The Simpson Synthetic Trafalgar T3 is made using specially sourced Sovereign grade fibres embedded into a classic lathe turned handle. This excellent brush dries fast, lathers exceptionally well and feels great on the face. These brushes are made in the Isle of Man and are exceptional value.

New to wet shaving so I don't have another reference point. I just wanted to buy one and be done, without regrets and need to upgrade to get good results. I opted for it due to stellar reviews here and elsewhere. Very soft bristles, great lather directly on face. I imagined it might be too big, seeing that there are 2 smaller versions of it (T1 and T2) but visually and in hand it's absolutely the right size for a shaving brush. I'm happy with my purchase.
Absolutely wonderful brush Great for lathering
Great brush for the price It’s a lather monster
When I got into DE I was a bit of a snob and thought badger or boar was the only way to go when it came to brushes. Well curiosity got the better of me and I had to try a synthetic and Simpson was my first choice because of the high quality of their brush line. Boy oh boy is this a lather machine? It's superb and it has just the right amount of backbone to dish out some serious bubbles but the tips are supersoft. For the mere asking price you may have a friend for life! Try one, you know you want it!
Incredibly excellent brush
I was interested in the T3 synthetic from Simpson's as I had heard good things about it. The knot is perfect for both face and bowl lathering, creams and soaps. The fibres are soft but the knot is dense and firm, allowing for loads of soap/cream to be taken in by the fibres. The flow through of lather is excellent and the lathering qualities are simply amazing. The value for money cannot be overstated here. I would highly recommend this brush for someone looking for a top quality synthetic knot, or for simply a top quality shaving brush.
