Eagle Creek Travel Gear Pack-It Folder 15

I have just returned from a 3 week tour of Germany, Switzerland, Italy, London, and New York City. One suitcase, with two Eagle Creek Pack-it folder 15's and one 20. The 20 was great for pants, and some nice Kuhl wool sweaters for layering. Dress shirts and crew necks went in one of the 15's and base layers went in another. Total bag weight was just 35 pounds. Socks and underwear went in a pair of Eagle Creek half cubes. It was so nice, everything stayed neat and organized, the shirts and pants did not wrinkle. As we moved about from day to day it was so easy to pack up the suitcase by stacking in the folders. When we arrived at a new place I could just pull the folders out and lay them on the extra bed or a table and it was easy to find everything I needed to get dressed the next day.

This is the first time I've tried using this system, and it is so much better than just dumping everything in your suitcase you can't imagine. If you have a big trip coming up, do yourself a favor and get your suitcase organized with this gear.

Just tried out the Pack-it 15.

Most of the reviews I've read speak of sweaters and men's dress shirts which is great but I wear more dresses than shirts so I thought I'd post my observations. The 15 is meant for 7 shirts. I didn't want to put 7 dresses in the pack since they tend to take up more room.. they are longer than shirts!

I was able to pack 2 mid-length dresses, 1 short dress, 2 blouses and 1 thick cardigan in a pack with room to spare. The stack of clothes folded in a pile (pre-compression) was 4 inches tall. Once I strapped the pack down with the Velcro straps the tallest part of the pack (middle was thinner than ends due to Velcro being down the middle) was just under 2.5 inch.

I left the pack sitting in my room for a full day and when I unpacked the top dress had small creases on the sides where it over lapped but very minor. The rest of the stack including my silk blouse were immaculate.

Its good to note that my short dress measured 35 inches long and the skirt portion had to be folded over. So if you are intending to use these for dresses like myself, i would suggest getting the 18 Pack-it just for a bit more room (and less folding over).

Not to bad for my first trial. Real test will be in a few days.

We did carry-ons to Europe on a trip to visit several cities in 14 days. We loved these envelopes, easy to pull out of the suitcase when looking for other items, keeps things folded and tidy. Tipuse the hard plastic folding guide card as a "shelf" in the center of the packed envelope, makes it easier to find something without accidentally unfolding other items. On motorcycle trips, we love the Eagle Creek compression bags, but they aren't good for non-knits because of the wrinkle factor the envelopes kept the clothes in better condition for least amount of touch-up. Tip take along a small empty spray bottle. Spritz your tops and bottoms the night before you wear them and hang up this gets out any small packing wrinkles I hate ironing!! On this trip, we used the compression bag for the dirty clothes, so they take up the least amount of space (don't put your underwire bras in these). We also used the Eagle Creek cubes for packing smaller items, underwear, socks, other small knits, etc.

I went on a suitcase organizing spree and bought this folder as well as other gadgets on the same order. When I received the packages I though "I over did this, there's no need for all of this!" But as I started using them all I realized that the do come in handy.

The folder is my favorite since it keeps shirts neatly arranged and the wrinkles are minimal. The size will hold about 5 shirts without an issue. You could hold more but I think wrinkles will appear then.

The construction is of great quality and the handle is very convenient as is the hard plastic folding "device" which is nothing more than a plastic rectangle with some instructions printed on it, but that is all that's needed to neatly fold shirts.

This folder plus a couple of the packing cubes, a shoe sac and a compression bag for dirty laundry are my basic organizing kit. The folder is the most ingenious solution of all of them, but you do need the other ones as well. And yes, once you have them, you'll realize, as I did, that you DO need them.

I've used Eagle Creek Pack it folders in the past and they are very good. I'd suggest the next larger size. This one is a bit small holds only a few shirts. Put too many in and they'll have creases.
