I spend a lot of time on the road. And for each product I decide to lug around the globe, I need to make sure it's worth the weight and the space it'll occupy in my bag. As we grow the online store at AndySteves.com, I want to fill it only with the best and most useful products you can find for your next adventure. I figure I spend more time with this travel gear than most of their designers, so why not start some product reviews!
For the first round of travel gear reviews, we partnered up with some great brands timed with the launch of my second edition of Andy Steves' Europe: City-Hopping on a Budget. Here are the products I received to evaluate and review.

I'll be reviewing the highlights and drawbacks with each product and hopefully share some packing insights along the way. Generally, I won't even be sharing about products I don't like, since we've only got room for the best in our travel bags!
