To have and to fold

The new Trifold Garment Sleeve from Lite Gear adds some oomph to the usual hanging-clothes bag. The bag not only secures and zips in suits, dresses or other hangables to keep them wrinkle free en route, it also supplies three spacious but featherweight pockets — two of them see-through mesh — for organizing shoes, undergarments, or other essentials, then tri-folds down into rectangle just the right size to fit in any wheel-aboard bag. The Trifold has two snap buckles for secure closure as well as a built in carry handle. Open, the black polyester bag measures 37 inches by 19.5 inches. It weighs barely one pound.

Lite Gear Trifold Garment Sleeve is about $40. Info at www.litegearbags.com.
