How to Keep Your Clothes and Shoes Fresh While Traveling: The Smarter Way to Pack

Travel Smarter, Not Heavier

If you’ve ever unpacked your suitcase after a long trip and been hit with a wave of stale air, you’re not alone. Travel is incredible—but stale clothes and smelly shoes? Not so much.

That’s why we created the byMATTER Travel Duo:
✔️ A fabric freshener (Another Day)
✔️ A shoe deodorizer + perfume (Another Step)

Both TSA-friendly. Both beautifully scented. Both designed to make traveling feel elevated.

Why Do Clothes and Shoes Smell While Traveling?

No matter how neatly you pack, travel puts your wardrobe through a lot:

• Tight packing causes poor air circulation

• Dirty laundry mixes with clean items

• Shoes carry odor and bacteria into your suitcase

• Hotel closets and drawers often feel musty

• Rewearing outfits becomes inevitable

Freshness fades fast—but a smart refresh doesn’t require a wash.

The Travel Duo: Your Freshness Hack in 2 Sprays

1. Another Day – Fabric Freshener

A light mist transforms wrinkled, tired fabrics into something you actually want to wear again. It’s safe on clothes, gentle on skin, and smells incredible.

• Spray it on clothes after wearing

• Use it in hotel closets or drawers

• Refresh your travel pillow or plane outfit

2. Another Step – Shoe Deodorizer + Perfume

Shoes are the main culprit of travel odor. Another Step removes odor and adds long-lasting scent. Game-changer.

• Spray inside shoes daily

• Mist socks or insoles

• Use on your suitcase base (yes, really)

Lightweight, Leakproof, and TSA-Approved

The Travel Duo is carry-on approved, so you can keep it with you—on flights, trains, or road trips. Each bottle is small enough to tuck into your toiletry bag, yet powerful enough to last for weeks.

It’s like packing an extra layer of confidence.

Best Practices for Staying Fresh While Traveling

Boost the power of your Travel Duo with these quick tips:

• Keep dirty shoes in a dust bag or separate compartment
