I'm not sure if you've featured it before but I highly recommend the Sea to Summit Shopping bag! Packs down into a tiny pouch that can even go on a keyring!
Nano microbags are always in our gear load...we use them for when we go shopping at a destination - they are also good for sitting on if conditions are damp or carrying our daypacks if we are in a museum that does not allow you to wear something on your back
Have the toiletries body & face scrubber and love it. Use it for both home and when traveling. I'd skip the JBL Go 3, pony up the extra $10USD, and buy the Tribit Stormbox Micro 2. It's a much better speaker for barely any more money.
Oh, the cap at 6:36 looks nice! Can you tell me what that is? I've decided it's time to get a few caps because sunglasses have never really worked for me, and I'm having a hard time picking something, so any advice there would be good. Been looking into Lululemon and Arc'teryx because of their great materials, but can't decide on anything.
I discovered a new brand today while browsing an outdoorsy shop. I don't know if you've ever mentioned them since I only recently became a subscriber. They're called Fairfax California, and the product I was eyeing is called "WORKINE PORTABLE TRAY"
I am a globetotter and hard pass on all of that stuff. For a rucksack you need bigger much sturdier one with a frame. Rest is novelty crap. Maybe useful for small outing, but not serious travel. For washing you have hands, work well and no unnecessary crap to carry.
Thanks for the nice collection and wow I really loved that combination of voice and video at /:06 when you talked about a trip to the beach or a day at the pool and the video showed somebody packed into gloves and a thick jacket - that remembers me so much of my North Sea beach trips in the Netherlands 🤣 That silicone scrub thing looks great - I have a very similar thing for scrubbing vessels and cleaning my pans but never got the idea to use it on my skin (usually I don't have anything burned in and sticking there). Maybe I should give it a try ...
@@PackHacker Hi Eric and yes tried to use my silicone pan scrubber thing already for getting my hands clean ... it kinda worked but in a sense that my hands became somehow cleaner but some of the residues from repairing my motorcycle were then on that scrub pad, and I had to clean it with a brush. Wouldn't really recommend it for this specific use after this experience. (But to say how I usually do it: I use tooth powder for extreme cases, that's good for almost everything, also e.g. cleaning dirty pans and vessels. And weights much less than tooth paste, that's also why I always carry tooth powder instead of tooth paste on travels - multi purpose, low weight.) Didn't try that pan scrubby for having bath, maybe it works better for that purpose... but freely said, I'm very old school and usually I use just soap and water and my hands and never scrub myself with any extra items whiles in the shower ... ;-) Best regards, Robert
The scrubbers are a OEM product that can be picked up at 1/4 the price from LuckyCat Collective

Thanks for the suggestion 😃 I’ll pass it along!

Their Nano line is really useful

That travel scrubber is actually quite genius. I always use hotel wash rags, but this would be much better!
We think so, too 😃
-Eric
Oh yah, americans use a washcloth when they are in the shower, instead of a Luffa or just their hands. that silicone thing is kinda cool tho.
I always pack a lunatec wash cloth. Dries in no time, light weight, packs small & exfoliating! Give it a try
Thanks for the suggestion 😃 I’ll pass it along!

I truly enjoy all your videos! Thanks to you and the Pack Hacker Team!
Thanks for the support 😃

How does the scrubber work with bar soaps? I like the looks of this!
Thanks for the suggestion on the speaker 😃 I’ll pass it along!

@@ARM317 Not well. You will have to constantly relather it. It works much better with liquid soaps.
@@ARM317 If I'm using a bar so I just use the soap as is, and then take the body scrubber and scrub off dead skin.
@@Andorski thanks for the feedback!

For anyone looking for a speaker with the JBL form factor, I would jump to the Sanag Bluetooth speaker. More features for a better price.
Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll pass it along 😃

The scrub is a great idea!
Thanks for watching 😃
-Eric
Another great list 😊😊
I use my JBL pro 3 even as a main speaker since I move a lot and wouldn't invest in a serious speaker.
Thanks for sharing 😃 It gets the job done!

Oh what about that jacket Christine is wearing?! So cute!
Need to know more about Eric's NB pants.
Have Tooletries products myself, great for traveling!

A "pocket blanket" can be made of a piece of tyvek for free.

Sling bags are just way too man pursey for me. I mean... that's literally what it is. I'll stick with my backpack. :)
Can you solve an argument between my boyfriend and me? What color is the hydroflask at 4:00? Is it yellow or orange?
Lol I have to jump in here because it's clearly yellow!
Yellow!
