Abstract

A travel article has an interior pocket that permits the insertion and/or removal of one or more items in the pocket from only the inside of the travel article. The travel article provides a window to allow any items inside of the pocket to be seen on the outside of the travel article. The travel article can be, for example, luggage, totes, toiletry kits, brief cases, duffels, backpacks, sling packs, business cases, business or craft organizers. The provision of such a pocket can allow a user to personalize the bag and can also facilitate bag identification.
