Quick answer: A medium zip pouch with movable dividers is the best starting point. Add a slim cable roll only if you routinely switch between a day bag and carry-on.
Why modular beats one giant pouch
Large organizers invite permanent clutter. Smaller modules let you leave the international adapter, camera batteries or repair tools behind when the job does not need them.
The three-module system
Power module
Start with a compact charger selected by its per-port power allocation, then add the destination adapter and shortest useful cables. Use elastic loops for cables and a padded pocket for the charger.

Portable SSD, card reader, flash drive and data-rated cables. Padding and zipper protection matter more here than maximum capacity.
Browse padded pouchesWork module
Mouse, presentation remote, earbuds and small adapters. A clamshell design makes this module useful as a desk caddy after arrival.

- Bright interior fabric makes small black adapters easier to spot.
- Movable dividers handle changing kits better than fixed elastic grids.
- YKK-style zippers and reinforced handles matter when the pouch is fully loaded.
- A pouch should open flat without spilling its contents.
