Travel gear that resists theft and water might be a great opportunity for Zazzle. The theft-resistant features include RFID-blocking (so credit cards, passports, etc can't be scanned), zippers that lock together, cut-resistant straps and bag, and so on. These features can appear in sling bags (on one shoulder or front), belt bags, wallets, and fanny packs. The sling bags and belt bags are popular since you can slide them in front in a potential pickpocketing area. While a few have cool designs, I think these are ripe for more customization - glam, photos, monograms, kids, masculine designs, fractals, etc.
Related items include collapsible (packable) backpacks, dry bags (for the beach/snorkeling), and tiny tins for lotions/creams (like candy tins, only smaller), but I don't think they're RFID-blocking. I posted earlier about packing cubes where customization is highly practical as well as fun. It would be potentially lucrative to produce a whole travel line that coordinates with our suitcases. Think grad gifts, weddings, retirement (for travel lovers), etc. There are a lot of "nomad" vloggers who demo travel-friendly items, so this might be a promotional opportunity.
