No.1 Useful Item

Story by Danny Lee

What I love most about longyi is that they are hugely practical and hence have become my no. 1 most useful item to take with me everywhere I go. During air travel I would use one to cover my clothes inside the suitcase. With the strap attached, it will keep everything in place and nothing will fall out when I open the case. The other Longyi I take inside the cabin to keep me warm during the flight. I either use it as a scarf or an additional blanket. Once I arrive at my accommodation only to find out that no towels are supplied, I won't freak out because: Longyi. But most importantly, nothing can beat the comfort of a Longyi. The first thing I do when I get home is change into a Longyi and wear it as pants. For the ultimate comfort, I go commando.

There are so many ways to use it but the one that I appreciate the most is to utilize it as an instant changing room at the beach or in any other public place. It will cover your best parts while you still have both hands free to change quickly. My wish for the future, a quick-dry micro-fiber longyi for travelling :)
