Booking flights, buying tickets to museums, and securing dinner reservations make planning a vacation time-consuming enough. Any product that takes the stress out of travel is welcomed in our book, especially when it comes to packing.
Whether you’re planning for a weekend getaway or a weeks-long international trip, fitting clothes, shoes, and toiletries into a suitcase can often pose a challenge without the right system. Packing cubes, particularly ones with a compression feature, can make all the difference in fitting your must-haves and staying well-organized. If you’re looking for a reliable set, Quince’s packing cubes are a favorite among Travel + Leisure editors, and they are just $10 apiece.
Quince Eco Compression Packing Cubes

The six-piece Eco Compression Packing Cube set includes varying shapes and sizes. The larger piece is best for accommodating larger items like pants, jackets and bulky sweaters, while the smaller cubes keep underwear, socks, and accessories organized. Once each cube is packed, the compression zipper reduces the height of the bags, so your suitcase can accommodate more items.
Not only do the compression cubes make it easier to pack enough outfits for longer trips in a smaller bag, but they do so while protecting your clothes and keeping them neatly folded and wrinkle-free in transit. Plus, the bags are water-repellant for added protection. Each piece has built-in ventilation, which keeps the contents fresh and makes it easier to spot the items inside. While the versatile packing cubes are designed to fit in Quince’s carry-on suitcase, they work with any suitcase or duffel bag.
One shopper, who packed only a carry-on suitcase for a 10-day trip to Asia thanks to the cubes, said they were able to fit everything they needed while “keeping clean and dirty laundry separated.” Another traveler, who used these to pack for a 30-day trip, said they kept them “well organized,” while a third shared that the “soft and flexible” structures “makes packing a breeze.” Even a self-proclaimed “chronic overpacker” called these compression cubes a “lifesaver” since they “save space” and keep them organized, which allows them to travel with only a carry-on.
This set comes in six colors: black, beige, gray, blue, dark green, and navy. Snag them ahead of your next trip to ensure an easy packing experience, and keep scrolling to shop for more travel essentials at Quince.
