Time of past OR future Camino

When I finish the Camino Frances I will be flying to Paris to spend six days there. I do not want to waste time buying suitable clothes in either Santiago nor Paris so have decided to pack a day pack or similar with clothes I will need to conventionally sight see.
My question is: Would I better posting my gear from SJPDP by mail or should I use a courier service (or similar). Destination would be to Ivar to hold in storage whilst I am walking.

Not sure what that means. "conventionally sight see"

Pat and I spent another 2 weeks in Europe post Camino, just with our Camino clothes

To begin your journey are you flying into Spain or France before heading to SJPDP? We flew into Madrid and took the train to Pamplona. Was easy to send our suitcases to Ivar from there via the post office (as soon as you say Ivar's name they stop asking any questions and knew the address from memory!).
