Jerry, You might check out Bass Pro Shop. I've had the same problem of too much stuff and not enough stuff pockets. Haven't come up with a perfect stuff storage clothing. Remember, necessity is the mother of invention.

Thanks. I got a Columbia, but I didn't like the pockets, so that went back. I'm waiting for one from Cabelas.

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.

Go to a outdoor sporting goods store (REI, others) and they have outfits like you described, that also dry very quickly and easy to wash in your room. Two sets is all you will need, of outer wear, underwear and socks.
I have used them camping in a tent or hotel rooms. Make sure it is not cotton.

I prefer online, and I've ordered four so far. Two are going back and two are "on the way."

Maybe if I were more of a man, I wouldn't be afraid to carry one. :D

On the other hand, I don't even like carrying a wallet, so a few extra pockets will be fine for me.
