Neater way to bring clothes in.
 

Get some jumbo zip lock bags, fold your button down shirt with a folded up t-shirt or foam pad inside to get rid of the sharp creases. Then right before you leave, push the air out, close it, and go.

Great idea. It also keeps them clean.

Sounds close to what I do. I fold my pants, then fold my shirt around them. I slide the whole deal into my drybag, on the tops of my shoes (with my socks and belt inside) with the soles facing toward the backpanel of my backpack. Purge the air and seal the bag, and I'm ready to roll.

Where do you get these jumbo zip lock bags? I've been looking for something large - say laptop large.

WWW.ZIPLOC.COM

They have the big bags there.

I use the Downy wrinkle relaxer. My clothes are always super wrinkled, but look straight from the dry cleaner after I use it. I just keep it at the office.

I do like the folding around a foam insert though...that's brilliant

Always try to roll instead of fold. Also,you could always keep one of those travel steamers at work.

I fold the shirt, pants, etc. over one another and stuff em in a grocery bag. I also keep spare shoes at the desk.

Then again, my office has a ridiculously loose dress code, so I don't really have to worry about this. I'd look better off than the fat dude in sandals, a tank top and sweatshorts, regardless.

This morning I totally crumpled my silk short-sleeve shirt into a ball w/ my shorts and underwear, jammed it into the pannier and piled on apples and other watchamahoozits. It's just a different kind of setting here, what can I say.

I use the plastic bags they give out on trade show floors at conventions.

The Ziploc-bag vacuum! Brilliant.
I've actually just this week devised a way to keep the dress shirt relatively unwrinkled: lay it down face-up to fold it; place a plastic deli bag over the chest; fold inwards. (This is the opposite of what they do at the gap, so the buttons are hidden by the sleeves. But if there are wrinkles, they're not on the chest.)

I use this bag.

It's not the cheapest, but it does it's job well (although I wish it were a little longer for my shirts.) I hate ironing, so I just use two sets of shirts. I keep one set at work while the other is at the laundry mat getting cleaned and ironed. When I bring one load there, I pick up the other. It's right on the way to work and works great.

PS I also use the following item:

for the more casual days. It works great as well.

I am so spoiled. We have a gym at work, so I have shower AND a steam room. I personally have no reason to use steam room, but it works great to take wrinkles out of my clothes. :D

A stiff, glossy magazine is also a good tool to fold your shirt around.

Here is a compression bag for you. $12 at REI.

Eagle Creek Pack-It Compressor - large

Don't ban me from the forum, but I heard Wal Mart has the new LARGE ziploc bags like you see in the new commercials.

that's what I do, except I just use the gallon freezer bag, I have to fold over the collar, but that's it.

or get a job that allows you to work naked
porn anyone? :D

Funny that this thread is back up top. I just tossed my Ziploc Big bag. It works great when it's raining, but it's just too big for shirt, pants, underwear. But I like that compression bag that Trek930 links to. Comes in a good size, and it seems to be waterproof. Any experience with that? Do you think that it helps prevent wrinkles?

I use one of these Eagle Creek "Pack-it" Folders. I fold up my work attire (dress pants, undershirt, dress shirt, clean undies and socks)... and slide it into the laptop sleeve in my backpack.
