Master the Short Trip

Packing for a brief getaway requires gear that balances internal volume with external portability. Standard luggage is often too bulky for a two day itinerary; these duffels solve that by providing enough room for essentials without the weight of a traditional suitcase. The Luhxe Travel Bag 2.0 ($129) is the primary solution for high-efficiency packing. It allows you to move from the airport to the boardroom without pausing at baggage claim.

Proper organization is the key to maintaining a polished look upon arrival.
