Highson has just created the ultimate accessory for high-powered executives in the Suit Commute. The Suit Commute is a self-described "[all in one commuter solution](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultix-outdoors-superpack)" that houses suits in a backpack for easy carrying. The Suit Commute has a removable flexible hanger that carries your suit for [crease-free travel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lenor-crease-releaser).

It's perfect for air travel, and acts as a great [carry on](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monos-carryon-pro-plus) to ensure it stays ironed to perfection. The Suit Commute also has a compartment for a 17-inch laptop *and* up to a size 12 pair of shoes! Sorry for all you men whose feet are too big for the Suit Commute--I'm sure you'll manage.
