What are your brushes made of?

Our brush hair is made from a synthetic technology called Futura, a type of synthetic fiber that can withstand extreme heat and can actually outlast most animal hair. 

Futura is very similar to badger hair and many believe that because of the stiffer nature it is better for wet shaving. The stiffer bristles allow a wet shaver to lather soap in a mug or scuttle with more tension and thus consistency which results in a thicker foam and thus better shave.
