Extra Advice to Pack Your Suit When Travelling
If you need it to be perfect, or you travel far, so your suit will be packed for many hours, try to follow this advice:
-
Pack your suit on a hanger without folding. You will need a big suitcase
-
Dry cleaners are likely to give you a roll of plastic bags to cover the suit - for free!
-
These plastic bags prevent the suit from wrinkling!
-
Pack your suit in an indestructible hard case bag
- When packing your dress shoes, make sure to pack them at the bottom of the suitcase, or before the suit. If you're unsure of which shoes you should take, we recommend a pair out of the following: Derby, oxford, monk strap, or loafers.
It’s that easy! Do a little effort when packing so you can have this feeling when unpacking:
Now it's time to design your new suit to be able to pack it ;)
