I’m personally a personal item one bagger. Most vacation trips only last a week and even if they go over a week all you have to do is laundry. So long as you remember to pack a hair brush, toothbrush and paste, deodorant, lotion and sunscreen, body wash and shampoo (if in an ABNB), charging cables, earbuds or headphones, and follow the 5 4 3 2 1 rule (5 socks and underwear, 4 tops, 3 bottoms, 2 shoes (one of which you’ll wear), and 1 hat) you’re good to go. That all fits in a 18x14x8 bag which is the standard personal item size. Especially if you pack one pair of pants and two shorts which double as swim trunks since it’s the summer and/or wear a versatile pair of shoes on the plane and have adventure sandals in your bag. Wear your bulky shoes, pants, and a rain jacket on the plane with accessories in the rain jacket pockets like sunglasses and you’ll be good to go in every season other than the winter in which you swap all shorts in your bag for pants and your rain jacket for a winter jacket (preferably a packable puffer). I also wear a waterproof hip pack for valuables with nothing in it at first that nobody ever counts as “an item” which I use as a day bag while my main bag stays at wherever I’m staying. Waterproof because sometimes I take solo trips to places with beaches and don’t want to leave stuff on a beach unattended.
During my teenage years I got into the fashion community because I wanted to dress better. I used to follow all the influencers you can imagine. But as time went by and I got older and wiser I stopped watching most of them. But I’ve always loved the Modest man. Being a modest man myself I always appreciated these videos and I hope you carry on doing what you are doing Brock.
This month, I just bought a Karl Friedrich Hybrid Carry On in Black and have been trying to decide between Karl Friedrich Hybrid Check In or Trunk to buy next month. I am a woman engineer and believe this is a classic quality worth the investment price. I am watching your packing style 😊
Umm, perhaps you are jokong? A steamer will cost about $50 and up plus you will need a voltage converter if traveling to countries with different voltages. Additional space and weight for those flying with size and weight weight limits. And of course the added time now to get out the wrinkles if that is of any concern and if not, why bother with the steamer (or even cubes)? Imo the time spent folding properly like this video shows ultimatly saves time and money.
@@oldgoldtopgoldtop6039 if you’re travelling abroad you already have a converter, and if 50 bucks is too much for you I’m not sure how you have money to travel.
My main things are: Ninja Folds and Rolls, and Packing Cubes for a Carry on & a Cross-body bag containing my Charles Doppelt kit, personal gear and EDCs, including 1 shirt, 1 underwear, 1 sock.
Great tips! 'm also using packing cubes before to separate my personal things from others until I bought this bento bag from Nomad Lane. This bag packs like a suitcase and it has compartments on the outside and easy-access pockets and it fits under the seat! So I can get anything I want easily.
You could make video How to Pack for 4 to 7 Day Trip (business trip) with every detail, what to pack. How to pack. To show combinations for: travel. Work 1st day, evening combination 1st day and etc… Video for summer period and winter period.
Great tips regarding packing. I will try this stuff. I like the idea of that laptop compartment, but I would NEVER use it. Polycarbonate flexes, and one solid impact will destroy your electronics. More so if you have pens/chargers/AirPods upfront to smash backwards into the laptop. Just imho. The rest was excellent input.
One thing that bothers me about this carry-on bag is that the zipper where you keep your most valuable items (Aka your laptop and other electronics) has no lock or protection, meaning that if anyone steals it they can get easily take your most valuable items while the main compartment has double locks which seem like overkill.
If someone steals your carryon I don't think a lock on a zipper is going to stop them from opening a compartment to get valuables. (Either picking or just destroying the bag)
@@PhantomfireWasHere yeah and you also should have your carry on with you for the entire trip, I was worried about that too at first but remembered that my family and I will be the only ones touching it save the tsa people
I pack pretty much exactly likely that these days. I fidgeted with my packing technique endlessly for many years. Like I’d pack and repack multiple times before a trip in search of some perfect execution. I miss those days. Haven’t been on a plane in a while. My technique lately for outerwear is to just lay it in the bag on its back putting the collar up to the edge, and the just fold it to the full shape/size of the bag.
For this length of trip I would usually recommend to just have a backpack as you have less chance of getting your bag gate checked. If you still want to have a roller to not have to shoulder a backpack all the time, I would suggest you pack a slim daypack that can house your electronics in the case you have to gate check for full flights or planes with small overhead compartments. (Low likelihood for a frequent flyer I know, but better to have that option rather than to carry everything by hand).
To remove wrinkles I hang my close in the bathroom with the show running (hot water only) and steam them, after 10 - 20 min I move them to the closet to dry and no more wrinkles
Well...this sure helped! I laid out everything I would need for a four day trip. It’s less than your loadout but I couldn’t seem to get it all in. So happy I could your vid. Thanx.
