Never underestimate the importance of a needle and tread whilst traveling. This would fit easily anywhere within your luggage or in a pocket (though if you put it in a coat or pants pocket, be careful, of course).

"A travel sewing kit, much better alternative to the small spool-in-a-box version. Cotton thread to be used on all fabrics, 8 strands per color, 21 colors in total. Pull a thread out piece by piece."

One of these days I'll stop posting leather travel accessories that are more of a luxury than a necessity, but for now, they are catching my attention pretty much everywhere I go. I really like the black; too bad it has more of a feminine zipper pull or it could appeal to the masculine sort as well.

"A useful pouch goes from makeup bag to clutch. Italian lambskin hand-crafted into three versatile sizes. Perfect for traveling. Choose pewter, copper, black or gold."

Small Leather Zip Pouch, 8½" x 3¾", $75.00 Buy it here.
Medium, 8½" x 6½", $95.00, Buy it here.
Large, 11½" x 9", $125.00, Buy it here.

If you're the type to take your pet on trips, this would make packing a snap.

"Much like a canteen for campers, this simple design is a compact carrier for your pet’s food and water. Made of two halves, the Charlybox includes a two-liter canteen for fresh water, and two bowls for water and kibble. Snap the two halves together and set out for a day with your dog."

I don't know if you've ever been to a country where you feared your passport was in danger of sticky hands, but I sure have and I really really wished this was around then...(I think I got one of those thigh strap holders and it sucked, to put it bluntly. It was completely uncomfortable, which I should have expected, but I didn't know any better. I ended up sticking my passport in my camera bag, which increased my fears about getting mugged on the streets about ten thousand times. A sock would have been much better.)

Sure, they'll take up extra room in your carry on, but they'll look and sound a whole lot cooler than the free ones that come in a plastic bag.

"The Premium is a smooth looking headphone in perfect musical harmony - full, rich sound, coupled with imaculate clarity, depth and warmth. The Premiums will bring you perfect auditory balance. Their versatility and comfort makes them ideal for a long plane ride or short daily commute."

If you're the type to do yoga while traveling, this would make things much easier. A "deluxe" carrying bag is included.

"The travel mat is 24-inches by 68-inches by three-millimeters and rather than rolling it, you just fold it and go."
