Traveling can be stressful at the best of times, especially packing. Fortunately, there are ways to make the experience more enjoyable and, best of all, stress-free.
Well known for their stylish and robust suitcases, Antler also has a wide range of accessories to enhance your packing experience, and the brand’s set of 4 packing cubes is the perfect way to organize your suitcase – whether you’re traveling for one, or four.
Perfect for those who despise throwing everything in a case, the packing cubes can be used to separate your tops from your socks, or if you’re super organized, you can even pack entire outfits into the larger and medium cubes to avoid the dreaded ‘I don’t know what to wear” stress. Best of all, you don’t even have to unpack your clothes, just lift them straight out of your suitcase upon arrival. Because the cubes have mesh windows, it means you can see what’s inside at a glance.

The set of four includes a large packing cube ideal for jackets or trousers, a medium cube that can be used for shirts, dresses or shoes, and two smaller cubes – perfect for underwear and socks.
They cost £50 for a pack of four, and you can choose from four colors to match your favorite suitcase, including black, taupe, navy and green. Many shoppers have also left five-star reviews on Antler’s website, and many were shocked at how much you can pack inside the cubes thanks to the clever compression zippers that free up even more space.
One happy customer said: “At first I thought they were small but when I used them I realized how much you can pack in them and then use compressed zip to make them half the size. Great quality and very strong. So happy with the cubes”
While a third wrote “The packing cubes are brilliant – I’m a convert!! We managed to use a much more compact suitcase as our belongings were better organized. The cubes fold flat when not in use, but expand a lot. Because the mesh top is easy to see what’s inside at a glance They’re especially useful if you’re traveling with a lot of stopovers.
Despite many glowing reviews, it seems not everyone is completely sold with one customer describing them as “good but unnecessarily expensive”, adding: “I bought two sets of the packing cubes, they look durable and do the job effectively. The size is good for the smaller packs, but my wife and I found the larger packs inconvenient and inadequate. The biggest downside to these cubes is the price is a good deal.”
Not only are they great for keeping your clothes organized, but they can even save you from paying hefty baggage fees as shoppers claim the cubes work particularly well for cleverly fitting all your clothes and accessories into your free cabin bag.
