 Packing isn't everyone's forte but we’ve found the cheat code – ask three regular travellers how they do it and what they take with them...

### The Luggage

I’ve owned my Tumi [backpack](https://uk.tumi.com/alpha-bravo-alpha-bravo-search-backpack--black/147053-1041.html) for at least seven years, and I use it daily. It’s simple, efficient, and still looks brand new. It’s rock solid. I can fit my laptop, my camera, notebooks, and everything I need for a two-day trip. I love a product that lasts.

### The Grooming Product

I’ve been using Keune [Spring Loaded](https://www.keune.com/uk/p/style-spring-loaded/) recently, and it’s so good. I just put a tiny bit in when my hair’s wet and let it dry. I style my hair forward, and it gives that extra volume.

### The Fragrance

[Guerlain](https://www.guerlain.com/uk/en-uk) is the brand I use for special occasions, but I’m going to keep the specific one I use secret. For daily, I’d say [Terre d'Hermès Parfum](https://www.hermes.com/uk/en/product/terre-d-hermes-parfum-V107757V0/) or [Narciso Rodriguez Him](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=2082&awinaffid=69421&platform=dl&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lookfantastic.com%2Fp%2Fnarciso-rodriguez-for-him-bleu-noir-eau-de-parfum-50ml%2F12127920%2F).

### The Shoes

These [Arpenteur x Paraboot shoes](https://www.arpenteur.fr/en/p1523-mirage-brown-paraboot) are stunning. I love Paraboot because they’re made not far from where I grew up, near Lyon. Now you find them everywhere, but I’ve been wearing since I was five.

### The Accessory

My [Zenith watch](https://www.chrono24.co.uk/zenith/el-primero-original-1969--id34774904.htm?searchHash=1516b377_yivaZE&pos=1) is a re-edition of a 1969 El Primero. I love brands that have a lot of history and make it in their own way. This was the first automatic chronograph movement. It has a racing aesthetic and at 38mm it’s the perfect size for my wrist.

### The Sunglasses

I’ve always loved [Oliver Peoples](https://www.oliverpeoples.com/uk/0OV5298SU--167752) because of *American Psycho* with Christian Bale. It’s the only brand he wears. I’m not a psycho, but I’ve always been a fan of the movie and the writer Bret Easton Ellis.

### The Travel Essential

The [Leica M4P camera](https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/317216346763). It’s the same as the M6, but without a light meter, so it’s fully manual – I like everything to be manual. The brand has history, it goes up in value, it’s resistant and reliable. It’s a beautiful camera.

### The Clothes

I love my De Bonne Facture [jumper](https://mrporter.prf.hn/click/camref:1100l4JRj/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mrporter.com%2Fen-gb%2Fmens%2Fproduct%2Fde-bonne-facture%2Fclothing%2Fcrew-necks%2Fwool-boucle-sweater%2F1647597340949418) in virgin wool. It’s from last season, it’s undyed, and it’s very natural and warm. Plus, I’ve got a few pairs of [Rototo socks](https://www.outsidersstore.com/products/everyday-pile-mini-crew-socks-873354-light-grey), and I love how strong and comfortable they are.

### The Technique 

I tend to pack last minute from a list I write on paper. I’ve learnt the actual packing from my wife Danielle. I lay all my underwear unfolded very flat at the bottom of the suitcase. Then I do a pile of t-shirts because I wear a lot of t-shirts. Then jumpers (which are my favourite piece of clothing), then trousers and toiletries. Then, crucially, I try to fit my shoes in the side. I always put the shoes in a bag.

### The Luggage

I have an all-black [Monos Hybrid](https://selfridges.prf.hn/click/camref:1100loTp9/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.selfridges.com%2FGB%2Fen%2Fproduct%2Fmonos-hybrid-carry-on-polycarbonate-suitcase_R04491889%2F), with different compartments, straps and a cover that allows you to adjust the tightness of each section. It also comes with shoe bags, so each shoe can be put in a bag by itself.

### The Grooming Product

I love my Byoma [mist spray](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=59805&awinaffid=69421&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.spacenk.com%2Fuk%2Fskincare%2Ftoner%2Fmists-sprays%2Fbalancing-face-mist-UK200038696.html). I use it every morning, or just when I’m about to hit somewhere.

### The Fragrance

[Byredo](https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=etT1jgERWYw&mid=47568&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.byredo.com%2Fuk_en) – I’m going to gatekeep the one l use, but the whole range is great.

