What makes our men's toiletry bags so special
Our bags for men from DRAKENSBERG are anything but ordinary. Sustainability is not an empty phrase for us, but an inseparable part of our product design philosophy. Our focus is on authentic wash bags for men that are made just like they were 100 years ago. Natural materials are our focus.
We are not fooled by supposedly "vegan" leather, which is often actually a plastic composite. Real imitation leather from plant sources is rare and often ends up being plastic composites. The term "natural leather" is also overused, but for us it still means genuine leather of the highest quality. We only use first-class, full-grain buffalo leather for our men's toiletry bags.
We attach particular importance to outstanding workmanship quality. Each piece is processed by hand and thoroughly checked. The zippers on our products come from YKK, a guarantee of durability. Our production is fair and SEDEX-certified.
A high-quality toiletry bag for the modern man in the 21st century should not only be functional, but also convey a sincere and authentic feeling. At DRAKENSBERG, each toiletry bag tells its own story and embodies style and personality. For men with a sense of style and environmental responsibility.

The function of a toiletry bag
A toiletry bag or a Necessaire is a small bag for men that is used when travelling or in everyday life to store hygiene items such as toothbrushes, toothpaste or personal care products. The term "toiletry bag" only became established in the middle of the 20th century and is derived from "body culture". Other common terms are cosmetic bag, bathing bag, wash bag and toiletry bag. In parts of Germany and Switzerland, the terms "Necessaire" or "Nessessär" are also used, which come from French.
What models of men’s toiletry bags are there?
In our range we offer four categories of toiletry bags made of canvas and leather: foldable toiletry bags for hanging, such as the Sid model; firmly structured toiletry bags, such as the Glen model; compact cosmetic bags, such as the Tim leather case; and expandable toiletry bags, such as the Ruby model. The choice of the right toiletry bag depends on the use and personal preferences. All of our toiletry bags impress with their durability, quality craftsmanship and robustness.
Optimal size for men's toiletry bags

What is the difference between a men's toiletry bag and a wash bag?
The terms are often used interchangeably, as they all refer to small bags or pouches used to store personal care items, utensils, or cosmetic products. However, there are subtle differences in the use and meaning of these terms, which can vary by region and context.
Toiletry bag:
The term "toiletry bag" is broad and generally refers to a bag or case that can be used to store various hygiene and cosmetic items such as dental care, soap, shampoo, perfume, etc. These bags are often used when traveling or in daily life to keep personal items organized and within reach.
Wash bag:
The term "wash bag" puts a little more emphasis on the purpose of the bag, which is to store items used for personal care and washing. "Washing" here refers to skin and hair care. A wash bag can usually have larger dimensions and is often designed to be used in the bathroom or other washing facilities. Often a wash bag offers a hanging option.
What should be in a men’s toiletry bag?
The ideal toiletry bag for men should be tailored to your individual needs as a man, the space available in your suitcase, the destination and the planned duration of the trip. Here is a selection of indispensable essentials and cosmetic products that could be a useful addition to your toiletry bag:
Toothbrush and toothpaste: The basis for fresh breath and thorough oral hygiene, which should not be missing on any trip. If you use an electric toothbrush, remember to pack the appropriate attachments.
Soap or shower gel: Travel sizes are ideal for saving space, especially in a compact toiletry bag.
Shampoo and hair care products: Don’t forget your hair care products, hair ties and a hairbrush.
Deodorant and perfume: A high-quality deodorant or a subtle perfume will ensure that you feel fresh and confident even when you are on the go.
Moisturizer or lotion: Nourish your skin and protect it from drying out, especially when traveling in different climates.
Sunscreen: A reliable sunscreen is essential to protect your skin from harmful UV rays. It's best to keep these products right in your toiletry bag so you have them on hand at all times.
Lip balm: Keep your lips supple and protected from drying out, especially in changing weather conditions.
Razor: If you want to shave on the go, remember your razor, appropriate care products and enough replacement blades.
Contact lenses or glasses (if needed): Make sure you have clear vision whether you wear contact lenses or glasses.
Contact lens case and solution (if needed): Keep your contact lenses hygienically stored and remember all the necessary items for the entire duration of your trip.
Small travel first aid kit: Plan ahead and pack important medications, painkillers and bandages for possible emergencies.
