Stuff your shoes - Packing tip

Make use of the "dead space" within shoes by packing underwear, socks, or anything small inside them.

Shoes are bulky and take up precious suitcase space. However, this space shouldn't be lost! To conserve even more space, chose underwear and socks made with lightweight fabric. Remember to roll underwear and socks tightly before placing them inside the shoe.

Also consider stuffing other smallish items -- like batteries, phone charging cables, spare camera lenses, etc. -- inside the shoe until it's full.
