Best men's dress shirt folding technique I've seen so far ...

How to fold a dress shirt

There are only so many variations on this theme, but many of the methods I've seen are too fiddly with the sleeves (trying to get all the complex folds you see when you unwrap a new shirt), or fold the sleeves straight down the back instead of across the back, as in this video. For whatever reason, I have found this to be quick, easy, and foolproof, thought I'd share. While the EC Pack-It is perhaps the most loved item around here after an AirBoss bag, I've never seen the need for it. I fold using this method, alternate collars and wrap the shirt bundle with dry cleaning plastic.

Till: I've obsessed over toiletry bags for a few years now, and have several. I finally went minimalist and now use your suggestion of a heavy duty zip-lock bag. I put hair brush, comb, electric toothbrush, disposable razors, shaving soap brush (in drugstore pill box), etcetera in a large freezer bag. I put collar stays, cufflinks, band aids, and pain releivers, stuff not needed in morning grooming, in a small, snack-sized ziplock inside that. Liquids go in their own smaller zip lock, although I've left them in my bag for over a year now and TSA does not seem to care. I notice most folks do not pull out liquids any more. But they are in an easy to grab bag.



It's flat, it weighs nothing, it's a great method. I used to be a luggage/bag freak, now I'm a minimalist freak, and once I let go of the toiletry bag, I felt so relieved. This is me, I guess.
