Another advantage about silk base layers is that they dry so fast. On my last trip to Canada I took a pair of merino thermals and 1 of silk. The silk 1s would dry overnight when handwashed, which was great bcos the merino take a lot longer.
And I didn't take jeans this last trip - too bulky. Wool pants and pleather pants take up less space and are much warmer.
I did take a blanket scarf and absolutely no regrets - mine has zips and can also be worn as a poncho or even a skirt. And it doubles as a blanket during longhaul flights
These are all great points!!!
My theory was that good stockings with a dress or skirt would be a good option but as an Aussie it doesn't get close to freezing, so good to have a Canadian input! loved the other tips too
Yeah no. As an Aussie who's done a couple of Canadian winter trips, trust me, if you think you can get away with that, you will DIE (unless you plan on not going outside at all) 😏
@@susie9893 luckily where I went it hovered around 0C and not much below so thick stockings/leggings with warm boots was fine for the most part! But I can imagine where it gets deep into the negatives it's better to have proper warm pants
Loved the simple and practical presentation. The grid idea is so helpful when looking at destinations and weather!
So helpful! The illustrations were super helpful especially!!! Thanks for including those I loved this video 🥰
I'm so glad!
Great video! Packing for a winter trip can be such a challenge, but you've shared some really helpful tips here. I love how you broke it down into different quadrants based on the weather and the nature of the trip. It's so important to choose the right footwear and outerwear to stay warm and comfortable. And your advice on layering under everything is spot on! The tips on pants, turtlenecks, and accessories are fantastic as well. Thanks for sharing your expertise and making winter packing seem less daunting! Keep up the great work!
Thank you for this super kind comment! I am so happy when the content resonates with others because it really has helped me improve my happiness on the road! Thanks for watching!
❤Best Video on UA-cam for winter travel info!!! I'm going to New York City and I have watched a lot of packing videos in the past few days and this one beats them all!!!!
Thank you so much for watching and for your kind words! I have been too busy to make this kind of long-form content recently but I really miss it because I know it brings a lot of value
One of The best videos regarding this subject. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this kind comment!
Very helpful. Thank you.
Thank you for the tips :) I'm plant-based so I favour bamboo or hemp base layers and socks - super cosy, breathable, warm, and also thin for layering. There are lots of good places to get these nowadays, but I do like Thought. Nicer for the planet and the animals. I've tried organic cotton and recycled bottle ones, I would definitely go for bamboo or hemp over these.
I LOVE hemp! Highly underrated. What are the best places for hemp and bamboo basics?
I've never heard of Hemp base layers. I'll have to look into that. Are they scratchy at all? I have some bamboo base layers and while defo not scratchy they just don't breathe near as well as merino making them far less warm. I'd only pack them for milder winter (NOT Canada) or Fall. Have you tried merino? Are you able to give an objective comparison (regarding hemp base layers)?
Your video was super helpful! Thank you!
Thank you so much! Comments like these keep me going.
I love the grid system

Love the video, I needed something like as I am going Seoul, South Korea in Winter and want to be both stylish and warm. Also where are those white boots from? I love them!
Thank you for watching! They are from Everlane, the day boot! capsulesuitcase.com/shop/shoes/everlane-day-boot/
I’m struggling to decide what to buy for my Tbilisi trip in December 😩😩
I love traveling in winter because I have hide stuff in pockets. But it’s a nightmare to have everything fit in winter. I put jackets in those travel bags to make them smaller
Hello! Excellent video!
Would you let me use small parts of your video to prepare an English exercise?
Sure, please just credit and link back to my channel :-)
@@TheCapsuleSuitcase Thank you so much! I will credit and link it for sure!
Thanks for the tips! I'm a huge fan of Merino wool, but I still haven't tried silk base layers. Are there any particular brands you recommend for silk? 🌺Heidi
Hi Heidi! Thanks for your comment! Mine are from REI in the US which was pretty affordable and have held up well over the years.
