Every man needs a Dopp kit in his life. These quintessential toiletry kits became popular in World War II, when every soldier was issued one as part of his standard gear.
The basic design hasn’t changed since they were first invented (why mess with perfection?), but Dopp kits are now manufactured in a variety of materials, including vinyl and nylon.

How to Choose a Dopp Kit
Dopp kits are perfect gifts for almost any occasion – retirement, graduation, Christmas, or birthday. Even the hard-to-buy for guy will appreciate a quality travel kit. Here’s a quick guide on how to choose the best travel case:
Size
Think about how many toiletries you carry on trips. For most guys, the basics include shampoo, shaving cream, a razor, deodorant, comb, nail clippers and medicines. The contact wearer might need a little extra room for contact supplies. If that pretty much sums it up for you, you can probably get buy with the average size kit (about 10″ x 6″ x 4″ is the norm). There are plenty of larger bags available if you need more space.
If your suitcase is already tight on room, you might want to consider a toiletries kit that packs flat.
Material
If your budget allows, go with a leather dopp kit. A high-quality leather kit will last a lifetime, and just feels more luxurious than synthetic materials. If your budget doesn’t allow it, or you are ethically opposed to leather, look for easy-care vinyl, microfiber, or canvas.
Number of Compartments
Are you a toss-everything-in-one compartment type of guy, or should every item have its own place? Consider whether you want a separate area to store wet things.
Interior Lining
You’ll definitely want a lining that can be sponged off, since I can almost guarantee that at some point your toothpaste cap will come loose and leak!
To Hang, or Not to Hang?
Most men just keep their toiletries kit on the counter. If counterspace is at a premium, you might prefer to hang your kit from the door, shower rod or a hook in the bathroom.
Dopp Kit Price
Prices vary greatly, with nylon or fabric kits starting at under $25. A top-of-the-line leather kit will cost over $125, but will probably last a lifetime. Some of the top-notch kits actually include lifetime warranties.
