People that know me well know that I have a completely normal, sensible passion for cleanliness and hygiene. Suffice to say, the Outlier Doublebag was invented for people like me – meaning normal, sensible people.
In short, this genius invention not only compresses clothes so you can cram even more stuff into your tiny, normal, sensible carry-on bag, but it also has openings on both sides with an internal double-walled design that separates the clean clothes from the dirty clothes.
As you wear and funk up your clothes during your trip, the internal wall moves as the dirty clothes side fills up and the clean clothes side empties. Admittedly, the $48 price is a little daunting, but just look at that gorgeous, normal, sensible packing solution!
Pardon me, I think I have something in my eye.

For just a handful of $, those clear plastic space saver vacuum bags (I just roll the air out — no vacuum cleaner needed) let me pack 5 to 7 days worth of clothes into a tiny duffel bag that fits easily under the seat in front of me on the plane. Clean clothes in one, and I throw an empty bag in for the worn/dirty clothes. If I’m going to be gone longer than that, I figure I’ll probably want to do some laundry at some point anyway.
Oh Jeremy, there you go being resourceful again. But where’s the elegance in that?
