foldovers

Dough pockets, sealed

Foldovers are things that fold over on themselves.

In cooking, a foldover is a filled pastry or flatbread where dough is folded in half over a filling—a calzone or empanada style: We made ham and cheese foldovers for the party.

In clothing, foldover refers to waistbands, collars, or cuffs designed to be worn folded down: foldover yoga pants, foldover boots.
