Worked well enough on my trip to Paraguay!

I got mine from Daiso, which is a huge Japanese chain selling stuff for under $2. They have branches in many countries. If there isn’t one where you live, you can probably find mesh bags at dollar stores or similar places.

Where do you buy mesh bags like that? That sounds perfect.

I think packing cubes are not worth their weight if you are an ultra light traveler. Those 3-4ozs per cube very quickly adds up to some serious weight. I use mesh/polyester drawstring bags and mesh zip pouches to organize my clothes and stuff. They weight around 0.7oz (20grams), come in bright, easily identifiable colors, and are easy to pack and unpack. Of course I’m speaking as an ultralight traveler.

The packing cubes don’t weigh much and don’t really take up any space. I did a hands on post on some packing cube here: http://thesavvybackpacker.com/eagle-creek-pack-it-specter-review/

Would you say the usefulness of them outweighs the extra space and weight they take up in your bag?