Thanks so much Brock. Love that Carl Friedrik carry on bag and thanks for the 15% offer. I have taken this up and look forward to receiving the bag ready for travel!
My dude here basically made an ad for a $550 cabin bag 🤣 Thanks for the consumer advice.... I'll remember to pack my Dom Perignon when I place this bag into my Lambo
Nice tips. I usually would need some gym wear and a pair of shorts and t for pjs and flip flops. The one thing I am curious is did the blazer go with the shirts and pants? I didn't see a white shirt.
Loved the video. Got a few tips that I will use in future trips so thank you for posting. I recently bought a bag similar to the one you use (LEVEL8 Grace EXT 20") as my only travel bag after doing biz travel for over 20 years. It is not as nice as yours but it has similar features, an expansion section in the middle and it costs 1/3 of the CF. A few comments/tips that you may want to consider for a future video: 1 - A lot of your packing will depend on the industry you are in and where you are going. I travel throughout the Americas mainly Central America and the Caribbean so cold weather clothes don't really apply to me. I don't have to wear a suit/tie but I do need to wear a sports jacket. I also like to pack a pair of flip flops as i don't like to walk barefooted and a dirty clothes bag. 2 - Consider using compression packing cubes (there are tons of different brands) but they are a game changer as they allow you to maximize the space in your carry on bag 3 - You need to consider workout clothes if you like to exercise (I do because I have to monitor my weight). If you are going to have more than 1 workout during your trip you will need to pack 2 workout outfits ( each including shirt, shorts with liner, and socks). Why 2? Some hotel windows are sealed shut and no outside air comes in. If you only take 1 outfit it will not likely dry out after washing within 24 hours unless you use a hair dryer which is teeeeedious... 4 - Get a 3-1-1 bag for liquids specially if you travel to/within the US and place in your carry-on bag where it is easy to take out for airport security to see. 5 - The section of the bag where the handle bar mechanism is has spaces that can be leveled off/maximized by placing belts, socks, and small items. Take advantage of this unused space.! 6 - Bring a backpack. You will need it for stuff that you want next to you during your flight (passport, pens, biz cards, food items, medicine, gifts you may be bringing or taking back, water bottle etc), and take it to client meetings as you don't want to bring suitcase for those. I place the backpack under my calfs so I can fully extend my legs while sitting. I like to look sharp when I walk into a customer's office so I carry a multi-voltage travel steamer because I don't like wrinkles and I don't do ironing. Happy traveling.
I like this, but I find myself preferring soft carry-ons instead of hardcover ones. I would often take train rides back to my parents' in the past, and people's plastic carry-ons would bang like crazy in the collective luggage section. It can also be quite audible in a car boot, if you have other items with it. Finally, they're just heavier than one made from fabric. While the fabric will tear I would still prefer a fabric carry on myself. PS: I know you are reading these comments :) I noticed you have a new watch on which I don't think you've showed before. Time for a 2022 collection video? We're still waiting on that Orient 36mm review you promised us!
I get the 'folding' scenarios, and I also think it was a good , informative video. But I believe at the end of the day, the suitcase will always have the same 'total' capacity irrelevant to how something is folded (just like a bottle built to hold 1ltr of water, will not hold 1.5 ltrs). I do think more suitcase manufacturers should design the 'external' compartment that is shown in this video. I remember many years ago purchasing a three suite of suitcases (S-M- and a Large) for a weeks vacation. My ex- partner always used a carry-on and there was me with the 'Large' check-in. I have now learnt to accommodate my weeks vacation into a carry on with the addition of a backpack for any extras. It is so much better and quicker going through the airport and also transportin either end. So hopefully, I will be investing in a nice premium suitcase has a treat, that will be my go-to, seeing carry-on is know my way of travelling.
Each year I go to Japan (except for the last 2 years coz of covid). Each time I go to Japan I bring a tiny suitcase for a few clothes and necessities, and a bigger suitcase with nothing inside. By the end of my trip that big suitcase is almost bursting with all things I buy. Damn, I miss traveling.
Looks great, lotsa stuff, exceptionally packed however useless for carry-on for most airlines these days… 7 kgs limit for carry-on unless you fly first class.
Interesting video. I regularly pack a small 2 wheel roller underseater (regular carry on dimensions are too big for me) and backpack, both of which have been more than enough for my 2-3 month trips to Asia. Keep up the great work!
@@alfonsohshk8998 😅. The roller underseater is for clothing, 1 pair of sandals, washbag & meds. I just pack enough clothing for 6 days (important all items can be mixed / matched). On day 6, I take the previous 5 days of clothes to the local laundry for a service wash and iron. The backpack is for tech gear, thin raincoat etc. 🙂😎Safe Travels!🛫
@@sshah2545 The roller underseater is for clothing, 1 pair of sandals, washbag & meds. I just pack enough clothing for 6 days (important all items can be mixed / matched).