### The Shoes

It’s Samsøe Samsøe [black loafers](https://www.samsoe.com/en-GB/product/safredde-loafers-15778-black). They're thick at the bottom, have a slight platform, and are wide and comfortable.

### The Accessory

I’m a silver jewellery guy. My favourite pieces are from Chrome Hearts, and often feature a [dagger](https://chromeworld.jp/product/double-dagger-pendant).

### The Sunglasses

If I’m in my vlogger mode, I’m going for the [Ray-Ban Meta](https://www.ray-ban.com/uk/ray-ban-meta-ai-glasses). If I'm after a swaggy-cool vibe, I go for Port Tanger’s Ghaib [amber lens](https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=etT1jgERWYw&mid=41610&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ssense.com%2Fen-gb%2Fwomen%2Fproduct%2Fport-tanger%2Fblack-ghaib-sunglasses%2F18251811).

### The Travel Essentials

Noise-cancelling [AirPods](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=1599&awinaffid=69421&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.currys.co.uk%2Fproducts%2Fapple-airpods-pro-2nd-generation-with-magsafe-charging-case-usbc-white-10255167.html), so you can’t hear anything on the plane; a [portable charger](https://amzn.to/47mmeWf); and a Drowsy [eye mask](https://amzn.to/4m5p6LH).

### The Clothes 

Everything I pack, I make sure it can all be worn together. At the very least that means one pair of jeans, one pair of trousers, a black t-shirt and a white t-shirt.

### The Technique

I’ve got a fitted hat bag, so my [caps](https://www.neweracap.co.uk/products/new-york-yankees-authentic-on-field-game-navy-59fifty-cap-12572841) don’t get crushed. I try to fold my denim jackets and suit jackets by the seam. And if not, I have a suit jacket bag. I also always bring a steamer.

### The Luggage

I recently had some custom [Globe-Trotter](https://www.globe-trotter.com/pages/custom-luggage) luggage made. I have a carry-on and a larger four-wheeler in dark blue with brown leather straps, with my own Garmsville logos on them. They’re serious pieces of luggage, but also kind of fun.

### The Grooming Product

The iconic [afro comb](https://amzn.to/48irieH). They come in all sorts of colours and are made of that slightly flexible plastic material. I always travel with one because it's so easy to carry on flights.

### The Fragrance

I tend to wear [Le Fleur](https://golflefleur.com/collections/french-waltz/products/french-waltz-100ml). I like the freshness, and it's great for day and night.

###  The Shoes

I’ve just launched a pair of [canvas deck shoes](https://www.goral-shoes.co.uk/products/garmsville-by-goral-deck-shoe) with UK shoemaker Goral, designed specifically from the perspective of someone who travels a lot. They can be worn with or without laces – perfect for the beach and airport security.

### The Accessory

The [Swatch x Omega Moonwatch](https://www.swatch.com/en-gb/bioceramic-moonswatch-collection/bioceramic-moonswatch.html) is the perfect holiday watch as it's light, fun and relatively inexpensive. I'm currently wearing the Mission to Mercury one. If you scratch the watch face at any time, pop into a Swatch store and they'll polish it for you on the spot.

### The Sunglasses

I got some clip-on sunnies made in an optician's in Paris – one of those super chic places that only real Parisians seem to frequent. I was lucky, I stumbled across it and spent a couple of hours there while they handcrafted and fitted detachable lenses to my glasses. They are a great alternative to prescription sunglasses, and I travel everywhere with them.

### The Travel Essential

These days, I take an [Alexa](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=1599&awinaffid=69421&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.currys.co.uk%2Fproducts%2Famazon-echo-dot-5th-gen-smart-speaker-with-alexa-charcoal-10244665.html) with me for listening to music or setting alarms.

### The Clothes

A [sweatshirt](https://www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/products/E475377-000/00?colorDisplayCode=19&sizeDisplayCode=004) is a layering item 101, and navy is the most adaptable colour. I can wear it in three or four different ways, depending on the environment and the weather. Plus, I always take a pack of three [plain white shirts](https://prf.hn/click/camref:1100l7A5q/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ralphlauren.co.uk%2Fen%2Fslim-crewneck-3-pack-630393.html%3F) with me – they always come in handy.

### The Technique

I try to pack with intention – I'll write lists days before to ensure I have everything I need. What I won't do is plan looks. I like to be spontaneous and dress according to my mood, even if I only have a handful of shirts to choose from. Inevitably, some looks are more successful than others. But, hey, we're all allowed to have the occasional off day, right?
