Great video. I did a trip across Europe for 6 weeks using pretty much what you had packed and did so without any issues. However having been a Navy brat and later doing my own tour of the Pacific with Uncle Sam, I use the Navy roll pack method which is similar to what you were doing though not identical. On ships, there is limited space and one gets docked if one's clothing is all messy. Rolling clothing instead of folding alleviates a lot of problems at one's destination. It always amuses me when I see people going off somewhere for a long weekend and they have a couple suitcases. I can understand if one has kids or has some sort of specialty clothing one needs for an event but most people getting away for a short trip take way too much stuff they do not need.
Thank you for your comment!
With your rolled items you can use rubber bands around them to help keep them even more compact.
Good tip, thanks!
Maybe not so good - outside layer tends to wrinkle along the elastic line, but give it a try, it might work for you with certain items.
That's a fine looking weekend bag John. Just checked out the Mahi UK site and their prices look very reasonable if the quality is as good as it looks on your video. Why not get over to the UK to meet some of your followers here! You will love the men's lifestyle scene we have going on.
Thank you ! I’d love to!
Even just for a weekend you left some things out: sunglasses, swim trunks, a ball cap, flip flops, light casual sweats to change into when you're relaxing at night, or for an early morning walk, plus since you didn't pack a light windbreaker the sweat jacket could double as a regular jacket. The sneakers you wear must work for both exercise & fashion, if the only sneakers (joggers) you're bringing are those you're wearing onto the plane.
Great advice. The roll technique makes perfect sense. Thanks. Extra. Packed a 3 day bag for trip to Destin FL using your technique. Arrived wrinkle free. Thanks again.
Good stuff. I was already rolling my clothes individually, but have now learned to roll multiple items together to minimize wrinkles. Plus, I like the loose rolling of the dress shirt. Genius!
Thank you! I hope it helps!
Now that the kids are grown, we take a few long weekend trips every year. If we are flying, I prefer a small roller bag to cruise through the airport. Otherwise, I use a weekend bag. The rolling all the pants together is the best tip!
Thank you!
Awesome video John! Lots of great practical ideas on efficient packing. I love the suggestion of doing laundry to reduce what needs to be packed. I love the bag you featured for this sponsored video.
Thank you David!
Nice video, John. Thank you for introducing me to this brand. I would love to see more of the larger Mahi Overnighter bag. Please reach out to them and see if Mahi might send you one for review. I'm really curious why there are not many reviews on the Mahi Leather bags? They look really nice, and I'd love to pick one up. I just need to see more of it.
Great video John. I need to get better at packing more efficiently. It was great finally getting to meet you in Temecula buddy. Cheers! 🍻
Likewise my man! Thanks for watching. I hope to get to hang out again soon!
Rolling is a great idea!
Thank you Matt!
Another awesome video John! Great bag, love it! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Dan!
Legend. I'm glad I've saved this video. Thank you John! Salute.
Couldn't have come at a better moment! Just as I was about to pack a weekender bag for my boys' trip to Bali, this came up in my notifications. Cheers!
Perfect! Thanks!
Great and timely video, John! I’m about to head out on a multi-location holiday and I hate checking bags! I thought I was quite adept at packing, but I will definitely incorporate your suggestions when I pack for my next jaunts! Very cool!
Thank you very much Will! I hope it helps!
Hey John safe travels ..
I was folding my trousers for short travels... this to you now I know how to make the most with little !!
Thank you very much for watching!
Excellent video John, Nice bag! Went to the site and was amazed with the value. In a future video could you do a mix- n-match look book with what you packed so we can see how many outfits you can put together from the limited # of items packed? Thanks
Great suggestion Paul! Thank you very much!
I ordered this bag last week based on this video. It came in today, and I can attest that this Mahi weekend bag is really nice. Seems to be of top quality upon first inspection.
Glad you like it!!
Great content thank you.
Thanks for covering this topic, John. Great advice on rolling clothes. Going to try that next time!
Thanks for watching Mike!
Hey John...thanks very much. I've been looking forward to your weekender bag video....this was great and much appreciated. Have a great trip to the left coast.
Thank you very much!
Great video sir! Loved the way that you packed that bag! 💯😎💪🏾
Nice video John. The only thing I’d change is I’d put my shoes in some sort of plastic bag or even shoe bags. The amount of dirt and germs on the soles of shoes is crazy. Plus it would protect the rest of your clothing if the soles happen to move around and come into contact.
Thank you!
I so overpack all the time. This was a very good video that I got some excellent advice from. Many thanks John on your attention to details.
Thank you!
John, you are a seasoned traveler! Have lots of success and fun in California.
Thank you Reggie!
Awesome video...I have been rolling my clothes for travel for some time...helps not having to worry about ironing. Dress shirts are my kryptonite so thank you for showing that!
You’re welcome, thanks!
It's great to see a man doing these types of videos.
Great video John.
Thank you!
Thanks John. Great packing tips. Enjoy the trip.
Thank you!
