Vacuum pack drysuit undergarments?

[RumBum]

I have an Andy's and a DUI 200 gram. Living in a motorhome right now so we have very little storage space. Can I store my DS undergarments in a space-saver bag? We are going to be living and travelling in this motorhome so I am bringing wet and dry gear. The dry suit undies may be stored this way several months at a time.
Thanks!

Sure you can store your fleece this way.

I wouldn't. The underwear gets it's insulating value from air spaces betwen the fibers, however if you mash it too tightly for too long, the air spaces don't all come back.

You might find that you now own 100 Gram UW. This is why you're not supposed to store a sleeping bag in a stuff sack.

This might work OK with fleece, but will definitly not work well with any sort of fiberfill (hollow fill, etc.)

Better to get rid of stuff that takes up other space so you can keep the undies out. Like maybe clothes you don;t use for diving, an older child that can fend for themself, etc.

I would think so. That stuff will not crush without rebounding nicely.

You're right, the cats are packing their bags now!
