Wash Bags

A good men's wash bag keeps your razor, skincare and fragrance in order, whether it lives by the bathroom sink or travels with you. Here you'll find leather wash bags from Benjamin Barber, a light and leakproof silicone toiletry bag and a clear travel wash bag sized for hand luggage. For a tidy suitcase, there are also packing cubes and small organisers for almost everything you pack.

How to choose the right wash bag

The best wash bag depends on how you'll use it. Will it sit on a bathroom shelf, come along on business trips or survive a week in hand luggage? Here is how our styles differ.

Leather wash bags built to last

A leather wash bag is the choice for anyone who wants something that looks good and lasts for years. Benjamin Barber's wash bags in brown and black leather have an embossed logo and a zip, and the leather gains character the more you use it. They look as good on a shelf at home as they do in a suitcase, and they are among the most popular gifts in the category.

Silicone toiletry bag that handles water

The Sailor's silicone toiletry bag weighs very little and is leakproof. If a bottle leaks, everything stays inside the bag instead of ending up on your clothes. Silicone also wipes clean in seconds, which makes it ideal for the gym bag and for trips where everything needs to be quick.

Travel wash bag for hand luggage

If you travel with hand luggage only, your liquids need to go in a clear bag. The Gents travel wash bag for hand luggage is made for exactly that. Many airports still limit liquids to 100 ml per container in a bag of around one litre, but the rules vary between airports. Check what applies where you fly from. Decant your favourites into travel atomizers and you won't need to buy anything at your destination.

What size wash bag do you need?

The size depends on what you pack. For most men, a wash bag with room for a razor, shaving foam or gel, deodorant, skincare and a fragrance is plenty. If you shave with a cut-throat razor, you'll also need space for shaving soap, a brush and a strop, so a roomier toiletry bag works better. Add a beard and you'll want beard oil, a comb and perhaps scissors too. To save space, take a look at our travel shaving accessories.

Pack smarter with packing cubes

Your wash bag keeps your grooming kit in order. Packing cubes do the same for the rest of your suitcase. With the Gents organiser set you split clothes, chargers and small items into separate compartments, so you can find what you need without unpacking everything.

COMMON_FAQ

What is the best men's wash bag?

It depends on how you'll use it. A leather wash bag suits you if you want something stylish that lasts for years. A silicone toiletry bag is best if you want it light and leakproof. If you fly with hand luggage, a clear travel wash bag is the easiest choice.

What is the difference between a wash bag, a toiletry bag and a dopp kit?

There is none. Wash bag is the common British term, toiletry bag is used widely, and dopp kit is the American name. All three describe a bag for grooming, shaving and skincare products, at home or on the go.

What size wash bag do I need?

If you pack a razor, deodorant, skincare and a fragrance, a smaller wash bag is enough. If you shave with a cut-throat razor and brush, or bring beard care, choose a larger bag with more room.

Can I take my wash bag in hand luggage?

Yes. Liquids in hand luggage usually need to be in containers of 100 ml or less, packed together in a clear bag of around one litre. The rules vary between airports, so check what applies where you fly from.

How do I care for a leather wash bag?

Wipe it with a slightly damp cloth and let it dry at room temperature. Treat the leather with a leather balm or wax a few times a year to keep it supple and stop it cracking.

What should a man keep in his wash bag?

The basics are a toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, a razor and shaving foam or gel. Add a face wash, a moisturiser and your fragrance, plus beard oil and a comb if you have a beard.
