Appreciate the videos. I love packing cubes and don't know how I did without them in the past. One thing that is often omitted from packing for the weekend type videos by a multitude of channels are outfits for fitness (running, trips to the hotel gym, etc.) This always has enormous impact on my ability to pack a single small carryon. While I understand @HeSpokeStyle might not include fitness on his weekend getaways, I would love to see this topic included the next time, if only a quick mention with a tip or two. Thanks and keep up the great content!
I've learned from personal experience that packing my workout clothing for short, quick trips is a waste of space. What is always the best of intentions turns into an impractical hope with such a packed schedule. Now, for longer trips, yes, of course, workout gear.
@@hespokestyle So true. I am a professional athlete who really has to work out every single day and you can understand this has grown to be a huge habit so at first I used to pack sport clothes even for a single day trip. Which I never ever used. I am almost obligated to do but I don't workout during short trips. There are so many other things to do.
Love this - great outfit ideas. I am a bit more limited given my size. I basically have to half what you provided. I make it work, but it's hard to create unique outfits for more than 2 days.
Bbryan with a strong Hemingway look with that green fisherman sweater and a beard. Great video (as always) will have to pick up some of those travel cubes those look very useful. Thank you!
Excellent advice, 3 week's too late for my chilli weekend down London , I didn't take enough jumpers and my new Belstaff trialmaster , not very warm! Wish I had taken a wool overcoat. Excellent tips .
Great video, thanks. You didn't mention perfumes... Essiantial item! I personally have small spray bottles that I fill with perfumes from big bottles to save space and to be able to bring good variety, specially for long trips.
You could make video How to Pack for 4 to 7 Day Trip (business trip) with every detail, what to pack. How to pack. To show combinations for: travel. Work 1st day, evening combination 1st day and etc… Video for summer period and winter period.
Great looks simple to put together! What would be interesting (to me at least) would to see how Robin dressed compared to which outfit you were wearing. Sometimes I'm not on the same page as my wife when it comes to casual vs. dressy. 😉BTW the train from Balt/DC is the only way to go to NYC. A few years back I decided to drive from DC to NYC. To this day I still scratch my head....what was I thinking! 😂
Oh, man. When Robin lived in Queens, I drove a couple times. Between someone ramming a shopping cart into my car as I was crossing Manhattan through the Bronx and needing to constantly be worried about what side of the street was going to be cleaned any given morning, I vowed to never do it again.
@@hespokestyle Yeah, I also managed to get a ticket for blocking the intersection just after crossing into the city....truck in front of me stopped for no reason with nowhere for me to go! 😔
It’s always great to have a video from you, Brian. Really great video! I love the outfit videos, of course, but these are some great practical tip, especially the packing cubes. The outfits you planned out are a nice bonus. That DB chalk stripe flannel suit is killer as is the camel overcoat! How often do you travel to NYC? Would be nice to say hi one of these days. Thanks for the video, Brian! P.S. Good sponsor, too. I was subscribed to Audible for years. Outstanding selection.
A glaring omission! Yes, I usually travel with PJs as well. My favorite pair to travel with are a silk set from Budd Shirtmakers. They're exceptionally comfortable, very lightweight, and take up hardly any space.
The traveling tips are great and well worth keeping and I'm heading to rome in a few weeks time and it's a mixture of city walking and dining out so I'll taking four days worth of clothes and also there's a dress code for the hotel and the Sistine chapel so I'll be dressing accordingly

Thanks buddy - well done! We are traveling to Palm Springs for a week this month and you inspired me to purchase both packing cubes AND a travel steamer! See how influential you are? :-)
@@hespokestyle Thx! oooh yeah, we stayed at Ingleside Inn a few years ago and poked our heads in to check out Melvyns. It looked wonderful - loved the old school vibe. On the list, for sure. It is my husband's birthday that weekend and we have reservations at another fantastic restaurant that I can recommend to you two! :-) It is the old Cary Grant home - Copley's. It also has awesome courtyard seating. 👍
Just one thing I'm wondering about. Which fragrances are you going to wear? It's always the hardest for me to decide when it comes to what I want to bring along.
Great question! I didn't get super granular about that in this video, but I would probably bring the following: Krigler Blue Escapade 24: krigler.com/collections/fragrances/products/blue-escapade-24-perfume Frederic Malle French Lover: rstyle.me/+8KMcRQQlwy-RXI5IZE-6yQ
This was really interesting and well-presented, good inspo! BUT the 'pack light' voice in my head can't resist pointing out how extra the outfits were lol totally would've scrapped the second turtleneck, v-neck, denim shirt, black jeans and just reused the first turtleneck personally. Suppose it doesn't matter too much if you're on wheels!

I need a guide on how to travel to Europe for 6 weeks, stay efficient, and most importantly, stay stylish. I’m having a tough time planning what to bring
The shirt in the video is Cucinelli. We have a similar one in the shop. It’s shown with a regular collar but can be customized: hespokestyle.com/product/denim-dress-shirt/
Loved the video and the looks as always! A bit surprised at your choice of a dinner look, I’d go with something a bit less conservative for a nice restaurant. But perfectly elegant nonetheless. Peace!
Hey Brian, long time no comment for me. Can you provide a link to the watch roll that you own? Or if not that one, recommend a few brands that make a good watch roll? Preferably something that’s full grain leather & made well! Thank you boss!
I’m in need of some good sneakers for walking. Like on a trip to nyc. I find most good looking sneakers aren’t that comfortable for really walking and exploring. And the ones that are comfortable are dorky looking. Any recommendations?
I love that you have a steamer and watch roll…but only two pair underwear. 😊 sometimes after a day out, you want to shower before dinner out. It’s awfully nice to not have to put old underwear on. Just sayin’. Love the channel.
I'm sure Amazon wouldn't object to that option! I used to read on a Kindle, but found it was another device that I had to keep with me and charged up. There is something nice about actually "reading" but I must say that I've enjoyed the audiobooks I've listened to and I never thought I'd be an audiobook kind of guy. Great for when you're commuting in the car.

One suggestion that has worked well for me: If my outfit is all solid colors like yours, I'll use a pattered scarf. If my cloths are patterned, I'll use a solid scarf. Solid outfits benefit from a pop to add interest, and patterned outfits shouldn't be made unnecessarily busy.
Thanks for asking. A few things going on which I’ll cover in a video soon. The biggest is that I am retiring from the military after 20+ years and that process is involved. HSS will finally become full time. In preparation for that we are working with a consultant to map our processes, develop SOPs and implement all that in our project management software so we are able to scale faster and make informed hiring decisions. And honestly good videos take a lot of time and effort to make and I would rather focus on making the best quality videos rather than making videos that all look the same just to make videos which doesn’t serve anyone.
Brian, let me tell you that this sport coat packing hack just changed my LYFE!!!😂🙌
Glad to hear it! 😁