John, liked the way you pack your travel and you reminded me that I need to purchase a new travel bag for myself. I always found it a pain with should I bring hygiene kit or just purchase one at my destination. Again thanks for the tips.
Thank you for watching!
nice!!! Simple, elegant and very practical ...
Thank you!
Great looking bag, took advantage of the discount. Thank you! And rolling multiple items in one roll, love it.
Thank you!
Excellent video Sir! Being well dressed doesn't have to mean pack on lots of stuff and also the way one packs in order to avoid excess wrinkles sure helps.
Thank you very much Al!
All great tips, reminds me of my military days! Definitely looking into getting the travel duffel.
Its so simple when you explain it the way you did. Even with laundry facilities, some people still insist on 2 outfits per day. Thanks.
Thank you!
Thanks for the video John, using your method when I hit Vegas in October!
Thanks! Enjoy Vegas!
Rolling instead of folding. Been doing it wrong all this time.
Try it out next time!
Great video, John! Sub in a sweater for the shorts, and you're ready for fall. Everything will mix and match. This is almost exactly how my bag gets packed, except one skirt instead of the second pair of shorts, a dress instead of dress shirt.
Contact lens cases are useful for keeping a dopp kit light when you need a small amount of moisturizer, etc.
Great suggestion! Thank you very much!
Another thing you can do is keep small jewelry items such as rings and cufflinks and earrings in an old pill bottle to help keep track of them.
I ordered this bag based upon your video.
Thank you Steve! You’ll love it! 😃
I don't think Martha Stewart could have done any better. Great advice, John!
Oh, and is that your puppy in the background?
Thank you! Yes, he’s a Boston Terrier. 😃
@@40OverFashion BT are so smart and affectionate. They're great dogs.
John, the best advice for traveling came from my Mom. Once in in my hotel room, hang shirts and hang pants near the cuff. Hang in the bathroom, turn the shower on as hot as it will go. Allow clothes to “steam” for about 10 minutes. Most of the wrinkles will relax. I generally don’t have to iron dress shirts or pants if I do this. Mike
Great suggestion Mike! I’ve totally done this with suits and dress pants!
Leaving on a trip soon. Gonna try that roll method this time. Thanks for the tip!!! BTW: Keep up the GREAT WORK!!!
Thank you!
Excellent video 📹 👏
Hey John. Very helpful and something that gets overlooked. Your bag looks super spacious. Which model is the bag out of interest. Thanks
Thanks! It's the Columbus.
Do you carry a satchel/messenger bag for laptop and gadgets with the weekend bag?
Placed my order for the bag! Love it!
Awesome! You’ll love it!
My only question is how wrinkled is everything once you arrive at your final destination?.......any recommendations on a portable steamer?
Thank you! I should test out a few portable steamers!
John another great video with good content. Loving the travel bag. Will try all your suggestions on my next trip. 👌- Gurp
Thank you very much!!😃
Awesome video John! Great to see you too!! Very helpful.. Just wandering is the carry-on luggage weigh only 7kg? Hope the airline is not strict. Thank you John! God bless you always. Safe travel😉
It’s more overall size they’re worried about.
Fantastic video, thanks for making it and sharing your knowledge.
Thank you!
i plan to buy their overnighter bag. are they durable and can handle abuse?
Awesome video
Thank you!
John,
You should make a video on when is appropriate to wear tank tops. I’m at the airport and see all these dudes wearing Tank tops and i think is not appropriate. Tank tops are for the gym, the pool, the beach and maybe a bbq. What do you think?
True, thanks for the suggestion!
Yes, pure bad form, but as I've just seen 2 chaps with no upper cover at all expect the same coming to an Aeroport close to you soon (sigh).. Cheers.
Do you use packing cubes
I don’t currently, but I think I might have to try some.
Since the beginning of the video I was wondering what type of bag that was. It looks like a million bucks. I checked the link and they are super affordable. Getting one or two for sure. Wife loves them too.
That’s great! You’ll love them!
your videos are always inspirational .lot of love and respect sir
Thank you very much!
do you use shoe trees when packing shoes?
Good video John. Can you do a video of dating in your 50’s? Do’s & Don’t etc ...
Thank you! Great topic idea!
Thanks for the tips. I do the fold and roll like you do, however I roll everything separately. I like your stacking, I’m sure it eliminates more wrinkles that way than my way. I look forward to my next trip, which won’t be till October (a four night trip) and you can be sure I’ll adopt your stack method. It’ll be cool in October (smoky mountains), any suggestions for sweaters?
Thanks Bill! Thanks for the suggestion. I’m sure I will tackle the sweater topic in the next month or so.
Hi Bill, I travelled to San Francisco for a weeklong visit in January. I took a v-neck cashmere pullover and a thicker alpaca one and was ready for every occasion and temperature. Enjoy Colorado!
Neat but if bringing a leather satchel or backpack for work stuff like laptop why not just bring a rolling carry on suitcase like the Carl Friedrik or Nomatic which fit in overhead as well? Why two leather bags on your shoulder?