The thing is most airlines only allow a total of 7kg to bring for carry-on luggage and 1 small bag. I think your luggage is like already 3kg so we are left with 5kg
Where I always fall down when just taking a carryon is having to have workout gear. Even if one goes away for just a week, one has to assume that one'll want to work out like 2 times - so that's 2 x shorts, 2 x workout t-shirts, 2 x workout socks, and (crucially) workout trainers/sneakers, as well as a sturdy waterproof bag to put the sweaty gear into. I (sometimes) even do skip the sneakers, because some people do weight lifting in their socks to improve balance - but then this limits me only to strength training, and I can't do cardio. Basically, this extra stuff tips the balance, and it becomes hard to get away with a carry on for a week trip... I manage, but only by washing stuff, which is annoying.
I have the same issue. I travel in my exercise sneakers and just pack dress shoes for my meetings. You won't be able to travel with just a carry-on if you travel with more than 2 pairs of shoes. I recently bought compression packing cubes that help maximize space and came with a dirty clothes bag.
If one is a frequent traveller then definitely a more expensive, high quality bag is necessary. However, I've always chosen inexpensive bags (usually purchased at discount stores) and, as an occasional traveller, they have lasted many years...
I had a handle fail on me. Bought a new one off eBay but then couldn’t screw it on properly, so it kept coming off! I eventually managed to attach it so that it didn’t keep failing but I would rather not have had to do DIY! Also, one of the bits that attaches to the main body of the case is black and the other one (original one) is silver so it looks a bit odd. I do love 360 wheels.
Haha last few years I’ve had the Amex Gold Skymiles for business use. Might switch it up now that I’m flying less, but Delta keeps extending status because of Covid 🤷🏻♂️
For me the big threshold for packing is whether I'll be staying overnight or not. Beyond that there isn't much difference for me. I pack exactly the same for 1 week or 2 months in Europe (I know it would be different in more "exotic" locales). I got to that point partially by experience and partially from schooling by Rick Steves :-) He says pack as little as you think you can possibly live with and then take only half of it. And in my experinece _even then_ there will be several (3 on average for me) items that I _never_ end up using/wearing. Bottom line is people overpack HUGELY for vacations. BTW, few years ago many international airlines have slightly reduced the carry-on luggage size. So if your carry-on bag is older, you may find yourself at the airport with a perfectly non-carry-on bag, to be checked in at a cool $100 extra or something of that sort. Mine is 20" x 14" x 7" and it sometimes would fit the carryon limit box at the check-in counter _just barely._
I am a big fan of Rick Steves too. I will have to go back and look at some of his travel vids. I am not one to spend a lot of money on accommodations. I know that you get an iron in your room but does every small hotel have laundry services? I am not confident that I can wash out clothes I went hiking in in the sink.
@@MichaelJohnson-vi6eh I never washed in the sink. I just set aside a certain amount for laundry facilities and pretend this was a part of the airline ticket price. In Switzerland it can be a pretty penny: 9 CHF for a load at a "Waschsalon" in Lauterbrunnen. The dryer is extra 🙂So I usually pack 6 underwear changes (+1 on me) which gives me about a week to figure it out.
My only gripe with this bag is it’s considered a check-in bag, too big for carry on. It doesn’t fit in the basket where they measure if it’s ok for cabin.
My problem with packing in only carry on is that I also will be working out as well as filming during any trip. This adds workout clothes as well as csmera eqiupment. Also, From my experience, the more you fold things, the more air and space you are bringing into the packing. Wrinkles arent a problem, you can find irons in most places. Will check out the tip about the carry on brand though! /star alliance gold member

