Lint Roller /
Clothes BrushThis is a no-brainer, but you want a lint roller close so that once you’re finished dressing, you can give yourself a once-over in the mirror and make sure any loose threads, lint and pet fur can be removed quickly. We like this one from MUJI because it’s compact and has a handy outer case that lets you store it vertically. Of course, if you don’t want the mess of replacing the adhesive roll, you could go for a more traditional option: a stiff bristle brush that doesn’t pick up everything but does a good job of cleaning up pants, suit jacket and overcoats.

Rechargeable fabric shaver,
$29.99 by Conair
Fabric Shaver
A fabric shaver is one of those tools that you don’t think is all that necessary, but once you have it, you see just how magical the thing is. When certain fabrics rub together, they form little balls of fuzz (this is known as pilling). That can make a garment look old and sloppy. Simply run this over the area and it shaves off all the pills, revealing a smooth, like-new surface. It works wonders on sweaters, the underarms of shirts and the seat of some pants.

Second, after a long day of walking, some shoe trees will absorb any moisture in shoes and will fight odors.
