A problem that both leisure and business travellers face, is making sure that when packed suits and shirts arrive at their destination, they look sharp straight out of the bag, and don't need to head straight for the hotel's housekeeping for re-pressing!
Premium luggage company Briggs & Riley has a wide choice of Suit Carriers (or Garment Bags as they are known in the US) which will ensure that your suits, shirts and dresses will arrive looking as sharp as when they were packed. Here are just three ideas all of which come with Briggs & Riley's unique lifetime warranty that also covers airline damage.
For a one or two night break when smart clothes are required, the Classic Garment Cover is the answer. The exterior is made of durable ballistic nylon which will weather the toughest travel conditions. There are two large pockets for other clothing items, a cinch buckle to keep hangers in place, and a top handle or shoulder strap for carrying. The black bag measures 57.2 x 62.2 x 5.1 cm and retails for £159.
The Carry-on Wheeled Garment Bag conveniently carries hanging suits, shirts and dresses in a protected structured case but because it is so compact in size, it conforms to most UK airlines' carry-on rules, saving both time and money. It is made of a tough, durable, ballistic nylon.
The bag features a door panel with two mesh pockets for undergarments, a zippered shoe pocket and a tie/scarf pocket. A foam-centred garment panels gently blanket clothes to minimise wrinkling, and the main section features a Wally clamp to securely hang 2-3 suits. Velcro mesh corner pockets are ideal for belts and odd-shaped items. Measuring 38.1 x 53.3 x 22.9 cm, the bag is available in black and olive and retails for £459.
The Deluxe Wheeled Garment Bag is made of a tough nylon outer fabric to resist wear, moisture, dirt and abrasion, and features multiple compartments for all types of items. The bag has plenty of pockets for keeping clothes separate and the main section can store 4-6 suits. There are two back pockets, one with a section for folded shirts, and the other features a snap-in removable waterproof pocket.
A large exterior pocket is ideal for casual clothes or shoes and there are two bag hooks allowing the bag to be hung in a wardrobe or on a door. The bag has aircraft-grade aluminum handle system with 3 stop heights with 'V-groove' strong, handle tubes to prevent jamming. Measuring 52.1 x 55.9 x 29.2 cm and available in black or olive the bag retails for £539.
