We all want to look our best while traveling, and buying brand-new clothes for your trip may seem like the best possible way to get there. Unfortunately, this is much trickier than it seems, and here’s a couple of reasons why you should think twice before packing shoes and clothes that you’ve just bought.
Perfect Fit
Before packing new clothes for your trip, you should put them on at least once and see if they feel comfortable enough when you’re wearing them for hours. It’s also important to think ahead and see how well they fit with the rest of your clothes.
Laundry Duty
You should also wash your clothes at least once before wearing them, especially if you’re planning to do laundry during your trip. Some clothes tend to shrink and stretch in the washer or dryer, and you definitely don’t want that to happen in the middle of your trip.
Shoe Trouble
Even if you don’t see the problem traveling with brand-new clothes, never do this with shoes. You’ll spend countless hours on foot, and that’s why it’s so important to travel in reliable shoes that you had a chance to break-in properly.
