[@CannabisTechLife]

I am using the peak design one. While it is bulky, it fits all my full sized items. Can't get enough of the sage green. I wish more of their products ad that color.

[@Nomads.Nation]

@@CannabisTechLife love the sage green

[@markpuffer9615]

Small sea to summit. Very light weight and can hold lots if properly packed.

[@Nomads.Nation]

@@markpuffer9615 I'll check it out!

[@bobsimmons1470]

Perfect options for my hemorrhoid cream! Thank you!

[@Nomads.Nation]

An ideal location for sure! Glad to help!

[@markpuffer9615]

I use the small sea to summit toiletry bag. Very light weight and I fill ,you own containers as needed.

[@Nomads.Nation]

good to know!

[@GregPowellD]

I've got the GRAVEL Explorer kit as well. This thing is rad. I take it with my one even one-day trips because it's just so practical and useful. I've used the inside 'kit' aka the silicone bag as an emergency bag when something is leaking or broken in my suitcase (life saver). Glad you pointed out the toothbrush sleeve can hold an electric toothbrush as well. This dopp kit + my Nomatic duffel and I'm down to travel anywhere.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Hell of a combo for sure!!

[@beijingpengzi4056]

One thing (which eventually made me order the PD over the AER, besides that are was out of stock).... not bl00dy dark lining. It makes finding and cleaning so much easier with a bit of contrast

[@Nomads.Nation]

totally agree!

[@Rosa52]

The gravel shower bag can also be purchased separately, its my favorite short trip toiletry bag, it has a hanging strap unlike a lot of other bags of that size, and it also doubles as a TSA bag. Its also affordable. I use it independently, i don't use the gravel toiletry kits, only the clear shower bag

[@Nomads.Nation]

oh yea, its awesome

[@sdophoto1405]

I know this is a bit older now. I have the gravel slim but there are many times I just find it too small. I can make it work with my partner when flying since we always have to have out liquids in 3-1-1 bag. I have been thinking between the aer travel kit 2 as it looks very versatile and also the gravel explorer plus. With the aer I can not decide between the xpac and cordura. mainly because I love the orange but I am not a huge fan of xpac. Decisions....

[@Nomads.Nation]

decisions decisions... XPAC has been growing on me. I think it's a great material for a small pouch like a dopp kit

[@Schwarzegamer]

I have the Nomatic toiletry bag 2.0 in small and regular. Love them! I also use Stasher bags for liquids and such, as I have different sizes.

[@Nomads.Nation]

I like the Nomatic Bag as well

[@reeks303]

Any plans on reviewing the nomatic toiletry kit? It looks very nice.

[@Nomads.Nation]

not in our immediate future no, but it does look nice!

[@j0404t]

Aaron can you please review the Gravel Explorer MAX? I have been using the Gravel Plus for years and feel like with electric tooth brushes and bulky electric razors, people need larger options. Check it out. Would love your thoughts!

[@Nomads.Nation]

its on our (Very very very long) wish list!

[@sdophoto1405]

I have the gravel slim which I love but there are a few things because of the size my electric toothbrush has to be separate. I got the slim because most of my travel is air travel and I have to use the 311 bag so the size of this one is perfect. I did debate about the larger size. Love the product.

[@Nomads.Nation]

yea they take dopp kitts very seriously lol

Yo dude! Thanks for the suggestion but it’s very unlikely I’ll review a tennis bag since I don’t really play 🎾

[@unfi6798]

Beard Oil.?! Great choices mate. With the less expensive ones, we would recommend using transparent zip lock bags for organisation & customizing. They're all good, functional & logical items, furthermore we don't really need a Gucci for toiletries do we? Our go to dopp kit....a K-mart special canvas pencil case. After 4 yrs of abuse through Uni & it still rockin" matey.! Cowabunga vid AR..! FYI we get multiple choices with dopp kit from Taiwan & China, the list is endless & very affordable. Cheers cobber.!

[@Nomads.Nation]

gotta keep the beard oiled 🤠

[@joshschneider2548]

I used the Comfyable to carry my medication and medication supplies, and then my Gravel Explorer Slim for everything else.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Nice combo!

[@joshschneider2548]

@@Nomads.Nation I absolutely love the slim. It fits all my stuff nicely. I double up the soap with a matador soap bar case and then have minimal other toiletries. I’ll be testing this setup with the Comfyable and Explorer Slim in a small Swiss Gear bag in a couple of weeks. I know there are better bags out there, but this size works and so does the layout. My only hope is the bag holds up since I know the quality isn’t on par with the better brands out there.

