A well-packed suitcase is a small act of taste. This lookbook pairs outfit ideas with packing strategies so your clothes — and ties — arrive ready to wear. Each “look” is a realistic travel scenario with a short packing list, styling note, and a precise place for a JIMUTO tie case (because a tie kept right is a tie earned). Use this as a template for short trips, long journeys, weddings and business travel.
Look 1 — The One-Day Client Meeting
Packing focus: single suit, dress shirt, one tie.
Pack list: suit (on top or in garment folder), shirt, one pair dress shoes, belt, tie (JIMUTO JTC-BE).
Tie case placement: flat box-style case inside briefcase or outer compartment of carry-on so it’s immediately accessible.
Why it works: quick access + presentation-ready on arrival.
Look 2 — The Overnight Pitch
Packing focus: blazer, chinos, spare tie, casual shoes.
Pack list: blazer, shirt, chinos, 1 tie (JIMUTO JTC-BS rolled), toiletries.
Tie case placement: roll-style case in a zippered internal pocket to reduce bulk.
Why it works: compact and protects without needing a full garment bag.
Look 3 — The Weekend City Break (Smart Casual)
Packing focus: knitwear, dark denim, one dress shirt for evenings.
Pack list: two shirts, sweater, jeans, one tie (optional, JIMUTO JTC-BE), sneakers.
Tie case placement: tuck the slim tie case into the mid-layer between shirts to cushion.

Packing focus: full suit, two ties (spare), pocket square.
Pack list: suit (garment bag), two ties (JIMUTO JTC-BE + JIMUTO JTC-BS), pocket square, dress shoes.

Closing notes — Pack like it matters
Small choices—where you place a tie case, how you fold or roll—make the difference between arriving ready and rushing to salvage an outfit. For travel confidence, pair a JIMUTO travel case (JIMUTO JTC-BS) for journeys and a refined flat case (JIMUTO JTC-BE) for presentation and gifting. Build your look and pack with intention.
