1. Waterproof travel bag

18 custom travel accessories for your online store 1

For the best journeys, no matter what the weather is. This travel bag is not only splash-proof, but the high-grade PU leather renders it 100% waterproof. Whether you have that ‘Ross Geller moment’ when all your complimentary toiletries spill all over the contents of the bag, or you travel in high-precipitation conditions, this bag has got you covered inside and out.

Forget about dull and boring backpacks with zero personality; create a line of AOP (all-over-print) travel bags that exude style and character – the PU leather will make your designs shine and stay in place for years to come.

2. Suitcases

Whether for business or pleasure, travelers always look for rolling luggage to transport their necessities with ease. Extend your style all the way from your home to the airport and beyond with our custom suitcase

Available in three versatile sizes – from cabin to checked-in – for a flight or a weekend road trip, our suitcase allows bringing just the right amount of clothes no matter the occasion, and will even have plenty of room for other customized travel accessories like a toiletry bag and a laptop sleeve. Add gorgeous photos, your digital artwork, or maybe just initials in stunning typeface, and it will be easy to spot among other suitcases. 

The 360° swivel wheels make portability effortless, and an adjustable telescopic handle ensures comfort and ease. Our custom suitcase has many internal compartments to keep your things organized. The TSA-approved safety lock system will hold your undies for your eyes only.

3. Weekender bag

A weekender bag may just be the perfect travel accessory for those who like to travel unencumbered and ready for anything. Bigger than an average backpack but smaller than a suitcase, a weekender bag is the ideal hold-all size for a weekend away, or come summer, it can be used as the perfect beach bag to hold all your fun in the sun essentials. A weekender bag is humble enough in size to carry on a flight, yet adequately spacious to hold all your weekend necessities – like our canvas weekend bag.

The 100% spun polyester will help retain its shape and ensure that your printed design stays on for years.

4. Fanny pack

The Best-Selling Print-On-Demand Products - Fanny Pack

Presumably the oldest fashion trend in the world, the bum bag or fanny pack first appeared about five thousand years ago as a vital part of the wardrobe of Ötzi – the Iceman – whose mummified remains were discovered in the Ötzal Alps glacier ice. And the fanny pack was still on him. 

Five thousand years later, these babies are back. This simple belt bag is as practical as they come when one needs to hold their essentials close. 

Today, we have options to make this classic piece of accessory trendier by wearing it as a cross-body bag, thus keeping your essentials closer to your heart. Ever since the fanny pack’s return to the spotlight a couple of years ago, bum bags have become one of the best-selling travel products. Equally good for carrying doggy treats while walking your furry barker or as music festival gear, custom fanny packs are definitely worth adding to your online store.

5. Toiletry bag

Carrying essential travel must-haves, like toothbrush and paste, shampoos, makeup, and other products can become a burden without a proper receptacle. This is where our old-school satchel-style toiletry bag comes in handy.

If you fear spilling liquids, worry no more as this gem of an accessory is liquid-proof and easy to clean, thanks to the sturdy polyester broadcloth material. 

Thanks to its modest price point (starting from just $15) and endless design possibilities, this is one of the easiest travel products to sell. The surface can be printed edge to edge in your amazing designs, appealing to all genders and needs. Use it to store makeup and toiletries while you travel, or as a first aid kit while at home.

6. Accessory pouch

18 custom travel accessories for your online store 5

Well-organized travelers simply will not leave their homes without an accessory pouch that stores all the small items like earplugs, earphones, charging cables, and other things that might come in handy while on a plane or in the car. 

Other ways to use a custom accessory pouch:

  • As a snack pouch for those hungry moments (don’t mind the crummies and spills, as it’s washable)
  • If you’re an avid postcard sender (people love you for that!), keep all your envelopes, postcards, and stamps in one place
  • As a toy pouch for your little angel’s travel entertainment needs

One of the best things about this travel accessory is its versatility. Whether your customers use it as a purse, diaper bag, or first aid kit, this pouch is fun and easy to design, and its polyester fabric will guarantee that your artwork stays in place for years. 

7. Custom backpack

Cater to your customers by adding a custom backpack to your store. This lightweight storage solution has adjustable straps, making it comfortable to carry all backpacking travel essentials. 

A tropical print featuring palm trees and pineapples would make it festive and fabulous.

