Travel Accessory Features

Pack Smart

Knack’s compression packing cubes and compression shoe bags maximize your space with ease. Load them up and compress them down so you can fit more of your trip essentials in one bag.
Travel Comfortably

Knack Packs utilize removable backpack shoulder straps, sternum straps, and waist straps to give you extra stability and comfort when you need it and sleeker style when you don’t.
Lock Your Gear

Keep your stuff secure by locking your bag with a TSA-approved lock so your bag, or your lock, isn’t damaged in case of a TSA search.

About Knack

Finally, say goodbye to the hassle of juggling multiple bags! Knack sprang from a simple observation that too many people were carrying too many bags at the same time, leading to an epidemic of overloaded shoulders and cluttered lives.

We pulled together a passionate group of frequent travelers and bag enthusiasts (from Tumi, Coach, North Face, Samsonite, and eBags) and created a revolutionary expandable backpack that transitions as easily from work to working out as it does from a client meeting to a weekend with friends. We called this backpack a Knack Pack and it was the first everyday bag that’s clever enough to replace two.

While Knack today is more than just backpacks, each of our products’ innovative designs and thoughtful features continues to help you effortlessly carry everything you need, while keeping you organized and hands-free at the same time. Experience the difference that Knack makes in every journey.

Testimonials

I highly recommend all of the accessories for the Knack Packs bag. They were made to make your life easier. Specifically, the Large Shoe Bag.
Anthony S. | Large Compressible Shoe

I have many "cube" type cases from other manufactures. The ones you make are better, because they custom fit your backpacks! They are much deeper than I thought they would be (so they hold more) but the compression zipper makes them thin enough to take up very little space.
Jeff F. | Cube Bundles

I paired a medium packing cube with a large one to store in my Medium Knack Pack's suitcase compartment - both packing cubes are superb. The large one had my regular clothing stored in it and the medium one had 4 pairs of socks and 4 boxer briefs, with room to spare. Durable, lightweight and solid compression feature.

What travel accessories help maximize space in a carry-on backpack?

Compression packing cubes are one of the easiest ways to maximize space in a carry-on backpack. Knack’s compression packing cubes compress clothing and essentials to help you fit more into your bag while keeping everything organized.

How important is a separate shoe compartment when traveling?
