Travel is fully back in the swing of things, but there are still some critical elements you need to add to your bag (and your dopp kit) before you hit the road again, like the best travel-sized men's grooming products. Keeping your grooming routine in check while on the road is as important as knowing what to pack, be it the best slip-on boots or an everyday carry-approved wallet. And properly sized grooming selections, the kind that won't get confiscated and thrown out by the TSA, are a must-have for the modern man on the go these days.

It's not as hard as it sounds at first, because plenty of your favorite grooming brands have downsized their essentials in ways that are very friendly to your dopp kit and your wallet. The great news is that you can even replicate practically every step of your routine when on the road, thanks to handy travel-sized picks (remember, liquids, gels, creams, or paste must weigh under 3.4 ounces in a travel-sized container).

Seasonality in your grooming routine is every bit as important as seasonality in your wardrobe, and that's where the best men's body sprays enter the equation.

However, body spray for men is something you can use year-round.

It's a wise choice to lighten things up and freshen yourself up in a hurry. Many body sprays are designed to last through hotter temperatures, and some body sprays for men treat specific scenarios. Case in point: Body sprays are designed to eliminate odors that crop up post-workout (swamp crotch, for example) or even after a shower. Some body sprays are even designed to cool you down along the way.