[@Nomads.Nation]

@@joshschneider2548 be sure to keep us posted how it goes!

[@jonuiuc]

I was just looking at dopp kits earlier this year in advance of a trip to alaska. I sorta fell on the minimalist end, basically the smallest bag I can fit all that stuff in works. I ended with a clear plastic one from osprey. The hanging feature does seem nice, especially if you end up living out of your suitcase end up in different places a lot with no time to settle in.

[@Nomads.Nation]

hanging = crucial feature for me

[@chispito6986]

Fantastic video, as usual Aaron! I have used the Gravel for quite some time, but have recently changed to using the Peak Design one and for me, the Peak Design is easier to use, holds everything that I took with me in the Gravel one and the best thing is that you can open it, place it in a flat surface of the toilet for example and take what you need from it directly without using any extra space in for example a small hotel toilet. Plus, I personally found it nicer looking. Gravel is good, but Peak’s is better, at least for me.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks Teddy! Peak Design for me as well, but I was def impressed with Gravel's design too

[@j0404t]

@@Nomads.Nation Hey Aaron, I am also in a similar place - been using the Gravel Plus for years already and it gets the job done, but getting tired of how rigid the organization is and how it opens. Besides the Peak Design one, do you recommend a similar (perhaps newer) option that has similar large capacity to hold bulky stuff like electric toothbrush and electric shavers + bottles?

[@Nomads.Nation]

@@j0404t these are the only dopp kits Ive tested myself. Honestly I've recently been using a plastic bag for my dopp kit and it works great lol

[@A_R_C]

What about evergoods cap2 for dopp kit ? Have you tried the evergoods Ctb26 yet? It seems as an awesome bag! Looking forward to your review if you are planning on checking it out

[@Nomads.Nation]

[@ZBB8]

CAP2 is great pouch as edc, but it’s harder to clean when used as dopp kit - wet stuff, beard trimmer, etc.

[@Nomads.Nation]

@@ZBB8 totally makes sense

[@AnandChandrasekaran]

Have you tried the Boundary Dop Kitt, Port kitt ? . What is your opinion about that

[@Nomads.Nation]

I have yes, it's a great one! To be honest, most Dopp Kitts get the job done - the ones I picked here are just to show a variety of use cases and budget option

[@TLhike]

Gravel is cool but all black is no bueno. Digging into dark bus bunks or back stage, dark dressing rooms etc gettin lost first day! Been rollin w LL Bean organizer 3L, price great and seems to have held up. Also Eagle Creek Packit is nice may try it out. Check it out luv to hear your opinion. Bigger but by time you add trimmer, sonic care, beard oil, hair gel gets busy fast!

will do!

[@justinschneider1379]

@@Nomads.Nation that dex system is a lot of fun. Needs some refinements in some areas imo but they nailed the basics pretty well at least for how I travel. I think you'll really dig the boarding kit. Just a groovy piece of carry

[@Nomads.Nation]

@@justinschneider1379 hell yea I've heard great things

[@TheTastefulThickness]

I gotta say, somehow i ended up with the VertX Contingency Outbound dopp kit and its got pouches for organization, velcro pockets & crazy HQ materials, water resistance and big enough for everything. The see-through mesh doesnt have any perforations, its their own material and much less likely to rip due to its construction. Highly recommend.

[@Nomads.Nation]

good looks!

[@MrJenssen]

I have used the Gravel Explorer for several years now, ever since their very first Kickstarter. I absolutely love the thing, and the choice of a hook-and-loop hanging system over just a regular large hook, is just genius. I can hang this kit around so many differently sized knobs, hooks, poles, pipes and what have you, that a regular large hook might not be able to. The construction overall holds up very well too, it looks brand new even after all these years. My only gripe is that it frels a little too long to fit sideways in a lot of smaller overnight bags, which does feel a little wasteful when it comes to packability.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Great analysis dude! And solid points about the hook system

[@alexandermoursiotis1465]

Great review as always ,i would add heimplanet's dop kit they have a very interesting design although it can be more on the maximalist side😅

Big fan of the osprey ultralight zip organizer. Has great organization for a larger number of thin containers, external access to the central compartment when it's in its "closed" state, detachable clear liquids pouch, hanging hook, and light weight as the name implies. If you have quite a few products that you use but only need a small amount of each for a given trip duration, I've found this to be the best for storing them in a compact package that still allows easy access. i.imgur.com/VHKDMmh.jpg