@@TheCapsuleSuitcase Thanks!
Good vidéo! Want an extra challenge? A winter business trip (very formal)!😅 i’m going for a 7 days business trip in Poland in february, and I want to be carry on only. Any tips? 😊
I love this prompt! I will think about some tips to share !
I live in the tropics going to UK for February 😮. We have next to no winter gear and will feel extra cold anyway!!
Oh yikes, that will be quite the shock! Keep your hands, head, and feet warm and add a vest to heat your core and you'll be ok...at least a little less miserable haha.
@@TheCapsuleSuitcase thanks for the tips!!
❤
whatd an alternative for a wool baselayer? especially socks? :)
I've heard good things about bamboo lately!
where do you usually get your turtle necks and dresses?
Hi Jess! I get my merino turtlenecks from Club Monaco, specifically the Julia model that I have in three colours. My silk-bend turtleneck is from the H&M Premium line. As for dresses, it's a mix. I recommend Wool& for merino dresses but I have a few dresses from COS, STAUD, and Uniqlo.
Great tips but no quantities.
Oh I want to see physically how all these you mentioned fits in a small hand-held carry on😥😛
Helpful to know you would like that, thanks for sharing! In some of my newer pack with me videos I try to show the actual packing.
Hi! Where did you get your camel wool coat?
Hi! It's from Massimo Dutti 3-4 years ago. I saw a similar one at Club Monaco this season in the same colour.
@@TheCapsuleSuitcase Thank you! ❤️
By the time I bought many of the items recommended here, it would be a lot cheaper to use a bigger suitcase to pack the things I already have that may not be as "efficient" to fit into a smaller carry-on. And I never pay to check a bag, anyway, because I have an airline credit card or have found other ways around the charge.
I agree that buying everything new would be pricey, but it might work to watch for sales on items when planning a future trip! Or borrowing from a friend or family member.
@@leelens3yes, it's surprising what you can pick up on sale. Bcos I'm an Aussie I don't have much use for extreme cold climate gear so I can't justify spending huge amounts of money on them. But I now have a very satisfactory collection of merino and other thermal items + solid outerwear options that I picked up in sales (many ppl suggest thrifted items but I've never had any luck in this area that way, and I've looked). And I still get use out of them when I visit colder parts of Oz and sometimes even in Sydney (some of the layering pieces).
I guess it depends on how much wear you'll get out of those pieces over time - if you live in a very warm climate and only intend to do 1 trip to a cold climate then yeah, paying extra for checking your bag MIGHT be worth it (provided they don't lose your bag)
What you are allergic to wool and acrylic?
Oof I’m sorry to hear that. I would recommend silk and alternative synthetics. Cotton for top layers.
Silk is very viable and maybe you could look into some of the bamboo blends? I wouldn't suggest the >60% bamboo 1s, they absorb too much moisture in my experience and therefore aren't as warm. There are an increasing amount of blends out there in thermals so I would shop around. You may even be able to get away with a thermal with only 20% merino blended with a couple of other materials (I've seen merino and silk blends, silk and merino blends + a lot of other minor contributors from viscose to elastane). Unfortunately, in my experience, nothing beats 100% merino for extreme cold.
However, I do suggest you look into recommendations from ppl who do winter camping or winter multi days hikes in places like Canada. Those ppl can really give you some very practical suggestions.
Another thing to consider is silk base layers then a merino slim fit mid layer then another layer before your outerwear. I'm a big fan of many thin layers under a goretex jacket (vs a puffer jacket) - I hate being all bulked up unless I can't avoid it (eg
it comes across a bit too rehearsed, maybe don't rehearse the words to sound more natural ? just my opinion im not hating or anything , thank you for the video x
I'll try! It's definitely a journey to remember what I want to say and sound natural. Thanks for watching!
She made a very good video.
@@adriennekushner2492 i didn't say she didn't and clearly she didn't interpret my comment like you did
I didn’t see how you packed all those clothes and it’s important .
