If you are a consultant, travel is a huge part of life, from the point challenges to the specific order you unload your pockets in the security line, to the way you pack. Traditional carry-ons, while easy to roll around, tend to wrinkle the crap out of your shirts and suits. That’s where a garment bag like this one from Hook and Albert comes in. This Garment Weekender unzips completely, allowing you to lay two suits and a couple of shirts flat, reducing wrinkles, and store a pair of shoes in the sides. The bag then zips back up into a weekender duffle shape, providing more room for your other items like underwear, socks, ties, etc. Plus, this weekender has easy access pockets on the outside for your electronics, and fits nicely into an overhead, so you don’t have to check it (God forbid). The leather construction keeps everything dry, and elevates the look. So if you’re tired of running a hot shower for 4 hours when you get to your hotel, only to have to iron anyway, a change in your luggage could do the trick.

It's wedding season, which means a lot of traveling 3-5 hours in a car or plane with one bag for your casual clothes and another hanging bag for your suit and dress shirt options. Why not consolidate the two? The ZAM weekender by Matt and Nat unzips completely, to reveal a large hanging clothes pocket for those items you don't want to hard crease, and zips back up to create a standard weekender compartment for your shoes, casual clothes, and other travel accessories. Reduce the number of bag you need, by taking one that does it all, and looks good doing it.

J.Crew Abington Weekender Bag

When looking for a weekender, we usually prefer canvas, its versetile, strong, flexible, and if you end up putting it down in a puddle by accident you can toss it in the wash. This weekender is owned by two of us here at WhatIsAGentleman, and we like it, a lot. and at a price point under $300 its pretty much a steal.

Available on Jcrew.com for $198
