah" seems to only apply to a professional folding job, or something that will contribute significantly to the permanent improvement of the clothing. He therefore concludes that ''our'' folding should not be prohibited according to the reasoning of the Rambam and Rashi.  The reason of the Ra’avad and Tosfos would still apply, though.

##The Ra’avyah quoted by Mordechai [[Shabbos]] 388 offers a variant differentiation than the Aruch HaShulchan that satisfies even the opinion of the Raavad and Tosfos.  If one were to fold not on the creases, his folding is clearly not a mesaken mannah, because it doesn’t improve the clothing, and it is also not a concerted preparation for the next time one will wear the clothing; he is just folding it quickly and haphazardly to be able to fit it into his bag or his shelf.  The Ra’avyah, therefore, permits folding clothing (or a tallis) not on the creases.
