A soap travel case has two tasks to compare: keeping a bar contained during transport and managing moisture between uses. The arrangement that helps a bar dry on a bathroom shelf may differ from the one you need inside a packed bag.

Product and fit checks
Measure the bar when new and check usable internal dimensions. A close-fitting container can be awkward once soap becomes wet or soft. Look at the opening and how you will remove the bar without forcing it.
If the trip involves shared bathrooms, consider where the bar and case can sit while in use. A separate draining arrangement may suit that setting better than opening the travel container on a wet shelf. Check whether the case can be opened and cleaned without leaving inaccessible residue. Compare these handling details with packed size instead of selecting by the smallest outside dimensions alone.
Choosing for your use
Compare a vented rigid box with a pouch or a container designed to close tightly. If a design has drainage openings, plan where that moisture can go; do not assume it can be packed against clothing immediately after use. Follow the maker's instructions for cleaning the case and preparing the bar for transport.
Handling and planning
Decide which containment and drying arrangement suits your routine, and check the actual product instructions instead of assuming every soap case behaves alike.
Trial-pack the case with the bar you use before departure. Check whether opening the container over a sink is practical and where a damp case will sit between uses.
Matador describes its FlatPak design as allowing a bar to dry inside; this is a manufacturer claim, not measured drying-time testing. Official source.