Backpacks are available in all kinds of designs these days, so feel free to choose something a little eccentric. You might find customers have an appetite for food-themed prints based on sushi or sweets, for example. Yum!

8. Passport wallet

18 custom travel accessories for your online store 7

The best passport wallets make it easy to keep track of all the travel essentials, ranging from a passport to credit cards and even some modern-day necessities like vaccination cards. Our passport wallet comes with various compartments to hold them all. Stash your cash and hang it around your neck to always have it on you without needing to dig through your luggage at the last minute. 

This simple yet classic design is fun to design and comes at a very modest price of just $6.90 (for Printify Premium subscribers).

9. Metal bluetooth speaker and wireless charging pad

18 custom travel accessories for your online store 8

When it comes to tech travel accessories, they don’t come more convenient than this metal Bluetooth Speaker and wireless charging pad.  

It’s easily transported and easily charged, but still provides premium sound quality. This makes it perfect for soundtracking beach barbecues or getting a pool party started. All your customers will need is their playlist. 

The coolest thing is that this product can be customized. It would make sense to take design inspiration from music and give your customers a cool new way to boast about their musical tastes. 

A speaker that said “keep calm and listen to indie rock” would undoubtedly attract hipsters. Techno-heads would surely love to see “too blessed to be stressed (and techno obsessed)” emblazoned on their speaker. 

The speaker is small but powerful, making it one of the best travel-size products for music lovers. 

Other tech items also deserve attention. Where would we be without our trusty cellphone on vacation? We need those digital maps to navigate and those social media platforms to share our experiences! 

That means we need to keep our phones protected using specially designed travel accessories.

10. Blackwater outdoor bluetooth speaker

18 custom travel accessories for your online store 9

The rugged and tough-looking customizable Blackwater Outdoor Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker is the perfect companion on any adventure. It is small enough to carry anywhere. With a carabiner clip, it easily attaches to a backpack or belt loop for increased portability. 

But don’t let its itty bitty size fool you; this 3W speaker is loud enough to throw a small party. It also has an IPX6 waterproof rating, which renders it perfect for outdoor gatherings.

But did you catch the fact that it’s customizable? The frontal grill can be printed with your designs, as long as you keep the patterns big enough not to lose anything in the tiny holes.

11. Luggage tags

18 custom travel accessories for your online store 10

A baggage claim carousel can give even the most seasoned traveler une petite attaque d’anxiété. Will they be able to spot their bag in this moving serpent of dark suitcases, or will they end up grabbing someone else’s bag, thus getting the good old stink eye? Naturally, as with most things in life, the solution to this situation is straightforward and obvious: a custom luggage tag. 

Waiting by the luggage claim is painless when you know exactly what to look for. There it is, a brightly-colored label attached to the suitcase, screaming your name. With Printify’s glossy plastic baggage tags, you can liven up your eCommerce store. Our tags come in two classic shapes, rectangle and circle, so that you can print virtually anything on them. Go with floral patterns to appeal to feminine travelers, or choose your own direction.

12. Beach towels

18 custom travel accessories for your online store 11

An unexpected guest in the list of custom travel accessories. Since beach towels are made from either polyester or cotton-poly blend and are thinner than standard bath towels, they dry a lot faster. This means it’s a perfect travel buddy for the beachfront or the gym, since people tend to need a fast-drying towel to avoid dragging around a heavy, wet one, especially when it’s a pre-work gym session.

Our beautiful custom beach towels come in three versatile sizes and are made of 100% polyester, making them extra fast-drying and lightweight. Polyester also means your designs will stand out like crazy – bright, vivid, and fade-proof, even after hours in the sun and many wash cycles. Take it to the beach or the gym, or use it at home when you’ve skipped laundry day.

13. Laptop sleeve

18 custom travel accessories for your online store 12

You could add an animal print to this laptop sleeve. Many of us work remotely these days, which means we might choose to take our computer on vacation with us. A wacky design will make working-from-holiday feel much more fun. 

People who live and work all over the world are often referred to as digital nomads. This concept could inspire a custom design, too. For example, you could incorporate a map or a suitcase illustration. 

Speaking of suitcases, do you remember old-school suitcases covered in travel stickers? Maybe you’ve only seen them in black and white movies. That’s when travel was very exclusive and travel accessories were really swanky.

When paired with your eye-catching designs, they can become a focal point of one’s traveling outfit. Everyone likes to feel special. This is, of course, best achieved with the help of a custom item.
