The Very Best Ways to Pack Your P.MAI Bag
Here are some of our favorite ways to get the most out of your travel bag.
1. Pack the heaviest item close to your back.
For maximum stability, load your heaviest item (such as a laptop) in the pocket closest to your back. This keeps it secure and balanced. It also ensures that you’re not putting uneven weight on your shoulders.

2. Stack items as if you’re stacking wood (horizontally).
This ensures that your overall load is low and centered, and that items won’t shift around during your commute. If you’re packing clothing, opt for cotton, knits, and wools - these resist wrinkles better than other fabrics.

3. Keep precious items inside, but within reach.
Valuable items such as house keys or a smartphone should be kept inside at all times. Use a front pocket or an internal hook to keep them accessible, but also safe.

4. Use the water-bottle compartment for so much more.
Instead of just a water bottle, that rounded compartment can hold and secure a variety of items: a rolled-up leash, an eyeglass case, snack pouches, sunscreen, the charger for your laptop, etc.

5. Fit your carry-all … onto another carry-all.
Slip your bag through the handle of your suitcase trolley, and now you’ve got a way to breeze through the airport and lighten the load on your body.
