Upgrade Your Morning Shower With These Essentials

Published By

Why is it that we’re more than willing to throw down when it comes to entertainment center upgrades, but not always our showers? Imagine a world in which every time you step into the shower, you’re transported to a mini vacation, complete with good music, calming smells, and beer service.

Don’t tell me you wouldn’t want that right in your own bathroom. So in the spirit of making your life just a little better where you can (or a lot better in this case), we present the ultimate shower upgrade gear. 

If you can improve a place that you’re in everyday, it’s advisable that you make those improvements. So go ahead, level up that bathroom, and bring the Bahamas or the mountains or your favorite campsite into your cleaning suite. Besides, nothing says “grown man” and “well adjusted” like a souped up shower.

Tile Series Shower Organizer

STREAMLINE YOUR ROUTINE

If there’s one thing every chap likes, it’s efficiency.

It can also serve as an effective permanent home for your face shaver so you aren’t blindly, and dangerously, feeling for it at the bottom of some shower basket.

The Arnold is a stainless steel hook that can hold your shower brush, your soap on a rope, or even your locker keys if you want to take these guys on tour. The George is a double holder for toothbrushes or toothbrush heads, and the Archer is a magnetic mount for clippers, tweezers, or anything metal. They’re all easy to mount, remount, and sport a modern and stylish silicone construction.
