What to look for in a men's toiletry bag
Real men should have a carefully-organised dopp kit with all the grooming essentials they need for daily use. Getting your dopp kit sorted out starts with buying the right toiletry bag. There are a few criteria to help you decide on the type of toiletry bag to best suit your needs.
Toiletry bag for travel or home
Are you buying a men's toiletry bag mostly to use at home in your own bathroom, or one to take on business trips and holidays? Your home toiletry bag will probably be larger and can be quite heavy since you won't be carrying it around much.
If you plan on using the bag for travel purposes, you should be looking for a smaller, lightweight bag.
Men's leather toiletry bag
Leather toiletry bags not only scream class but can also last you a lifetime. We love leather toiletry bags because they look so damn good. Canvas wash bags with leather accents are also a favourite and will go great with your
leather travel bag.
Toiletry bag essentials
There are a few items that are absolutely essential for any man's (travel) toiletry bag. We've made a short list below to help you make sure you don't forget anything.
- Bar of natural soap
- Shampoo
- Your favourite deodorant
- Toothbrush, toothpaste, dental floss
- Lip Balm
- Shaving kit: razor, shaving brush, shaving soap, or
- Beard oil and trimmer (if you're a bearded man)
- Nail clippers
- Band Aids
Your dopp kit as a fashion statement
Fashion statement may be a slight exaggeration, but your toiletry bag and its contents definitely speaks volumes about the type of man you are. A classy leather wash bag, neatly organised with high-quality grooming products, shows that you are a style-conscious man who takes care of himself.
