Garment bags protect clothes so that they look fresh no matter how long they’ve been stored. Whether storing gowns, suits, or delicate fabrics, there are several types of bags that provide different amounts of protection. Staples® offers a range of garment bags, hat boxes, and other storage solutions.
The Purpose of Garment Bags: Storage or Travel
Clothing bags protect garments in two situations: storage or travel. Storage bags keep clothing safe while tucked away for months or years. The most common type of bag for storage is a bridal bag, designed to keep wedding gowns safe and fresh for years to come. They often have a full bottom to fit large skirts comfortably. Travel bags are intended to protect clothing while on a trip. Suits remain unwrinkled and clean. The most common travel bags are zippered garment bags, which zip shut, so clothes return home safely. Another popular travel bag is the tri-fold that folds up, so it fits in small storage areas.
Protective Features of Garment Bags
Whether using a clothing bag for storage or travel purposes, both have different features that affect use. One of the most important features is material. What the bag is made from determines how well it protects the clothing inside. Storage bags or bridal bags are often made from nylon, Teflon, or muslin. All of them are acid-free to prevent discoloration and moisture while also breathable so fresh air gets inside the bag. Travel bags are usually Teflon or vinyl. Teflon is a thick, sturdy material that repels water and stains. Most suitcases and tri-fold bags are made with Teflon. Vinyl garment bags come in different gauges, which determines the thickness of the material. The thicker the vinyl, the greater protection it provides.
Another feature that determines protective ability is the bottom of the bag. Clothing bags with open bottoms make it easy to carry long items without folding them. Clothing bags with closed bottoms protect the item from dragging on the ground.
Useful Extra Features of Garment Bags
Storage and travel bags come in different colors. Many choices are aesthetic, such as embossed, taffeta, or alligator. Others serve a purpose, such as clear bags that provide easy viewing of the garment inside. Black bags keep out sunlight that causes discoloration. Some models are black with clear windows to see inside. Many include pockets to hold labels.
Is it Possible to Take Garment Bags on Planes?
Garment bags are allowed by many airlines as carry-ons, but they must fit the required size limits. Every airline has different rules, so always check before heading to the airport.
Is it Safe to Store Leather in Garment Bags?
To store leather, choose a cloth bag with a tight weave. This will allow air inside, but keep moisture and dust out. It is also recommended to wrap the item in an acid-free archival paper before placing inside the bag.
Are Zippers on Garment Bags Dangerous?
Many garment bags have zippers. Placement of the zipper can harm the clothing inside. Zippers on the front of the bag won’t snag clothing easily. If worried about zippers, choose a clothing bag with a slide lock or buttons. For extra protection, choose one with material that folds over the opening for complete enclosure.
