The Best Packing Cubes For First Time Travelers
We can’t say it enough—you need to own a set of these.
The best way to have a great first trip is to be organized and plan ahead. Packing cubes will help ease the first-time jitters and keep your stuff in place. Here are five sets to consider and why.
Material is important, so pick cubes that have nylon, polyester, or similar hard-wearing materials that can take a beating and keep your stuff together.
Look for cubes that will let you see what's inside at a glance, with mesh or clear plastic panels, so you can grab what you need.
Get a set with a clear plastic cube to keep toiletries in, so you can finally ditch the zipper-top bag.
If you'll need to bring a change of shoes or keep your hiking gear separate from the rest of your stuff, shoe bags are a must-have.
If you're going to need a lot of space, look into reusable compression bags.
