Since the years of the Second World War, Bosca has produced this handsome men’s shave kit, appropriately named The Utilikit. Proven classic and timeless, this kit keeps all of your shaving and grooming supplies in order. It’s still one of our best selling gift items and is always in demand for traveling or simply at home use.
Our leather wears in, not out. To create a product that gets better with age, we start with the highest quality leather. Bosca leather is made in Italy using primarily natural vegetable tannins. Each hide is individually hand stained with a translucent pigment for a rich coloration. This process showcases the leather’s natural characteristics. Upon completion, each hide is inspected and individually signed to ensure only the best quality.
In 1911, a young Italian immigrant named Hugo Bosca founded our company on a foundation dedicated to originality, ingenuity, and lasting quality. Today, the Bosca family and Bosca brand remain stubbornly dedicated to these timeless values. Every detail of each product receives our full consideration from design, to engineering, and, finally, manufacturing.

I will start by saying that this will be the last Toiletry kit you will ever buy. True, it is expensive, but it will last you a lifetime. I bought one in 1997 before i joined the US Army. I took it to basic training, 2 years in Germany (including field exercises), 1 year in Iraq during wartime. I lived in Europe (Italy) after that for 10 years, making countless trips around europe, and multiple transatlantic trips. This kit has been with me everywhere, and still holds up. The inside liner developed a few cracks a couple years back, but even though the liner started to crack after 18 yrs, I still have never considered getting a new one. It would be great if I could find someone to replace the plastic liner inside. Zipper still works like the day i bought it, and I am attached to it like no other piece of luggage. This is probably the single best buy that I have ever made. The only reason that I am reviewing it now, is that my wife offered to by me a new shave kit and it was only after I explained the history that I have with this Utilikit that I realized i should share my experience.
Absolutely stunningly beautiful leather kit. Monogram is very classy and tasteful. Product arrived very quickly. Very excited to give as gift!
I did not realize it would be so much smaller than the unstructured kit I had prior. Earlier this week had a conversation going and the person shared with me that I might be able to return for the new unstructured bag recently shown on your site.
Far superior to any other dopp kit I saw out there. My boyfriend loves it!
Got this for my hubby for our 25th wedding anniversary. Extremely well made--just beautiful! A perfect gift to celebrate an important milestone; the complimentary monogram adds that special touch.
Inspired by the Dopp kit that I watched my dad use for 30+ years, I got this for my boyfriend as a birthday present. Before this, he'd been using a plastic bag to store all of his toiletries while traveling. This is JUST what I pictured. The leather is rich and smells like leather should. The zipper opens and closes without a snag--so smooth! The kit itself locks open for convenience when using. I almost wanted to keep it for myself!
I first came across Bosca when I had to replace my wallet about a year ago and was very impressed with the craftsmanship and quality of the Bosca wallet. So when I needed to replace my shaving kit, Bosca was my first choice. This is easily the most beautiful and well made shaving kit I have ever seen. The stitching is flawless. The leather is gorgeous. The craftsmanship if first class. The heavy duty zipper glides back and forth smoothly. My black on black monogrammed initials give it just that extra touch of class. Truly an outstanding shaving kit and one that I will be proud to use for many, many years.
When my son in law received the kit he was blown away with the quality of leather, the zip out liner, and the monograming. Thank you for making such a great gift.
An absolutely beautiful, gorgeous piece of craftsmanship. I love it! Thank you !
I bought this beautiful Dopp Kit for my son's 18th b-day and it goes everywhere with him.....boarding school, lacrosse camps, traveling and soon on to college! Superior quality and the dark brown is just such a gorgeous color leather. I highly recommend buying this Dopp Kit as a wonderful gift for any special man in your life. It is definitely an item that will last for many years and hopefully will have many stories that go along with it. Spend the extra $ and get it embossed with the initials of the recipient......just makes it more special and very classy. A few more of these Dopp Kits are now on my "to buy" list for the upcoming holidays!
I bought this for my grandson's birthday. He is seventeen , and he will use this many years. It will create a memory of his grandmother (me) forever.
I looked at many of these online,and this was the only one that caught my eye. I can remember after World War II my father who was an officer in the Navy uses one of these leather bag for his shaving items. That was over 60 years ago , and I still have memories of this as a child.
I'm prepping for a trip filling my Old Leather Classic and realized it's 16+ years I've had it. It was originally purchased because of it's size. All the other kits were too small and the Bosca was the only large kit available anywhere. I suspect that's still true. This is truly a lesson in buying quality 1st rather than multiple cheap kits. I'm not buying another because my Bosca is still going strong. Just use some leather conditioner every few years. I only ended up here because I wondered if they were still in business. Proof positive quality is always better than cheap. Thanks Bosca, keep up the good work.
as always excellent quality of leather, wish the product was available in nappa leather, and would like the product to be larger without the fold down the zipper. the zipper operation is smooth and very durable. the zip-out lining makes clean up perfect also the lighter lining makes finding items effortless. this is a definite buy.
This was a college graduation gift for my son that I expected him to use for the rest of his life.
I have one similar that I have had for nearly 40 years. We both loved it and I think it may be time to replace my old. Keep your standards high. Thank for a fine product.
Great item. Better than anything I bought yet
I bought this dopp kit for my boyfriend as a gift. He has loved it so much and constantly uses it. He travels a lot so he loves having all of his bathroom essentials in it to just throw into his suitcase. The quality of the leather is top-notch and he has had many compliments on it. Everyone wants to know where he got it so that they can get one. This is a case that is so high quality that you will keep it forever!
