Travel Accessories

When planning a trip, you're faced with a crucial question: what travel accessories are truly essential for a city break, a longer vacation, or a business trip? The answer, of course, depends on the type of getaway, but some elements are universally indispensable.

In this guide, we'll help you put together a complete set of travel essentials: from a suitcase or travel bag, to a backpack and a pouch, all the way to a passport holder, a toiletry bag, and small organizers. Every single item has its rightful place in a well-thought-out luggage system.

Among the must-haves for every traveler, we include a sturdy suitcase (like Crash Baggage) or a functional travel bag, an ergonomic backpack with compartments for electronics, a travel toiletry bag with multiple sections, and a pouch for documents and small items. These are the building blocks upon which you'll construct the rest of your kit. All the products mentioned in this article can be found in our online store, part of the offerings from various interior design and lifestyle brands.

Travel accessories are specialized products designed with comfort, order, and luggage security in mind. In practical terms, we're talking about specific categories: bags, suitcases, backpacks, passport holders, pouches, travel toiletry bags, and organizers. Each of these elements serves a distinct purpose, and together they form a cohesive system.

It's wise to plan your useful accessories according to the type of trip you're taking. A weekend city break calls for a different setup than a 7–14 day vacation, a business trip, or traveling with children. Modularity is key – the ability to easily adapt your kit to any situation.

A good set of accessories should stand the test of time, serving you for several seasons. It's worth investing in high-quality accessories made from durable materials: hard-shell suitcases resistant to impacts, waterproof fabrics for backpacks and bags with a density above 600D, and easy-to-clean interiors for toiletry bags. Further on, we'll present ready-made sets for various types of travelers, with specific product examples from our assortment, as well as small travel accessories that further simplify packing and luggage organization.

Choosing your main luggage is the first and most crucial decision. A Crash Baggage suitcase, a travel bag, or a backpack from brands like Lexon or Stackers? It all hinges on your mode of transport and the duration of your trip.

Suitcases – Modern hard-shell Crash Baggage suitcases stand out with their distinctive 'dented' design made from flexible polypropylene, which absorbs shocks during transit. Four 360-degree spinner wheels with ball bearings ensure effortless maneuvering through airports. Cabin-sized options are available, perfectly fitting most carry-on limits, as well as larger models for extended trips. A built-in TSA lock provides enhanced security against unauthorized access.

Travel Bags – Lightweight duffle bags and shoulder bags are perfect for car or train journeys. Weighing less than 1 kg, they fold down to palm-size and feature wide, adjustable shoulder straps (5–7 cm) with padding for even weight distribution. Thanks to their flexible shape, they can accommodate irregular items like shoes or jackets with ease.

Backpacks – Lexon and Stackers models offer ergonomic solutions with adjustable, ventilated shoulder straps, padded laptop compartments (up to 16 inches), and pockets for electronics and documents. They work wonderfully as both carry-on luggage for flights and as your everyday backpack at your destination. When choosing a size, always double-check the baggage requirements of your specific airline.

How to Choose Your Main Bag or Suitcase Based on Your Trip Type?

• 3-day City Break by Plane – The optimal combination is a Crash Baggage cabin suitcase plus a Lexon backpack. The cabin bag fits within the 10 kg limit of most carriers, while the backpack serves as your personal item on board and your daily companion at your destination.
• 10-day Car Vacation – Opt for a large Crash Baggage suitcase plus a Hay bag for quick access to essentials during stops. No weight restrictions mean you can pack more without extra fees.
• Week-long Business Trip by Train – A medium-sized suitcase plus an ergonomic Stackers backpack with a laptop pocket. This setup ensures mobility on platforms and a professional look for meetings.

It's a good idea to coordinate the colors and style of your luggage – a black Crash Baggage suitcase with a black Lexon backpack and a matching LOQI pouch creates a cohesive, aesthetically pleasing set. Before you set off, make sure to check the zippers, the condition of the wheels, and the water resistance of the materials.

