Travel 2017: Hangers, Brilliant Gadgets For People On The Road

Travel hangers for clothes are among the basic things for people who are always on the go, and one example of this is the regular plastic hanger. However, the design is so simple, given that it is flat and the hook folds down, while its broad outline makes it awkward to pack. Now, a new travel item is believed to have a clever design that would also prevent travelers to worry about a likely snap if weight is placed across.

A new travel hanger called Y002 is a Japanese brand with a clever design that is only a piece of leather and two pieces of wood. The item is so thin that it could be slipped into a bag without taking up any space.

Travel hanger Y002 is regarded by many as an item with an almost-perfect choice of materials, considering that its designers acknowledge one flaw in its design. Based on reports, the leather dyes could be transferred to clothing when humid or wet clothings are used. Nevertheless, the travel hanger also provides two wood options for the travelers: the mahogany and one made from Ramin, which is a tropical hardwood found only in Southeast Asia, Core77 reported.

Meanwhile, there are still other cool travel items that are reported to make trips easier, safer and more enjoyable. Among these is the pocket-size washing machine. Travel to either Europe, African safari or on a budget in South Asia, and the Scrubba Wash Bag would be a great help. According to reports, this travel gadget is made from a flexible washboard that makes it so easy to carry.

For those who need to travel, this pocket-sized wash bag is believed to also save time and money, not only with the laundry anywhere on the road. In fact, with just 2 to 4 liters of water and a little of washing liquid, the clothes are kept fresh and clean in less than three minutes, Travel Away reported.
