Cadence Parcel Medium Clear Toiletry Kit
A nicer quart bag for security, but a zip bag does the same job
A 1-quart TSA-size clear toiletry kit in recycled TPU with welded seams and a zipperless magnetic closure. It folds open into a tray and weighs about 6.4 oz.
Our take
Here's the thing about liquids bags. TSA doesn't care how nice yours is. It just has to be clear, quart-size and closed. This kit is all of that, in recycled TPU with welded seams, so there's no stitching to leak and no zipper to snag.
Where it earns something is around the checkpoint and after. The magnetic closure opens fast in the security line, and the whole thing folds open into a tray on a small hotel counter. It also weighs about 6.4 oz, which is a lot more than a thin zip bag.
It's a pricey answer to a simple problem, and its ratings trail most travel basics. If you fly all the time and want the tray, fine. Everyone else, grab a clear zip bag and keep the money for something that changes your trip.
Who it’s for
Frequent flyers who want a tougher quart bag that also works as a tray on a cramped hotel bathroom counter.
Skip it if
Skip it if your quart bag only matters for the two minutes at security. A basic clear zip bag works just as well.
Cadence Parcel Medium Clear Toiletry Kit: questions people ask
Does a toiletry bag have to be clear for TSA?
TSA wants liquids in one clear, quart-size bag. Any clear quart bag that closes does the job.
Do I have to take my liquids bag out at security?
At many US checkpoints, yes, unless you have TSA PreCheck or the lane has newer scanners. Keep it near the top of your bag either way so you're not digging for it.
Is TPU better than a regular plastic zip bag?
TPU is thicker and tougher than a thin zip bag, so it lasts many trips. It's also heavier and costs more.
