Arley
Arley is one of our first shaving brush designs, pre-dating even the ShaveWorks name. Originally called the "Big Guy" turned in Macassar ebony and mesquite, several of our friends rapidly prevailed on us to re-name this brush in honor of our mutual friend Arley. Bowing to some not-so-subtle pressure, Big Guy became Arley--and remains so to this day.
Although the Arley name has remained, its design has evolved over the years, both in materials--from wood to the more functional cast polyester--and shape becoming even more user-friendly. Arley has remaining a consistent seller throughout.
Arley is hand-crafted in three sizes: 26, 28, and 30mm.
- 26mm and 28mm brushes may be filled with our BSSW 2-band Select Badger or 3-band Super Badger.
- 30mm knots are currently out of stock.
Arley handle colors may be selected from our Resin Inventory, while our badger hairs are described on this page.
