Packing a suitcase can, notoriously, be a nightmare. From a burst toiletries bag to crumpled cuffs and creased collars, learning how to stow your clothes and accessories accordingly is one of the most important skills a gentleman can master.

Learn these basics and you will pack a case perfectly every time – especially important for when you need to make a quick getaway or sleep through your alarm. Gentleman’s Journal got together with Globe-Trotter to offer you a quick and easy guide to packing your case – simple solutions to conundrums and complications that arise every time you unclip those catches.

Gentlemen's Journal is happy to partner with The Prince’s Trust RISE campaign, which is working to create a network of young adults aged between 21-45, who are passionate about social mobility. You can become a Prince’s Trust Riser by donating just £20 per month to the scheme.