Keeping your documents safe and sound is the key to a stress-free journey. Well-chosen cases and pouches allow you to keep your passport, ID, tickets, and cards always at your fingertips, while also protecting them from theft.

Passport holders offer slots for a standard-sized passport, 4–6 cards, a boarding pass, and sometimes a small pocket for cash. Models with RFID protection block 99% of unauthorized scans of payment cards from up to 10 cm away. Their slim design (approx. 10x15 cm) fits perfectly into an inner jacket pocket – an excellent way to keep your valuables secure.

LOQI pouches and fanny packs are lightweight (under 100g), colorful, and foldable accessories that prove invaluable at the airport, while sightseeing, or in crowded places. Worn on the front of your body, they significantly reduce the risk of pickpocketing. These practical accessories simplify packing and speed up security checks.

Mini-tip: Always keep your passport in a zippered, internal backpack pocket or under your jacket, never in your back trouser pocket. Stylistically, you can match your passport holder and pouch to the pattern of your bag or backpack, creating a cohesive travel set.

How to Assemble a 'Secure Document Kit' for Your Flight?

Imagine flying: you complete online check-in via an app with a QR code, at security, you quickly pull out your passport holder with documents and a small LOQI pouch with cards and cash, and boarding proceeds smoothly thanks to your well-thought-out system.

Essential accessories include a passport holder (for tickets and boarding pass), a LOQI pouch for cards and small change, and a backpack with a hidden internal pocket for backup documents. For longer trips to more exotic destinations, it's wise to prepare scanned copies of your documents and keep them in a separate toiletry bag pocket or an electronics case – as a backup in case the originals go missing.

Properly chosen small accessories reduce stress in case of delays (on average, 25% of flights in Europe are delayed by more than 30 minutes), customs checks, or the sudden need to quickly locate documents.

A travel toiletry bag is one of those unsung heroes that can make or break the comfort of your entire trip. A well-chosen one keeps your cosmetics in order and ensures compliance with airline carry-on regulations.

Stackers toiletry bags are multi-compartment organizers featuring silicone dividers, a hook for hanging in a hotel bathroom, and a waterproof interior that's a breeze to clean with soap and water. Sturdy zippers protect the contents, and a thoughtful division allows you to categorize products with ease.

When flying, remember to decant liquids into containers of 100 ml or less before departure. It's a smart move to divide your cosmetics into daily essentials (brush, toothpaste, micellar gel) and a mini first-aid kit (band-aids, basic medications, a small bottle of hydrogen peroxide).

Minimalist style – one compact Stackers toiletry bag holding just the essentials. Maximally organized style – a large toiletry bag plus additional small LOQI pouches for categories like makeup, hygiene, and first aid.

In hot climates, keep your toiletry bag away from direct sunlight, especially during summer car trips – high temperatures above 40°C can degrade emulsions and creams.

Toiletry Bags for a City Break, Vacation, and Business Trip – Three Different Sets

• Weekend in the City – A Stackers toiletry bag containing a mini deodorant, 100 ml micellar gel, and a folding toothbrush. A minimalist approach for short trips where every gram counts.
• 2-Week Vacation – Full division with LOQI pouches: one for liquids, another for dry products and tools like brushes or toothbrushes. The Stackers toiletry bag serves as the organizational hub, with space for jewelry and valuables.
• Business Trip – A grooming kit (mini perfume, shaving accessories), discreet makeup, or quick refresh products before a meeting. All in a compact form that fits neatly into a business backpack.

Prepare your own mini checklist on your phone that you can use before every trip – it makes packing quicker and more systematic.

Pouches, lightweight bags, and small LOQI cases are ingenious gadgets that help you keep your suitcase or backpack tidy. They're light (50–200g), foldable, and reusable, making them a cost-effective choice.

LOQI bags, available in various sizes (S/M/L, 5–20L), serve a multitude of functions: a spare shopping bag for a city break, a laundry bag for dirty clothes or underwear, or an extra layer of organization within your suitcase. Once you're back home, they're perfect for the gym or everyday errands.