My question to you is: do you also pack a duffle bag, or backpack? Like to carry your credit card, phone, pillow, cash, razors, candy, potatoes chips, soda, toothbrush, brochures, papers, etc If so I would like to see a tutorial on this matter.
Hi Brock, how heavy is the suit case after you put everything in? The suit case itself is over 4.2 kg. Here in Australia, if your carry on is over 7kg even by a few gram, either pay through your nose or leave a kidney behide. They do watch you like a hawk at the gate especially Jetstar.
Tip 1, dont take a spinner, you lose a lot of space. I've never found any benefit to a spinner. TIp 2, Shirt garment folder. Tip 3, Packing cubes. Tip 4, Trouses in first but don't fold, you drape them in, put packing cubes in then fold remaining length on trousers over the packing cube like a little parcel. Tip 5, you don't need a carry on bag that size for just a 1 week trip, Ive used a bag that size for a 3 week work trip coving all seasons, starting with snow at starting location and finishing with sun and a day of sunbaving for the last couple of days.
I’m personally a personal item one bagger. Most vacation trips only last a week and even if they go over a week all you have to do is laundry. So long as you remember to pack a hair brush, toothbrush and paste, deodorant, lotion and sunscreen, body wash and shampoo (if in an ABNB), charging cables, earbuds or headphones, and follow the 5 4 3 2 1 rule (5 socks and underwear, 4 tops, 3 bottoms, 2 shoes (one of which you’ll wear), and 1 hat) you’re good to go. That all fits in a 18x14x8 bag which is the standard personal item size. Especially if you pack one pair of pants and two shorts which double as swim trunks since it’s the summer and/or wear a versatile pair of shoes on the plane and have adventure sandals in your bag.
Wear your bulky shoes, pants, and a rain jacket on the plane with accessories in the rain jacket pockets like sunglasses and you’ll be good to go in every season other than the winter in which you swap all shorts in your bag for pants and your rain jacket for a winter jacket (preferably a packable puffer).
I also wear a waterproof hip pack for valuables with nothing in it at first that nobody ever counts as “an item” which I use as a day bag while my main bag stays at wherever I’m staying. Waterproof because sometimes I take solo trips to places with beaches and don’t want to leave stuff on a beach unattended.

