EULANT Compression Packing Cube Set: 3 Vacuum Bags + Shoe Bag for Waterproof, Airtight Packing
Product description
Quick overview
If you’re the type of traveller who wants a suitcase to stay organised and a bag to stay sealed, this EULANT compression packing cube set is built around two big ideas: saving space and keeping air (and water) at bay. On paper it pairs three vacuum-style compression bags with an IPX8 airtight zipper, plus a separate shoe bag for bulkier items. The whole set leans light and packable, which is usually what people need most for hand luggage and shorter trips.
That said, it’s not a magic shrink-wrapped solution. Vacuum compression depends on how well you remove air, and the zipper design is described as high-tension, so it can feel a little stubborn until you get used to it.
Key features that matter in day-to-day travel
What stands out most here is the combination of waterproof TPU coating (on the vacuum bags) and the IPX8 airtight zip. The brand also notes that this zip type is similar to what’s used for diving suits to help seal out water vapour and moisture. In practice, that’s the sort of protection you’d typically care about when packing items that don’t want to get damp—laundry, swimwear, or anything you’d rather keep separate.
You also get three sizes of compression bags: large, medium, and small. The idea is simple: put bulky clothing into the bag, roll it up to squeeze air out, or compress with a pump (the pump isn’t included, so you’d need to prepare one if you want faster results).
Finally, there’s a dedicated shoe bag (made of polyester with an ordinary zipper). That’s a small detail, but it helps because shoes tend to take up space and bring dirt into the mix.
What you actually get (sizes and materials)
The set includes four pieces in total: three vacuum compression packing bags plus one shoe bag.
- Large vacuum bag with IPX8 airtight zipper: 44.5×33.5×11cm, weighs 113g
- Medium vacuum bag with IPX8 airtight zipper: 34.5×33.5×11cm, weighs 95g
- Small vacuum bag with IPX8 airtight zipper: 27×21.5×8.2cm, weighs 45g
- Shoe bag: 40.5×31.5×10cm, weighs 50g
The three compression bags are made of nylon with a waterproof TPU coating. The shoe bag is polyester with a standard zipper.
Where it shines (and when it can fall short)
This is a strong fit if your main goal is to organise and compress clothing to make room in a suitcase or hand luggage. It’s also a sensible choice if you travel with items that you’d like kept drier and more protected from moisture—again, the IPX8 claim and water-resistance focus are clearly part of the appeal.
It may not suit you if you prefer very quick packing with minimal fiddling. Since the set uses vacuum-style compression, you’ll be thinking about rolling, sealing, and removing air. And there’s a genuine usability note: the brand says the airtight zipper can be a little hard to zip up, which is described as normal rather than a quality problem.
How to use it without frustration
A typical workflow looks like this: place clothing inside the appropriate vacuum bag, close the airtight zipper, then roll up the bag to push air out. If you want stronger compression, you can compress with a pump, but you’ll need to bring your own—nothing here mentions one being included.
For the zippers, the instructions include a practical caveat. If the zip feels stiff, that’s expected with this high-airtight design. The guidance is to zip all the way down for the best seal. There’s also a suggested trick: wiping the zipper with candles or cooking oil to make it smoother to pull up.

Care & maintenance
To keep the waterproof TPU layers from getting damaged, the guidance is to avoid machine washing and high-temperature washing. Don’t expose the bags to direct sunlight. Hand wash and air dry only, as instructed, which also helps reduce the risk of air leakage.
Final verdict
It’s worth considering if you want a compression packing setup for travel that focuses on space saving and sealed packing, and you’re happy to use the roll-and-seal method (or bring a pump if you want more powerful compression). The combination of IPX8-style airtight zips on the vacuum bags and separate storage for shoes is practical for trips where organisation and moisture protection matter.
It’s not the best choice if you dislike stiff zips or if you’re looking for the simplest packing solution with no extra steps. The set also explicitly relies on your technique for vacuum compression, so if you need guaranteed results regardless of handling, you may want to think twice.
Mini FAQ

No. The care instructions say not to machine wash, and to avoid high-temperature washing.
Are the vacuum bags waterproof?
They use nylon with a waterproof TPU coating, and the airtight zipper is described as waterproof with an IPX8 rating.
What’s the shoe bag for?
It’s included for shoes and other items that you may want kept separate. It’s made of polyester with an ordinary zipper.
