    Ok, so I'm relatively new to traditional shaving (since October of last year), and have had the same brush for the past 7-8 months. The brush I speak of is a synthetic one made by Jack Black (the men's grooming product line, not by the lead singer of Tenacious D, lol). It's pillow-soft and and an...

    Ogalla products

    Buy Online?

    Thread Starter: Rattbones

    Do you buy your shaving products online? I've read in several post were people claim loyalty to a particular online vendor, but I'm not sure why. It seems to me one of the hardest things to do is spend your hard earned money on a product you've never used before. Granted, not everyone has access...

    I have to fly to Tucson next weekend for a funeral. I'm only taking carry on luggage, and I am fairly sure you can take a safety razor on board but blades are a no go. So I called the hotel I'm staying at and explained the situation (why I would be mailing myself a razor blade to the hotel.) The...

    White shoe advice

    Thread Starter: Grumpy_Bottom

    Picked up a used pair of AE Miami's off the 'Bay, looked pretty good, soles looked decent, AE soles, so I felt pretty good about them. They arrived today and were very obviously and very poorly dyed. White powder comes off on your fingers, leading me to believe it was possibly cheap rattle can...

    The Razor you hate to love.

    Thread Starter: Kent Kimmons

    Many have posted that they can't get a good shave with the Gillette Travel Tech but I find it a very capable razor and have it in my rotation. Which of your razors is known as a "poor example" by many but, for you, is a perfectly acceptable shaver?