Packing cubes make life so much easier to pack. Just bring a travel steamer and you're done.
any recommendations on a travel steamer?
@@khanleoun hang clothes in the bathroom, turn on the hot shower and close the door.
Just bought this and works well for a trip.

Our favorite blogger and vlogger. Thanks Brock.
Thank you for watching 🙏
Very practical! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I would add a small steam vertical iron or a spray and a hangee to remove wrinkles! Cheers!
In Europe there’s a max weight. Unless your items are too light, there’s no way you could pack all of that under that weight.
Beautiful case but it weighs a whopping 4.3kg! With carry-on limit for most at 10kg and some as low as 7kg its a bit pointless as a carry-on tbh.

So weird that this got recommended to me hours before packing for a carry on only trip. Thank you modest man and thank you algorithm
They really got this algorithm dialed in to a scary point 😂
Brilliant advice. Appreciated folding method for blazer and jacket.
Great tips regarding packing. I will try this stuff.
I like the idea of that laptop compartment, but I would NEVER use it. Polycarbonate flexes, and one solid impact will destroy your electronics.

u know ppl can cut locks open right? lol
it aint that hard
A zip can be opened by inserting a pencil into the teeth. A lock isn't going to stop anything other than a pick pocket.
Why you put your electronic device and valuable item in suitcase? I prefer bring a convenient backpack, so my valuable item could fit in cabin baggage

Awesome. I tend to fold everything as small as possible. Most of my destinations have ironing usage so wohooo 🎉
It isn’t compatible with any airline to carry on board. At least not in Europe nor in International flights from Europe and back.
Great delivery and straight to the point.

Great video, and perfect timing since I’m shopping for new luggage! I’ll definitely check these out. What brand is your leather jacket?
Thank you for the knowledge, followed your format and for the first time ever I'm able to travel with carry on only. Big change for me.
I spend a lot of time on the road and have assembled a 'capsule wardrobe' not unlike what you packed in today's video.
Looks great, lotsa stuff, exceptionally packed however useless for carry-on for most airlines these days… 7 kgs limit for carry-on unless you fly first class.
Great video! The luggage looks next level too, I'm looking forward to when I can invest in that kind of product without a second thought.

Most European airlines won't accept that bag as a carry-on as it's too heavy. I tried and unfortunately had to return it.
Right on time! I'm going on a trip in two days and this advice is gonna help a lot
I like that you include the watch you’re wearing in the “shop the video” links

Where I always fall down when just taking a carryon is having to have workout gear. Even if one goes away for just a week, one has to assume that one'll want to work out like 2 times - so that's 2 x shorts, 2 x workout t-shirts, 2 x workout socks, and (crucially) workout trainers/sneakers, as well as a sturdy waterproof bag to put the sweaty gear into. I (sometimes) even do skip the sneakers, because some people do weight lifting in their socks to improve balance - but then this limits me only to strength training, and I can't do cardio. Basically, this extra stuff tips the balance, and it becomes hard to get away with a carry on for a week trip... I manage, but only by washing stuff, which is annoying.
I have the same issue. I travel in my exercise sneakers and just pack dress shoes for my meetings. You won't be able to travel with just a carry-on if you travel with more than 2 pairs of shoes. I recently bought compression packing cubes that help maximize space and came with a dirty clothes bag.
Really nice folding. Marie Kondo would be proud! ;)

