This year’s Travel Goods Show just wrapped up in Chicago. I, unfortunately couldn’t attend due to previous committments, but, I have been getting information about new products.
Every year, the TGA gives awards for new product innovation. The winners were:
First Place: The Thule Crossover line of bags. These are newly designed in all shapes and sizes.
Second Place: Shelves-To-Go A unique packing shelf system that collapses into your carry on bag, then is easily removed and hung up at your destination.
Third Place: The Powerbag
The website isn’t active yet but this is a high end ($180) checkpoint friendly laptop backpack with built in 6000maH power supply, USB, mini & micro USB, and Apple 30 pin connector. They claim the backpack can recharge a cell phone four times.
