Before jetting off to your next holiday, perfect the art of packing light with MUJI Singapore’s handy travel collection
With the end of the year drawing closer, it can only mean one thing – vacation time! Once your flights are booked, accommodation sorted out, and itinerary planned, then comes the dreaded part: packing. For many of us, mastering the art of packing light would seem next to impossible (so many things to cram into one little suitcase!) – until of course, MUJI came into the picture.
Besides being our go-to source for all things practical yet minimalist chic, the Japanese megastore certainly knows a thing or two about helping us pack like a pro. The proof? MUJI to GO, a new collection of handy travel essentials every jetsetter needs.
Your days of panic-packing, hefty excess baggage charges, and uncomfortable long-haul flights are so over because MUJI to GO is all about mobility, compactness, functionality, and comfort. From sleek luggage to travel-sized pouches, chic travel attire, and oh-so-practical accessories, each piece from the collection is aimed to make every step of your travels as seamless – and as stylish – as possible.
Step #1: Packing
The first step to packing like a pro? Planning! With MUJI’s neat little Checklist Memo Pad, you’ll never forget to pack your toothbrush or laptop charger again. Whether you’re jetting off to a quick weekend getaway or a long vacation, every traveller needs a sturdy piece of luggage like the Hard Carry Case: a sleek piece made from lightweight polycarbonate composite material with practical features such as an adjustable carry bar and wheel locking function.
Other star products from MUJI to GO? Check out the Nylon Foldable Assortment Case – perfect for organising your packing and maximising your suitcase space – and Hanging Bath Case, which lets you sort your toiletries and hang them up once you’ve reached your destination. Handy!
Step #2: Travelling
When trapped on board long-haul flights, little luxuries are a godsend (especially in cattle class!). We can’t live without MUJI’s super-comfy Neck Cushion, made from high-quality, soft stretch fabric and filled with micro beads for perfect neck support. If you’re feeling chilly, throw on a Pocketable Lightweight Windbreaker or snuggle up in a Cape: a versatile piece made from 100% cotton knit fabric that can be worn seven different ways.
Step #3: Arrival
For those who hand-wash their undergarments in hotel rooms, you’ll love MUJI’s Portable Laundry Set, which contains a mini washboard, a hanger with eight clothespins, and a handy pouch for easy storage. Another travel essential from MUJI to GO is the Tag Tool: available in eight different functions (thermometer/hygrometer, pedometer, LED light, mirror, tape measure, reflector, loupe, and alarm clock), you’ll never have to lug around a variety of tools when you travel.
Finally, the ultimate travel companion you’ll need is MUJI’s popular Boston Bag: made from paraglider fabric, this lightweight and durable overnight bag folds up compactly and comes in handy when you need extra packing space in a moment’s notice.
The MUJI to GO collection is now available online and in stores islandwide.
