Bro. Short and sweet video. Thanks man you saved a lot of my precious time unlike those who use a million things with 20 minutes video for 1 minute of folding
Haha so happy you sent this comment. That was literally my exact goal with the video. Nothing too fancy, but just get you ready to get out the door. Thanks for watching!
I have traveled extensively. If you use dry cleaners plastic bags to put your folded garments in it prevents wrinkles because it reduces friction.
Dang, never thought of this! Totally going to try it for my trips moving forward. Thanks Dorcas for the tip for everyone
Awesome 👌
Truly handy advice as a pack for Hana Blažíková's concerts in Prague (7 & 14 Dec) ... 🖤🙏🏻
So happy you found in it helpful Don! Enjoy the trip and live it up 🙌
Spot on 😊
Appreciate the feedback. Glad the video was helpful! Safe travels to ya
Really helpful video! Thank you bro! First time travelling with a suit LOL
You're welcome man! Hope the suit held up and the travels went well
Thanks! Saved my life here ❤️
You're welcome. Tried to keep it simple and to-the-point even though my camera skills aren't the best. Hope the trip went well!
Thank you for the step by step video. Hubby is traveling for a week and I needed ideas on how to pack his suits.
You're welcome! I know it wasn't the prettiest video - but I swear this is the way to do it! You got this. Take care.
Thank you sir! This was very helpful. Currently packing to go to Turkey! 😀
Love that it helped you! Hope the trip is amazing and safe (and efficient-packing) travels
Very well explained, bro. Thank you!
You're welcome and glad you enjoyed! Happy traveling.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this.
You're welcome! Hope it was a quick helpful video.
@@AlexMDorr yes it was very helpful. 🙂 Thank you
Thx
You're welcome! So glad you found it helpful.
Great method. You forgot to pack everything else though (or leave space for it). I'm interested to see how this pans out. I think it'll still get creases, but there will be fewer and they'll be easier to iron out. Thank you for the simple tutorial!
Haha that is so true! I typically pack just like this for up to 4 day trips. I stick with one pair of black dress shoes and put running shoes in my backpack. I then pack 4 Mitzen and Main shirts because they are so perfect for not wrinkling. I have it on my list to make a video for a longer trip that I do for work.
Forgot to add to this - I only take one pair of dress pants for the 4 days. Keep it simple with black or grey because it matches the one pair of black dress shoes. This is all about efficiencies. The 4 Mitzen and Main shirts never wrinkle so there is some forgiveness there. Then one or two pairs of jeans, one pair of sweats or shorts and then 3 teeshirts. The one long-sleeve or jacket, I drape over the carry-on. Hasn't failed me in 8 years to always travel with the carry-on. Hope this helps anyone looking to travel light and with style!
Thanku❤️
You're welcome! Happy travels
I like the folding methods for each, yet would have found a way to incorporate packing into the garment side of the luggage.
I appreciate that feedback. That is a good call. For many of my trips I would be gone 3-5 days so I would definitely have to use the space better. I was just doing this to finish the example. That may be a better video to create one that shows a longer trip. Thank you!
Great video! What’s the brand of your carry on?
Thank you! The brand is Away Luggage. I was in on the original offering like 6 years ago and have done about 100-120 days on the road for the last 3 years and it is still holding up!
Any technique for a polo shirt that fits in my bookbag
Haven't tried that yet! Will add this to the list to see if I can get something easy for you. Thanks for watching! I believe that Marie Kondo has an amazing technique for folding those and rolling them up that packs the super clean and ensures there are no wrinkles. That may help!
Thanks. I got a traditional moroccon thobe (long single piece garment) and putting it in a bag and seeing it go from ironed crisp to crunch was unpleasant...
Dang, that sounds brutal. Hope all is well with the amazing piece. :(
When you open it later, does the shirt have any wrinkles?
Great question - for me they never do. If you happen to leave the shirt in there for a couple of days with some extra weight on it - it might. I also found that buying Mizzen+Main shirts keeps you from having wrinkles as well. Hope this helps!
Not sure about the suits, though. Don't they usually come with a separate carrying case including a hanger?
You can absolutely do all of that, but I found them super annoying to take on the plane. I'm all about fitting everything in a carry-on if possible. With that Away luggage I had there and Mitzen and Main shirts, I've been able to do 4 day trips all in there. Let me know if you find a better solution though!
@@AlexMDorrwhich way prevents creases the most though??
Hope it works
Ohhh, there is no need to hope. It works - every time! Have a great trip :)
Thanks from Chin land
You're welcome!
Do you wear the jacket on the plane? If not wear do you store it while in flight?
Great question - if it is cold, I wear it on the plane. If not, I just lay it right on top of my suitcase in the overhead compartment. Maybe not the best as far as being the most clean, but it usually fits up there nicely. Just don't forget it! I've already lost 2 in my career...
Handsome
Thank you thank you!
That is not how you fold a suit jacket...
Works every time I take it. I typically just hang it over my suitcase actually. Would love to see how you do it so I can switch it up if there is something better!

Doing it this way guarantees no creases
Thank you for this!!!! My hubby travels a lot of work and the hangers became too bulky and frustrating. Your video was the first to pull up when I googled how to fold business clothes. Appreciate ya!!!!! 🧳📈 📊
So happy you found the video! Yes, this will DEFINITELY help consolidate a bit and make it easier. I just had a trip where I had to take 5 dress shirts on it and I fit it all in that same carry-on. Still putting the techniques to the test and they are working! Best of luck to you!
thank you so much! my husband is business traveling for the first time on the airline and I was like, I can’t use a garment bag and hangers, what am I going to do!! 🥸 woo! 😃
I remember my panic the first time I was trying to make all of this happen! All of the videos online just didn't quite get me where I needed so that's why I through this one together. Hope it helped you and made you look like a hero.
