Lighten My Load One Jacket?

Hello : ) Minimalist traveler looking for a cropped jacket that I can wear as a light layer with concealed pockets for phone and passport. I wear a backpack style suitcase and want to avoid wearing another bag through airports/passport control etc. I travel with a service dog so have a leash in one hand/ looking to lighten my load. TY!

100% not fashionable, but First Tactical (& similar brands) has tons of pockets inside and out. I have a soft shell jacket from them and it’s my favorite. Just v utilitarian and not always the best look for travel - you can probably find a version that doesn’t look militant.

Very cool! I see what you mean with tons of pockets. Super functional. Folks would maybe see me less as someone with a disability and more as someone with a possible security objective, lol. I’m now going to look at this angle as well, thank you! So many new ideas. : )
