The Nom Gustav Black Fibre shaving brush is Mühle's value focused vegan option for wet shavers who want a soft, dense knot without natural hair. The Gustav handle is turned from a lightly shimmering black plastic with a narrow waist that sits securely between thumb and forefinger, even once wet.
Its 21mm knot is made from Black Fibre, a synthetic fibre developed by Mühle to mimic the feel and performance of pure badger hair. The fibres are soft against the skin yet slightly more robust than natural hair, so the brush dries quickly and holds its shape well over years of use.
Because Black Fibre whips up a dense lather from a smaller amount of soap or cream, the Gustav is an economical daily brush as well as a practical choice for anyone avoiding animal hair products. It is designed and manufactured by Mühle in Germany.
