Measurements are Simpsons' published figures, which the maker gives as approximate. Prices and stock are shown live in the product grid above.
A smaller knot like the 23 mm T1 is easy to control around the nose and lips and packs well for travel. A larger knot like the 26 mm T3 or 27 mm Chubby 2 covers more of the face in each pass and holds more lather for a three-pass shave.
Loft is the length of the knot above the handle. A shorter loft, as on the T1, feels firmer and scrubs more. A longer loft, as on the T3 and Chubby 2, feels softer and flexes more.
Synthetic knots are ready to use without soaking, dry quickly and suit soaps and creams alike. Badger holds warm water well and gives the traditional feel many wet shavers prefer. Read our guide to boar, badger and synthetic brushes.
