They do the job nicely. Resistant and light. Goes very well with the matador 35l backpack.
Three cubes. Everything in your bag finally has a place.
Best For: Anyone who packs a bag, then can't find a thing in it.
- Three sizes, one set - 8 L, 5.5 L and 3 L cubes. 16.5 L in total.
- Pack it like a bucket - the top opens wide, so gear drops straight in.
- Squash it flat - compression straps pull each cube down once it's zipped.
- See what's in there - the high-vis interior lights up everything inside.
- Grab one and go - external handles and tether points on every cube.
- Rain stays out - waterproof fabric plus sealing zippers, on all three.
- Zippers that don't snag - #5 DuraGlide(TM) sealing zippers, co-engineered by Matador and Zoom.
- You barely feel them - 260 g for the whole set.
*Pick your colour: Black, Juniper, or Garnet.
Picture this: 6 AM check-in, and your clean shirt is at the bottom.
Pull one cube, not the whole bag. - Clothes in the 8 L. Shoes in the 5.5 L. Cables in the 3 L.
Built for people who live out of a bag. - Weekenders, digital nomads, parents packing for two, gym-to-office commuters.
The old way was dig, unpack, repack. - You emptied the whole bag on the hotel bed to find one thing.
Now it's grab-and-go. - Cinch the straps. Drop the cube in your pack, or carry it by the handle.

Always a joy to receive a Matador package at my doorstep. Best travel gear EVER! Especially love the gear cube set with the tightening straps!
These are perfect for keeping your clothing and gear organized. The compression straps are great for keeping everything tight to optimize space when packing!
The Gear Cube Set has completely changed the way I pack. The different sizes make it easy to separate clothing and accessories while maximizing space in my backpack, and the compression feature helps keep everything neat throughout my trip. They're simple, well-made, and something I now bring every time I travel.
The new Gear Cubes are incredibly well designed and make organizing camera gear and travel essentials simple. I really like the clean aesthetic and rich Garnet color, and they feel like a natural addition to my travel setup. They’re going to make packing for filming trips much more efficient.
Excellent Product. Well-made, useful & versatile. The packs run a bit small, considering the list price. More variety in size choices would be helpful, too - perhaps three-packs in all one size, or a choice of mix-and-match sets.
Great design and love the ability to quickly sinch it down
Love these bags. I bought them because they were on sale and didn’t know exactly what I needed them for but I am using them for food storage while out climbing, supplements when camping and small items I don’t want to loose. I need another 3 pack!!
We absolutely love them! I also bought a set for my wife. We travel in rugged conditions throughout the Year and these hold up!
Sleek and modern design. Fits 5 tshirts with the large bag. It compresses down well
Love these packing cubes for tech, accessories, and rolled items. Love these packing cubes for non-flat/folded use. These are great for gear like electronic tech or accessories, underwear, rolled tshirts, etc. love the handles on them and the zippers are easy. I have 2 sets of these And use them all the time for travel, along with other packing cubes to hold flat folded items.
Excellent take on packing cubes, I find these much more sleek and sturdy than most packing cubes. I feel they work better than packing cubes by using the strap synch to compress, instead of a zipper which can get caught on things. I no longer have to sit on my cube it to get the zipper right. With Matador's cubes I just synch and go! Plus they look so good and fit wonderfully in my bag!
Best Cubes. I bought these to go with the GlobeRider 35. They fit perfectly inside and I did use the compression to keep them tidy. I used the larger one for collared shirts, the medium for pants, and the smaller for my unmentionables. great system!
Bye-bye packing cubes, hello gear cubes. These gear cubes are really well designed and built. I like how they actually have a bit of structure, making it more of a "portable clothes drawer" -- which is exactly how I use them. Tack on the smart compression cinches, and we have a winner. Bonus is that the 5L gear cube fits snugly into the bottom of my Refraction packable backpack, with either the 3.9L or 2.5L sitting on top, making this set of Matador equipment a nice combo for one-bagging.
