Light, durable and efficient, the Gossamer Gear Compression Cube Half keeps clothing organised while saving pack space.
Gossamer Gear says:
Whether you're streamlining your packing, separating outfits, or making room for last-minute additions, the Compression Cubes are your go-to travel tool. Fit two full-size compression cubes perfectly in the main compartment of the Aero Jet or one in the Vagabond Jet, or a half compression cube for smaller organization. Its zipper shrinks the cube to nearly half its size, helping you maximize every inch of your carry-on. And with custom mesh panels, you can see what’s inside at a glance—no unzipping needed.
Our Verdict
At 78g with a 6L capacity, it strikes a good balance between weight and function. The recycled Robic nylon feels robust, and the mesh lid gives visibility and airflow for fabrics that need to breathe. A side handle makes it easy to pull out of a tightly packed bag.
The two-zip system is effective: one for access, the other for compressing depth from about 9.5cm to 3.8cm. This works best with firm but not overstuffed loads, keeping the cube’s shape tidy and the seams under less strain. Materials and stitching hold up well, and the pulls are easy to grip even with cold hands.
For streamlining clothing and soft kit, it offers a reliable and straightforward solution that makes better use of limited pack volume.
