The Best Travel Gear to Come Out of 2025 (So Far)

Sometimes it's worth it to invest in some gear that will make your travels easier and more comfortable. While there's a ton of travel gear out there already, there have been new product releases this year to consider adding to your travel arsenal.

Whether you’re planning a late summer getaway, or a winter trip to the tropics—or simply travel frequently for work and are looking to make the experience more pleasurable—here are some of the top travel products of 2025 that can help you get the best experience when away from home. 

Cushion Lab's Travel Pillow

Most trips really are about the destination, but that doesn’t mean that the journey has to be a pain in the neck. In fact, preventing neck pain is exactly what this travel pillow is intended to do. It rolls up to be a quarter of its original size in a pouch with a handle, and it plumps back up in a matter of seconds. This is a great option for both back and side sleepers, and the soft but supportive design keeps you properly aligned no matter where you lay your head. 

Satechi FindAll Collection

Just because you’re not the best at keeping track of your possessions doesn’t mean you should be deterred from traveling. It just means you might want to take a few more precautions to ensure that you can find the items you inevitably misplace. The Satechi FindAll collection includes everything from luggage tags, to glasses cases to keychains and more that are designed to be both practical items, and work seamlessly with Apple’s Find My Network. 

Away The Kids Carry On Collection

If you want your kids to be in charge of their own luggage, you'll want to supply them with something that is suited to their height, and will still protect their belongings from the demands of travel. This collection is durable and lightweight while still being scaled down for tiny humans. It also has 360 degree wheels for easy steering and can hold up to a week’s worth of kids clothing. 

Bellroy Lite Carry-On

Finding the perfect carry-on can be a challenge. You want something that will hold as much as possible without being too bulky—or exceeding size and weight restrictions. This soft-sided option has tons of storage pockets so you can place items like clothes and toiletries in the interior, while keeping your travel day essentials easily accessible in the exterior pockets. It also has three handles, so no matter where you’re picking it up you’ll have a solid hold.

Baggu Storage Bags

Baggu has skyrocketed in popularity in the past couple years, but while its purses and bags are some of the most popular items, you won’t want to overlook the packing cubes. Not only are these functional, but they come in a range of fun colors and patterns that change periodically—so you can always add a new set to your collection. They're also are made with recycled materials and ripstop nylon, so they're made sustainably and built to last. 

Anker Power Bank

When traveling, a dead phone isn't only inconvenient, but can pose a serious issue as everything from tickets to navigation to digital sign-ins are dependent on your phone. While you should always bring a charger, you may not always have the opportunity to plug in—so it’s best to have an alternative like a power bank. This one is incredibly lightweight and charges your devices quickly. Plus it has enough juice to fully charge your phone anywhere from 1.5 to 2 times. (Just make sure you don't pack it in your checked luggage.)

Samsonite Better Than Basic Weekender Bag

Rolling bags are great, but some of us prefer the throw-and-go simplicity of a duffle. This one is not only super cute, but also functional with a top portion that opens wide for easy access and a bottom compartment perfect for keeping shoes, dirty clothes, or anything else you want to keep separate from the rest of your contents. It also has a shoulder strap, two pockets, and a suitcase strap to keep it secure on top of a rolling bag. 

SONY Noise Cancelling Headphones

Just about everyone dreads a plane ride with a crying baby. Unfortunately that—and other unpleasant sounds—are a pretty unavoidable part of travel. But having a pair of effective noise cancelling headphones can be the key to a smooth and silent journey. These are a bit pricey, but are Sony’s most recent update. They not only look high end, but has 30-hour battery life, an adaptive microphone system, and the brand's fastest, and clearest noise cancellation to date.