LOQI pouches are ideal for cables, chargers, small electronics, cosmetics, or documents. Practical tip: Use colors and patterns to code the contents – blue for electronics, yellow for your first-aid kit, and a patterned one for cosmetics. This can shave off precious minutes when you're rummaging through your luggage.

For family travel, each person can have their own set of pouches in a different pattern – making it easy to distinguish children's items from adults'. These products protect items from dirt and moisture and are available in a wide array of colors and patterns.

Step-by-Step Suitcase Organization Using Pouches and a Toiletry Bag

Here's a guide to packing a medium-sized suitcase for a week-long trip. Start by laying out all your essentials and assigning them to categories.

The first LOQI pouch is for underwear – roll each item to save up to 30% of space. The second pouch is for cables and electronics – utilize dedicated compartments. The third is for your first-aid kit – band-aids, medications, sunscreen. Place your Stackers toiletry bag with cosmetics centrally.

Arrange clothing in layers around these items. Place heavier items like shoes closer to the wheels of your Crash Baggage suitcase to enhance carrying comfort and stability. Leave the top section for a lightweight LOQI bag, which you can easily remove if you need to repack your luggage at security.

Beyond your main suitcase, you'll need something for everyday use – a comfortable backpack, a small city bag, or a fanny pack. These additions will make traveling more convenient, come rain or shine.

Lexon backpacks are the go-to solution for those traveling with a laptop and electronics. Their functionality includes organization for cables, chargers, documents, and a secure laptop pocket with EVA foam. They're suitable as carry-on luggage for flights and for daily commutes, offering a guarantee of quality craftsmanship.

Stackers backpacks and bags fit a business-casual style – perfect for work, conferences, and exploring the city after hours. Elegant design meets practical solutions in these versatile pieces.

Fanny packs and small pouches worn close to the body (including LOQI) are the ideal secure solution for documents, your phone, and hotel key during intense sightseeing. In crowded places and on public transport, they offer more effective protection against theft than standard pockets.

When choosing, pay attention to adjustable straps, ventilated backs (reducing sweat by 25%), and the ability to slide the backpack onto a suitcase handle, which significantly enhances comfort during long flights and layovers.

One Backpack for Everything – How to Choose a Multi-Purpose Model?

An ideal backpack accommodates a typical 15-inch laptop, has a document compartment, a water bottle pocket, a hidden pocket for valuables, and visually complements your suitcase or bag.

Look for models with a minimalist design, waterproof material (IPX4), and sturdy zippers. You'll find these features in the backpacks available in our online store.

For example: someone flies with a Lexon backpack as carry-on luggage. Upon arrival, the same backpack serves as their daily companion for business meetings and sightseeing – zero repacking, maximum convenience. A well-chosen backpack reduces the number of bags needed, simplifies packing, and lowers luggage weight.

1. Step 1: Main Luggage – Choose a Crash Baggage suitcase or a travel bag. Guiding questions: Are you flying with baggage restrictions? Do you prefer hard-shell protection or the flexibility of a soft bag?
2. Step 2: Backpack – Select a Lexon or Stackers model. Are you bringing a laptop? Do you need the backpack for work after your return?
3. Step 3: Toiletry Bag – Pick a Stackers with the appropriate number of compartments. Do you prefer minimalism, or perfectly divided categories?
4. Step 4: Cases and Pouches – Add a passport holder and LOQI pouches. Traveling with children? Use different patterns for easy identification.
5. Step 5: Organizers – Supplement with additional covers for electronics, jewelry, or a first-aid kit, as needed.

There's no one-size-fits-all perfect set – it's worth tailoring your accessories to your own travel style, frequency of trips, and priorities: comfort, minimalism, security, or lifestyle aesthetics. Suitcase covers, luggage tags, or padlocks are additional elements that can expand your basic kit.