Hey John another question I have is it still kool to cuff your Jean's at the bottom when wearing your boots. This was the style a couple of years ago..thks (Canada)
Yes, absolutely! Watch for this Thursday’s video!
I have subscribed to u some time back ..so most definately..thanks for the quick response and as always thanks for what u do !!!
..ps hope you had a great trip
Cheers
Great video. How about your toiletry bag, did you carry one?
Yes, I show it in this video!
You should be able to get two pairs of socks stuffed into every pair of shoes. I always do that, because it saves just a little bit of space, although my overnight bag is a bit bigger than that - but I do tend to take a bit more for 10 days.
Yes, absolutely!
When are you doing one of those “meet up” reunions in Orlando FL?????? Dude I hope your trip was amazing. Thanks for this video I can surely apply everything in it.
Thank you very much!
You should keep the toiletries more accesible as you have to remove them at the airport. So id switch places of the undies and socks with the toiletry bag. Unless you have TSA precheck.
Which MAHI leather bag is shown in the video? Thanks.
The one I’m using is the Columbus.
@@40OverFashion Looks like a great "weekend in Vegas" bag. I'll definitely check out the line of bags at the MAHI website. Thanks.
John, diggin’ that hot pink underwear...wild man! I learned the rolled clothes technique years ago and still do it...works every time!
Haha! Thanks!
Great tips. Boston or Frenchie in the background!?
Boston!
@@40OverFashion Best dogs! we just lost our at the beginning of the year. The perfect little gentleman!
Good segment as always. You need to remember to use all available space when packing. Shoes should be stuffed with socks and underwear. Not only does this make use of empty space it also substitutes for a shoe tree and keeps dress shoes looking great. Also wrap watches in socks before placing in shoes. 👍
Very good point Alex! Thank you!
I understand putting socks into shoes, but I wouldn't ever want to put underwear into shoes. I resist packing super efficiently because my bag is lighter when the last fifteen items stayed home, and my blood pressure is lower when TSA decides to pull everything out of my bag at security check. A fully packed bag is a nightmare to reassemble when everything's been pulled out.
Transparent zippered bags that new linens came in became free packing cubes to fit in my travel bag. I limit myself to ten clothing items and three pairs of shoes in all, so there's only two pairs of shoes and seven or eight shirts, pants, etc. in the bag. The bag goes under the seat, saving overhead bin space for others.
@@rheamorales1329 Obviously to each their own. Personally I prefer to maximize my space and I will always use at least the overhead storage for my carry-on. If I'm heading overseas I will bring an overhead bag as well as a backpack that fits under the seat. I believe in being as efficient as possible when packing and that means using every inch for something I'm bringing. Typically I don't have my bag inspected but whenever I have it has never been a full bag unpack so I'm not worried about how much I have in there.
BTW I would highly suggest registering for Global entry or TSA PreCheck so your TSA experience will go a bit smoother. If you have a good Credit card it may give you a reimbursement for signing up for one of those services. If you do I highly suggest getting Global Entry as that will get you the additional benefit of TSA PreCheck as long as you enter your Known Traveler Number into your flight reservations. And if you travel abroad it's worth it's weight in gold when coming back into the states and avoiding long Customs lines.
Her buddy, what brings you to La La land? I'm just over in the San Marino area of the San Gabriel valley.
I have some work here. I’ll be back in a few weeks.
@@40OverFashion that's pretty awesome. Well, hope all goes well. Today, I'm on south raymond in Pasadena having my latest P.E.T. scan being done. Lol hopefully, you're appointment is far more enjoyable.
add one chino, remove one short..that would be my taste...
Thank you!
Can’t believe you have 10 days in that little bag. Impressive. 👍
Thank you!
Is that the "Columbus Weekender Bag"? I went to the website and your bag looks bigger than the dimensions I see online.
Yes, it’s the Columbus.
so I usually stuff socks and underwear into my shoes. I think that uses the space better
Wow! We are truly in trouble.
Also love your wild(?) patterned undies. I was a little surprised! Have you done any underwear reviews?
Yes, search tough my videos and you'll see it.
Dude, that is one big carry-on bag! If I tried to to take that thru here in Canada I am sure 2 female security guards would tackle me to the ground. Regardless want one.
Haha! Thanks!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great video plus tips, wishing you success & safe travels....... Abrazos
Thank you!
nice video nice house john and I can see your pet in the corner right side of you..
Haha! Thanks!
How muçh.
Damn nine days went to 3 years lol
Pro tip: Roll the pants from the waist to the ankle
Thank you!
I'm sorry, what are saying ( being distracted by dog)?
How to pack a weekender bag.
1. Get stuff for weekend
2. Put in bag
I refuse to carry a bag. Always use a rolling case.
Totally understand!
:)
Lots of great knowledge bombs dropped in this video, John! Thanks for sharing!
Sorry I missed out on your meet up. Perhaps next time!
Thanks Kevin!
