For years I didn’t use packing cubes and always thought, “how much could they really help?” One day, I did some research and tested these packing cubes from one of my favorite travel brands, Beis, and I don’t know how I ever lived without them. They have been a game changer for my suitcase and allow me to pack more and stay organized. I also use them as a benchmark for how many clothes I actually need to bring with me and I don’t pack more than what can fit. Here’s why I love them:
1. They last. I have had these for a few years and they have gone through a lot of wear and tear moments, but they have stayed perfectly functional (with no zipper breaks!)
2. They are lightweight but keep their structure. Some packing cubes could be flimsy or not made of the most durable material, but these are high quality and long lasting. They never get bent out of shape and keep their hold year after year.
3. They come in many sizes. This one set gives you everything you need. The main cubes come in three sizes that fit nicely into your carry on.
4. The shoe bags. I didn’t think about needing bags for my shoes before owning this set but I love them. I use them to keep my nice white sneakers clean in my suitcase, but they also protect more delicate sandals. With some of my smaller shoes I fit one pair in one bag, while my sneakers I use one bag per shoe.
5. The zipper pouch. Small but mighty, I love this pouch! It’s made of high quality, durable material and I personally love using it as my socks and underwear bag.
