Tie and Belt Case

At some point, you have too many Ties and Belts which outgrow the space between your socks and undies. Ever thought to yourself….gee I would really like to organise my ties and belts better? Well, not anymore. malebox has just introduced a tie and belt box can be placed in your cupboard or on top of your chest of drawers. It fits 12 ties in the top and 12 belts below (you may be able to fit ties in the bottom drawer as well dependent upon thickness). You can place other items in any of the compartments, but keep all your ties and belts in this box and your partner will forever be off your back for not putting them away…and they will be easy to find the next time you need to wear them!

malebox – always a step ahead for men’s gifts!

Some common stains are: Alcohol, Grease, Coffee or Ink stains from a pen. Here are some steps if you want to attend to the stain yourself. Continue reading →
