Made living out of a suitcase a breeze
By Bradley Miller
I have just returned from a 3 week tour of Germany, Switzerland, Italy, London, and New York City. One suitcase, with two Eagle Creek Pack-it folder 15's and one 20. The 20 was great for pants, and some nice Kuhl wool sweaters for layering. Dress shirts and crew necks went in one of the 15's and base layers went in another. Total bag weight was just 35 pounds. Socks and underwear went in a pair of Eagle Creek half cubes. It was so nice, everything stayed neat and organized, the shirts and pants did not wrinkle. As we moved about from day to day it was so easy to pack up the suitcase by stacking in the folders. When we arrived at a new place I could just pull the folders out and lay them on the extra bed or a table and it was easy to find everything I needed to get dressed the next day.
This is the first time I've tried using this system, and it is so much better than just dumping everything in your suitcase you can't imagine. If you have a big trip coming up, do yourself a favor and get your suitcase organized with this gear.

Great if you're changing hotels frequently
By Tami
We did carry-ons to Europe on a trip to visit several cities in 14 days. We loved these envelopes, easy to pull out of the suitcase when looking for other items, keeps things folded and tidy. Tip- use the hard plastic folding guide card as a "shelf" in the center of the packed envelope, makes it easier to find something without accidentally unfolding other items. On motorcycle trips, we love the Eagle Creek compression bags, but they aren't good for non-knits because of the wrinkle factor - the envelopes kept the clothes in better condition for least amount of touch-up. Tip - take along a small empty spray bottle. Spritz your tops and bottoms the night before you wear them and hang up - this gets out any small packing wrinkles - I hate ironing!! On this trip, we used the compression bag for the dirty clothes, so they take up the least amount of space (don't put your underwire bras in these). We also used the Eagle Creek cubes for packing smaller items, underwear, socks, other small knits, etc.

For the OCD in all of us
By lostinLA
I share a large luggage with my wife when we travel, and it's nice to have things organized and compartmentalized so we don't have to rifle through each others stuff in order to get to that 1 article of clothing in the bottom of the luggage.
The compression feature of the folder system is nice because it reduced our real estate needs by at least 50%! However, my clothes still needed to be ironed when I removed them from the folders.
