Stay fresh, everywhere.

Mind your balls.

Applying deodorants under your armpits after you wake up is a simple daily grooming routine which is fixed in our brains and something that you would do without even thinking.

Antiperspirants are designed to help you stop sweating and smelling bad and instead leave you feeling fresh and clean for the day ahead.

What if there was a deodorant that you could apply to other parts of your body, private parts, parts which you thought were a no deodorant zone.

Yes, according to Tonic, there has been a sharp increase in a number of men buying antiperspirant products for their testicles. It’s not just a small market either, oh no, there seems to be a host of companies with products out there specifically designed to keep your bits bad smells at bay.

Comfyballs, Comfy Boys, Fresh Balls, Dry Goods, DZ Nuts, Driball, ToppCock, Bálla for Men and Man Powder are just some of the creatively named companies offering products designed to ensure your balls smell fresh.

The ball business seems to be booming too. The article states that Bálla for Men sales have increased from 2,000 units in 2010 to 50,000 in 2016.

While Man Powder say their sales have spiked by over 60% since last summer and Fresh Balls claim sales have increased by 200% since last January.

They are not just aimed at male athletes either, they are for the every day JOE soap too so even the couch-potatoes spuds will have their manhood protected.

Would you have these products in your wash bag?
