How to Organize Your Metro Folio Kit for Work and Travel

Quick answer

Organize your Metro Folio Kit by dividing its flat, rigid compartments into zones for tech accessories, travel documents, and daily essentials. Use the QuickSnap™ system to attach it to your Metro Backpack or Duffel for seamless transitions between work and travel.

How to organize your Metro Folio Kit in 5 steps

1. 1. Sort items by thickness and use frequency: Place your thinnest, most-used items (phone, passport, boarding pass) on top. Stack thicker items (tablet, charger, notebook) below. This prevents the folio from bulging unevenly and keeps essentials accessible without digging. Common mistake: stuffing the folio with thick items on top makes it hard to close and strains the zipper.
2. 2. Use the interior slip pockets for documents: Slide your passport, ID, and boarding pass into the internal slip pockets. Keep a pen and a small notepad in the same zone so you can fill out customs forms without opening your main bag. Checkpoint: verify that your passport fits without bending the cover – the pockets are designed for flat documents.
3. 3. Secure tech accessories with a cable organizer: Wrap charging cables and earbuds in a small pouch or cable tie, then place them in one corner of the folio. This prevents tangles and keeps the flat profile intact. A slim power bank can sit next to the cables. Common mistake: loose cables create lumps and make it harder to slide the folio into a backpack pocket.
4. 4. Position your tablet or e-reader flat against the back: Slide your tablet or e-reader against the rigid back panel, screen facing inward. This protects the screen from pressure and keeps the device accessible when you unclip the folio from your bag. Checkpoint: if your tablet is larger than 8 inches, test that the folio closes flat – oversized devices may force the zipper.
5. 5. Attach the folio to your Metro Backpack or Duffel: Use the QuickSnap™ connectors to attach the folio to the interior loops of your Metro Backpack or Duffel. This keeps the folio secure during transit and lets you grab it quickly at airport security or when switching bags. Common mistake: attaching the folio too loosely can cause it to shift; snap both connectors firmly until you hear a click.
