last time Daiso also sell those compression bags, for pillows, comforter, winter clothing and those fluffy stuff

the idea is similar, roll the clothes in airtight bags, and close the air inlets.
some call it vacuum bag for garments

yeah im using these to pack 1 bag/1-2days of clothes....bought from shopee... works great for comforters, pillows, fluffy stuff etc.

honestly they dont do much to help with space saving when its clothes.. coz after compress the bag is quite stiff and not really pliable/bendable. but still good to have coz i will fold my dirty laundry and shove it in there and close and compress them.. saves the other clothes from stinking as well.

get the roll to compress type... dont bother with those that uses vacuum or the hand pump... save space abit when packing and u may not have access to a vacuum at ur destination.



for the ride itself i use long compression pants and long sleeve compression shirt as my underwear.....completely commando under there. reach hotel wash them in the sink/shower with detergent that i bring along. quick drying so itll be dry by the next day and just re-use. compression wear is also supposed to help with fatigue.

If you're a normal, or slightly slender side clothes can easily find at shops. Not enough dry clean cloth just visit any shop and get new ones.

I frequently do 1-2 weeks camping trip and at minimum 2 pairs in the backpack. 1 pair shirt + cargo pants that I wear and another 2 pair in the bag. Wash the cloth when you stop. Self serve laundry is everywhere. Or wash and rinse at the river.

I wear a new pair every night, sleep in it and entire day tomorrow. I don't sweat a lot at night so it's doable for me.

I am not outdoor person that go camping etc., hence clueless about packing light. Ok, not so clueless but doubting if anything I am doing at the moment can be further optimized.

Quick dry clothing is on my list. Trying out few.

Quick dry underwear, bought a few from shopee but not as quick dry as they claim.

Shirt and pants, yes, definitely quick dry. Can wash and hang dry overnight, or just 1 hour under fan.

Packing is not an issue for me. How many to pack is a question mark but I roughly got the idea.

Socks never have quick dry, so always got extra pair that I bring along.

I found this

https://shopee.com.my/Motowolf-MDL0701-40L-...98-cdc885d93a8d

Has a valve for compression. Don't know if it will work the same, but I think it should.

That's just a moto tail bag. Not a compression bag. Too big for just clothes....unless you tend to pack a lot.

A compression dry bag will have straps to ratchet the bag down to squeeze out the air, kinda like good sleeping bags.

my compression bags are like this.

https://shopee.com.my/Travel-Organizers-Han...f3-f3cf245bffa8

You can use hair shampoo to wash your clothes in case you don't want to bring a separate detergent. +make your fabric smell nice.

Quick dry material is a must.

Oh.. I had been using shower gel but not hair shampoo to wash my laundry.
Gonna try hair shampoo.

Bring a small pack of detergent won't be too bulky either.
