Clothes Compression Board, Wardrobe Space Saver Straps

Winter clothing does not take up space because there is a lot of it. It takes up space because it is full of air. A single down jacket can occupy the same shelf as six t-shirts, and every wardrobe in the country loses a third of its capacity to that one fact.

This board and strap set removes the air. Fold the garment against the board, draw the strap around it, and pull. The board keeps the fold square so the result is a flat, stackable brick rather than a lumpy bundle, and the strap holds the compression without a vacuum pump, a bag or a power point. Nothing is sealed, so the fabric still breathes and comes out without the crushed creases a vacuum bag leaves behind.

Use it seasonally to put winter coats away without surrendering a shelf, or use it in a suitcase, where it is often the difference between one bag and two. Works on down jackets, wool coats, jumpers, hoodies and spare bedding. Available in pink or beige.
