Tripley Compression Packing Cubes with Space-Saving Double Zipper, Set of 3 Durable Compression Cubes (Grey / Red)

Using the Diet Coke can for scale, the before and after photos show how well the double zipper system compressed two pairs of jeans, a ski jacket and a knit top. These will come in handy.

Just returned from 15 days in Europe with my family. We each only took enough clothes for 5-6 days and did laundry along the way. We packed in back packs that were able to be carried onto planes and trains, without needing to check baggage. The packing cubes were a godsend! We packed one of the small cubes with what we would need on the flight. It was so easy to just pull out the cube and have it at our seat for easy access on the flight, while everything else stayed packed in the overhead compartment. Also most hotels did not have dressers. The cubes kept us organized while living out of the backpacks. And most importantly, the cubes made it so that everything we needed actually fit into our backpacks! The sizes are great. The large one fits folded shirts and/or pants/dresses. The smaller ones were used for T-shirts and underclothes and socks. Even being packed in compression mode, our clothes were not wrinkly (mind you, we only brought clothes/fabrics that travel well). The cubes are of sturdy construction. At times you have to be careful when using the compression zipper not to catch the fabric in the zipper. Sliding your finger under the zipper (between the extra fabric and the zipper) helped avoid this problem.

The Tripley/Hunter Jackson brand packing cubes are excellent and I highly recommend them. I have used two other packing cube brands and like this one for several reasons - quality of the material - the gray is not flimsy and holds the clothes well; the mesh cover allows you to see the clothes to remind you what is in them; the tab on the zipper is the only I've seen in the industry that tells you what is in the bag. Compression travel cubes are a must for me when I travel, but I have been frustrated with other brands when I can't remember or see what I packed in each cube. The Hunter Jackson brand removes that guess work. They also fit well in carry-ons, but the first trip may prove a little stiff. By the end of the trip, the cording on the cube loosened and they fit even better in the carry on.

When travelling I use a backpack as my carry on under the seat bag. When you pack a backpack things seem to sink to the bottom and wrinkle some. These cubes are perfect!!! Very well made. Not the flimsy material that you find in most bags. Zippers are very strong. They fit well in the Ibagbar rucksack I use. The compression zipper helps hold everything in place and no wrinkles!!! I will order another set for our normal carry on roller. This is my second set of cubes. The first I was very disappointed in the material and zipper quality from another manufacturer. These are much better made with quality zippers. Well worth the money.

Purchased two sets of (3) cubes about 7 weeks ago for our trip to Chile and Argentina; one set for my wife, and one set for me in a different color. We always limit our bags when traveling by air to carry-on regardless of the trip. As such, and because we had to pack for cool, windy early Spring weather in Patagonia and hot, humid, summer-like weather in Santiago and northwestern Argentina, space maximization and organization in our little roller bags were both critical objectives. These sturdy cubes worked perfectly! In fact, we had room in our roller bags for two bottles of wine on our way home. Subsequently we also used the cubes to pack for a long weekend trip by air for a wedding in California. We didn't require as many clothes as we needed for South America, but we still used the cubes and were glad we did. You'll be surprised at how many shirts, among other things, you can roll and fold neatly into a cube. A quality product! Wish I had these years ago when I had to travel for work. I recommend and would buy again.

I love these! I just came back from a trip to Paris, Germany and Austria. I was not sure how I would get nice warm clothes suitable for the Alps in February into a small suitcase. (I think it’s wise to pack as lightly as possible in Europe in particular. Trains, buses and cobblestone streets are not the place you want some huge-assed suitcase you can barely lift!) But these particular compression cubes worked very well for me.I liked the rectangular shape much better for my main clothes than the small, narrow non-compression cubes I already have. (You can see them in my video.) I don’t find roll-up packing to work super well for jeans, sweaters and flannel shirts. Therefore, I appreciated that I could pack my main clothes into the big rectangle. During my trip, I did not compress this larger cube; it wasn’t necessary or particularly helpful so I left it with only the outer zipper zipped, not the compression zipper. I did use the compression zipper for my two smaller rectangles. During my trip, these did not always hold the same items. In the video, you can see I have a dirty clothes bag by Trip Dock. I used this for socks and underware and compressed it whenever we were going on trains to a different city. I even used one of them to compress a small pillow I bought as a souvenir.Forgive the low quality of the video; I was making it for my own organizational process and didn’t know I was going to post it in a review, so some of it might not make great sense to the viewer. The compression garments mentioned are because I am a breast cancer survivor and need these items while traveling.

I have always traveled with a larger checked bag, so wasn't sure how I'd do with just a carry on. I got 8 tops, 2 dresses & a sweater in the large bag. I was able to tuck sandals around the outer edge, since the cube was protecting my clothes. I got all of my beach wear, including swim short and coverups, in the medium bag. And all of my socks and personal items in the other medium bag. I was left with plenty of room to tuck denim shorts and small toiletries in between.The bags seem to be really well made, and I am very happy with the quality of the zippers. And super happy to be able to pack for an entire week at the beach in a small carryon!!
