With everything you have to go through to travel by air these days — determining how many ounces of liquid you’ve got, making sure your laptop can power up if need be — dealing with tangled cords is one hassle you’ll be happy to skip. It’s easier said than done though, between chargers, power cords, ear buds and more. That’s why we love these cord tacos from This is Ground ($29.95 for a set of five on Amazon).

 

Tacos? Well, yes. These variously sized leather circles snap together, allowing you to easily bundle cords for all kinds of gadgets and gizmos — they stay perfectly neat, while still allowing you to see what’s what. They look like little tacos, with your cords as the filling, and it takes all of two seconds to bundle up your cord and get on with your travels. True, it’s not exactly delicious, but these are definitely convenient — no more puzzling out what in the world happened to your ear buds while they were rolling around in the bottom of your bag. With this set you get three different colors, too, so if you’re with a friend or partner, that’s an easy way to split them up. Perhaps best of all, these handmade leather cord tacos are designed and made right here in the United States.