Loving Matador’s products! All of them
High quality fabrics and excellent handles. Colorway is perfect. Really love the sizes in the set…perfect for trips up to a week for incidentals.
Fit a lot of clothes and function as compression bags
Another excellebt product from Matador. Thoughtful construction and usefulness. I am hooked on all of their travel cubes. Very helpful for my weekly commutes!
Love the form factor and compression system. It is very complementary to traditional compression packing cube shapes. Beautiful, sturdy material. Great white color. Great zipper, pulls & straps Current setup is: 36L backpack, large Matador cube as shoe pouch, medium Matador cube to store tshirts and shirts, small Peak design packing cube for underwear I didn't have yet the opportunity to test the setup for more than a couple days trip though. Gonna test it with longer trips this summer
Our third set. I can't praise this product enough. This is my third set, and I can't imagine my travel routine without them, as someone who travels extensively, averaging around 220 flights a year, having reliable gear is non-negotiable. These have proven indispensable for nearly everything I do on the go. The durability is exceptional; they've withstood rigorous use and still perform flawlessly. Whether it's organizing my essentials, ensuring comfort during long hauls, or simply making my travel more efficient, they deliver every time. The design is sleek and functional, perfectly catering to a frequent traveler like myself. What sets them apart is not just their quality but also the thoughtfulness behind their features. Every detail seems crafted with the user in mind, which is rare to find. They’ve made my travel experiences smoother and more organized, reducing stress and enhancing convenience. I highly recommend them to anyone, especially fellow travelers. If you're looking for reliability, efficiency, and top-notch performance, look no further. These are, without a doubt, a game-changer for anyone constantly on the move.
Bought 2 more :). High quality and convenient.
Amazing Gear. These are great, that's all that can be said. Matador is one of my three go-to companies for travel gear now that I've field-tested their products. I'm going to be doing quite a bit of travel in Europe this coming winter, and will be purchasing another set of these guys. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Great cube set. Bag can fit a lot and makes organization easier. The zipper can be a bit finicky though.
Worked great. These worked great on my recent trip. Used the large bag for tshirts and got about 12 in it. The others fit my boxers and bathsuit(3 and two rash gaurds) in the smallest bag
Great set. Looking forward to using these on an upcoming trip. Love the unique shape. It makes it work for suitcases or backpacks. Very well made! Great zippers!
Josh is a hobo. Good sturdy convenient looks good like the handles and double zippers a little pricey but I don’t regret it hopefully life long product
Look useful. Haven’t used them yet but love the look and feel!
great cubes. Great packing cubes for any trip. I use them almost daily to carry my gym clothes to work and on weekend trips. Great for duffels or wide open bags. I used the cubes with my CPL 24 and GoRuck flight bag. Great value as a set.
More spacious than I expected!
The quality of these cubes are amazing. I love the carry handle and I honestly think these pack better than the traditional packing cubes. I can tell there was a lot of thought put into the design. I do wish they came in more colors!
love these packs. i use them in my seg 28, that keeps my clothes organized on the inside of the cubes in the main compartment, and than i use the backpacks various pouches to back any non clothing items in an organized manner in the deadspaces. Traveled with it for a a few weekends this way and now on a month long trip living just out of the backpack. no regrets
Brilliant. Finally some packing cubes worth taking
Perfect Organizers. Perfect supplement for organization while traveling.
It was ok. Quality is great. Materials used are great. The size though. I thought the cubes are big. But other than the cube size. Everything looks great
They’re perfect & well made. Matador really sets itself apart through high quality construction & finish.
I just love these cubes, very practical and at the same time space saver. Highly recommend them. High quality.
works as intended and fits perfectly with sleeping bag in my osprey farpoint 55
Love these - better than a cube in my opinion.
Gear Cubes. I bought this as a birthday gift for my husband, and he loves it! They are well-made and sturdy. I'm thinking of ordering another set for me.
These packing cubes are handy. Great features and light weight
