Have a safe and exciting trip.Thanks Lee.
That is the spproach taken.
Wool & Prince and Bluffeorks are travel brands, using the materials developed for the hiking community for “city” clothes.
The Hopsack blazer is specifically for travel, no crease, machine or hand wash, fast dry, lots of internal pockets. It just looks dreadful.
All the shirts, undershirt Ts, undies and socks are in Merino.
The slip on are specifically for Japan due to routine taking off / putting on of shoes. Have some Chelsea boots for bigger walking days.
The only things not specifically for travel are the blazer I am actually taking and the rain coat.
Anyway, heading to the airport in an hour so we will just have see how it goes.
That’s for taking the time to comments, we are thinking alike here. This is where I have ended up via pursuing what you have suggested.
