Editor's Notes
April 13, 2020:
Poor zippers can be extremely frustrating, which is why we've removed the Rownyeon Portable and the Mossio Compression. Instead, we've added a couple of options from brands known for their attention to these details, including the Eagle Creek Pack-It Specter Tech and the Osprey UltraLight Roll. Granted, these are a little pricier than many somewhat similar choices, but they have the rugged construction to go the long haul. The former is an upgraded version of the company's popular Specter packing cubes; this particular version features better compression than the original. The Osprey roll packs down small and is exceedingly lightweight, making it the choice of backpackers who are trying to keep their toiletries to a minimum.
If it is cords you need to get a handle on, the AmazonBasics Universal and the BUBM Accessories Bag remain worthy options. The latter can even accommodate up to a 9.7-inch tablet, and it comes in several colors, making it a workable choice for many needs. There's also the Chomeiu Cosmetic. Although it was created for carrying makeup, as you probably guessed from the name, it also does a fine job with tech accessories of various sizes. And, finally, for smaller pieces, we've added the Vaultz Mesh Storage Bags. Your imagination is the only limit to the type of travel gear they'll hold, from cables to medications, and because they come in a variety of colors, you can use them to color-coordinate your gear.

Tom Bihn Handy Little Thing The Tom Bihn Handy Little Thing was not created for any one particular use; instead, this clamshell pouch could function as a toiletry holder, sling purse, cable organizer, and much, much more. Offered in two sizes, it boasts webbing handle loops that allow you to hold it open and use it as a writing surface. tombihn.com
