Compressible, odour-resistant and quick to dry. These are the pieces that let you leave for nine days with one bag and still be dressed properly on the last morning.
Pack for the trip you are taking, not the one you are imagining.
Almost everyone overpacks for the exception. We design instead for the seventy per cent: the same three combinations, worn repeatedly, washed rarely, and still presentable. Merino does most of the heavy lifting.
