Carrying Stuff While Traveling
Sep 16, 2013 07:49:08 #
I like to travel with a minimum of luggage, but I like to have things handy, so I look for "travel clothing." I have two shirts and two pairs of pants from Travel Smith. They have lots of pockets, some hidden and some with zippers. As good as they are, they're not perfect, so I'm looking for something better.
Here's my ideal shirt:
No-wrinkle
Chest pocket on either side
Zippered chest pocket behind each regular pocket
Pocket on left sleeve
Hidden zippered pockets on either side of center.
One of my Travel Smith shirts has many of those features, but not all, and they no longer sell it.
Have any of you found shirts or pants with lots of pockets, some zippered or hidden? No-iron would be nice, too. I have a couple of vests, but they're vests, and I would like a regular shirt.

I agree with what you like. I buy shirts from Colombia and Reel legends which have SPF 25 protection and are made of quick drying nylon and are loaded with pockets. I get them at Beals dept store here in FL, but you can probably find them online.

This is no joke, but with my ScotteVest, I carry the map of the vest. I think there are 24 pretty well concealed pockets. I realized that the trick to having "travel clothing," is buying several colors of the same item. I was switching between two multi-pocket shirts, and I kept forgetting where things were. If I always wore the same style shirt, that wouldn't be a problem.