It seems like newer versions of the bag ditched this feature for some reason
If one is a frequent traveller then definitely a more expensive, high quality bag is necessary. However, I've always chosen inexpensive bags (usually purchased at discount stores) and, as an occasional traveller, they have lasted many years...
My idea of dressy is socks and shoes
Thank you for this video. Very helpful.
This is great, I was wondering if I could do carry on for our cruise this summer
I pack a few plastic garbage bags to put dirty laundry in so they don't mix with the clean stuff if you are moving from hotel to hotel.
I had a handle fail on me. Bought a new one off eBay but then couldn’t screw it on properly, so it kept coming off! I eventually managed to attach it so that it didn’t keep failing but I would rather not have had to do DIY! Also, one of the bits that attaches to the main body of the case is black and the other one (original one) is silver so it looks a bit odd. I do love 360 wheels.
7:27 the bulky charger and airpod is pressing against the MacBook screen, I would advise just put them to the side.
Good video, Brock! The real question is, what watch will you be wearing? 😉
Lately it’s been the Seiko Presage “ladies” Cocktail Time - theslenderwrist.com/seiko-presage-srp837j1-review/
Very useful video. Thanks
Very informative Brock.
Will you make a youtube channel for Slender wrist?
Cheers buddy
Possibly in the future!
My bag was featured in the movie lone survivor lol
Thanks
The Medallion flex cracked me up… which delta credit card do you use?
Haha last few years I’ve had the Amex Gold Skymiles for business use. Might switch it up now that I’m flying less, but Delta keeps extending status because of Covid 🤷🏻♂️
For me the big threshold for packing is whether I'll be staying overnight or not. Beyond that there isn't much difference for me. I pack exactly the same for 1 week or 2 months in Europe (I know it would be different in more "exotic" locales). I got to that point partially by experience and partially from schooling by Rick Steves :-) He says pack as little as you think you can possibly live with and then take only half of it. And in my experinece _even then_ there will be several (3 on average for me) items that I _never_ end up using/wearing. Bottom line is people overpack HUGELY for vacations. BTW, few years ago many international airlines have slightly reduced the carry-on luggage size. So if your carry-on bag is older, you may find yourself at the airport with a perfectly non-carry-on bag, to be checked in at a cool $100 extra or something of that sort. Mine is 20" x 14" x 7" and it sometimes would fit the carryon limit box at the check-in counter _just barely._
I am a big fan of Rick Steves too. I will have to go back and look at some of his travel vids. I am not one to spend a lot of money on accommodations. I know that you get an iron in your room but does every small hotel have laundry services? I am not confident that I can wash out clothes I went hiking in in the sink.
@@MichaelJohnson-vi6eh I never washed in the sink. I just set aside a certain amount for laundry facilities and pretend this was a part of the airline ticket price. In Switzerland it can be a pretty penny: 9 CHF for a load at a "Waschsalon" in Lauterbrunnen. The dryer is extra 🙂So I usually pack 6 underwear changes (+1 on me) which gives me about a week to figure it out.
Thanks.
Helped me a lot. Thank you🤝🏻
Glad it was helpful!
My only gripe with this bag is it’s considered a check-in bag, too big for carry on. It doesn’t fit in the basket where they measure if it’s ok for cabin.
That is a very good video. Thanks!
That carry-on is beautiful but quite expensive! Great video Brock!
My problem with packing in only carry on is that I also will be working out as well as filming during any trip. This adds workout clothes as well as csmera eqiupment. Also, From my experience, the more you fold things, the more air and space you are bringing into the packing. Wrinkles arent a problem, you can find irons in most places. Will check out the tip about the carry on brand though! /star alliance gold member

My question to you is: do you also pack a duffle bag, or backpack? Like to carry your credit card, phone, pillow, cash, razors, candy, potatoes chips, soda, toothbrush, brochures, papers, etc If so I would like to see a tutorial on this matter.
Hi Brock, how heavy is the suit case after you put everything in? The suit case itself is over 4.2 kg. Here in Australia, if your carry on is over 7kg even by a few gram, either pay through your nose or leave a kidney behide. They do watch you like a hawk at the gate especially Jetstar.
I’m not sure but even with larger bags/more stuff I’ve never been over the U.S. limit (which is higher than Aus). I’d guess around 25 lbs packed.
With you on that one Kenny
I scrolled the comments just for this answer (fellow Aussie!!).
Very helpful. Thanks 🙏🏾
I noticed the button up shirt had “A Modest Man” tag on it. Product drop in the near future?
It’s from an old limited release (no immediate plans to do it again).
Appreciate the video! Great tips!
Great Tips!
awesome video!! 🤩
is the carry on, the one that you take on the plane?
Ted Mosby vibes in the beginning
Great bag! I’d there a lock for your laptop pocket?
Fall is the more “realistic” season 😆
Those Carl Fredrick slappers love to advertise
What about a shaving kit??
Thanks for this Brock. As far as questions, any recommendations for less expensive luggage?
TravelPro makes great bags. Super lightweight and durable. It’s what many flight attendants use.
Hi @Brock! Thank you for this and all your videos. Very interesting! Could you please tell me the travel toiletry brand? 😊
How would you recommend separating sweaty/dirty clothes from the clean pile
Damn bro, Delta SILVER!?😂😂
Sorry to brag 😂
What about the active clothing and shoes? To be also able to go to the gym during those travel days …
Tip 1, dont take a spinner, you lose a lot of space. I've never found any benefit to a spinner.
TIp 2, Shirt garment folder.
Tip 3, Packing cubes.
Tip 4, Trouses in first but don't fold, you drape them in, put packing cubes in then fold remaining length on trousers over the packing cube like a little parcel.
Tip 5, you don't need a carry on bag that size for just a 1 week trip, Ive used a bag that size for a 3 week work trip coving all seasons, starting with snow at starting location and finishing with sun and a day of sunbaving for the last couple of days.
