Osprey Ultralight Travel Packing Cube Set, Blue

They seem to be well made and of good quality, but, they're expensive for what they are really - I'm hoping they turn out to be a good investment over time and they last a long time. That said, so far, these have been really useful on a few recent trips, and its amazing what a difference they make to my packing! I feel like I'm able to organise my suitcase so much better than before, and fit more clothes in the same space. The handles are really useful for pulling them out and the material they've been made with makes them slide out easily. I wish they made these in more sizes though, especially some larger sizes than those currently offered. This pack of 3 isn't really enough for a trip if you want all your clothing organised, so I ended up ordering another set of these, plus a couple more individual ones. Once you've got a few of them of the same size, there's also no way to tell them apart due to not being able to see what's inside / no indication on their contents and no labels (I guess you could stick something to them?).

ch habe den Osprey Ultralight Packing Cube (Large) auf mehreren Reisen mit Rucksack und Rollkoffer im Einsatz – und er hat mich überzeugt. Besonders praktisch ist das extrem geringe Gewicht: Ich merke kaum, dass der Cube überhaupt da ist, obwohl er viel Platz bietet.Das Material fühlt sich dennoch robust an. Ich habe das Ding randvoll gestopft – und es hält. Kein Riss, kein Zug, und selbst nach intensiver Nutzung sieht es aus wie neu. Die Reißverschlüsse funktionieren zuverlässig, auch wenn der Cube sehr voll ist.Die Orientierung erleichtert mir die gute Größe: Pullover, Hosen oder mehrere T‑Shirts passen in den Cube und lassen sich leicht einpacken und wiederfinden. So spare ich morgens Zeit bei der Suche im Rucksack.Fazit:Ein vielseitiger und wohl langlebiger Reisebegleiter, der durch Leichtigkeit und praktisches Handling punktet – für mich ein echter Gewinn auf dem Weg zu stressfreiem Packen.

I’ve been using the Osprey Ultralight Travel Packing Cube Set for several months on camping trips, trekking weekends, and long-distance travel, mainly inside technical backpacks ranging from 25L daypacks to 50L trekking packs. After multiple trips, these cubes became one of the most useful organization systems I carry.What makes this set stand out is how efficiently it works inside performance-oriented backpacks where every centimeter matters. Unlike bulkier packing cubes, these are genuinely ultralight and low-profile, so they do not waste internal volume or create awkward dead space inside the pack.For a 25L setup, I typically use:Small cube for base layers, socks, and thermal accessoriesMedium cube for activewear or insulated layersLarge cube for camp clothing or compact sleeping gearInside a 50L backpack, they become even more effective because they create modular load zones. I can separate dry clothing, sleep system layers, cooking accessories, and weather gear without constantly unpacking the entire bag at camp. During multi-day hikes and overland travel, that level of organization saves an enormous amount of time.The fabric is thinner than traditional travel cubes, but that is intentional. Osprey clearly designed these for weight-conscious travelers and hikers rather than rigid suitcase organization. Despite the lightweight material, mine have handled repeated compression, rough campsite packing, and constant friction inside technical packs without tearing or zipper failure.Another detail I appreciate is how smoothly they compress soft goods. Because the material remains flexible instead of overly structured, the cubes adapt naturally to irregular backpack shapes and curved back panels. This is especially useful in alpine-style or ultralight backpacking setups where pack geometry matters.The zippers are reliable, lightweight, and easy to operate even with cold hands in outdoor conditions. The grab handles also make transitions at campsites or hostels very efficient when pulling specific gear quickly from deep inside a backpack.Pros:Extremely lightweightExcellent space optimizationIdeal for technical backpacksFlexible structure adapts well to pack shapeDurable enough for repeated outdoor useGreat color visibility inside dark packsCons:Not waterproofMinimal structure may not appeal to suitcase travelers wanting rigidityFor anyone building a clean, efficient backpacking or camping system, these cubes are absolutely worth it. They bring structure to minimalist travel without adding unnecessary weight, which is exactly what good outdoor gear should do.

très bien pour voyager, pratique.

Bought when money off but lovely colour. Quite small but nice material. May have to buy another large one
