Best packing cubes for Rimowa Cabin Original
Anyone want to share their experience and opinions on the best packing cubes that are sized correctly for a Rimowa Cabin Original?
I prefer compression cubes and I like the idea of ones that have different compartments for clean and dirty clothes:
Ones on my radar:
Eagle Creek Pack it Compression set
Flight 001 Spacepak
Anyone used them in the same case as mine? Which fits better?
OR any others you recommend?
Thanks

I have the Cabin Plus and use the Eagle Creek system. I augment with a waterproof laundry bag (good for sweaty workout clothes). They should all work.
BTW - check the thread just eight lines down....

I ended up getting the Eagle Creek compression bags.
You need to to be careful when buying and making sure you are buying the compression type.
Used a few times and they fit well. I bought a large and a medium.

I can very much endorse the Peak Design Packing cubes. I'm surprised they are so high quality and so well made - inside out. Stylish too. Far better quality than the LVMH garbage Alesandre, later Hugues put out. The only thing the current Rimowa CEO did that I like was the lifetime warranty. Now if they could only bring back the center lock and the bag holder.
Peak Design has boutiques in San Francisco and New York, naturally. You won't find anything so well made in Europe. Check them out for yourself.
Specifically I use 1 medium and 2 small for the cabin, and I also use this for the top compartment of the Trunk.
I ended up getting a bunch of stuff from their store. Several cubes. The bags are great too - esp if you own cameras. Recommend enthusiastically. A little high ( more than eagle creek/ away) on the price but compared the LVMH garage cubes from Rimowa, a bargain and far better quality / make.
Have you seen what Rimowa wants for a stupid luggage belt? Play with ones vanity it will lead to insanity I always say.
