Four tips to pack for your trip this Summer

With holiday season upon us, we wanted to lend a helping hand with what has become the grey cloud that appears over every Summer vacation. We are talking here of course, about packing! Son of a Stag are here to offer up a few pearls of wisdom, to take the edge off the process, to minimise stress, and maximise enjoyment. So join us, as we get holiday ready this season, with a little help from Porter-Yoshida & Co.

Roll 'em, don't fold 'em!
Have you ever gotten to your dream destination only to find that there’s no iron at the hotel? This handy tip not only saves you space, but allows your clothes to crease in a more natural way, so you don’t need to worry about those ‘fresh out the box’ lines. Simply fold your garment in half vertically, and roll them from the bottom to the top.

Seperate your documents
In this day and age, nobody wants to be that guy that holds up the whole line at passport control, which is why it’s so important to have your documents ready and waiting! Luckily enough Porter Yoshida offer a superb range of compact waist bags, which are perfect for storing your valuables safely, so you don’t have to rummage through your case!

Protect your clothes with a dust bag!
Special lines from Porter Yoshida come with a custom made ‘rescue orange’ nylon dust bag, so that it can be stowed away safely. But did you ever think about using said dust bag to separate your shoes from your clothes when travelling? Keep your clothes fresh with this handy life-hack!

Pack your looks in order
There’s no shame in planning your daily looks for your vacation. In fact, the 21st Century man must always be prepared! When you’re thinking about which looks you want to take with you this summer, spare a little consideration for what order they go into the case! Day four should go at the bottom, day three on top of that, finishing off with day one. You could be wasting valuable pool-side time if you fail to plan accordingly!
