Chubby 1 Sovereign Fibre St Marys

Scotsman Alexander Simpson started production of shaving brushes and male grooming ancillaries in 1919 and is widely regarded as a pioneer in the industry. Manufacturing was originally based in the East end of London but later in Clapham. In 1941, following the loss of his factory during the World War II German Luftwaffe blitz, production was moved to the West Country at the famous Nimmer Mill. Today Simpson shaving brushes and associated products are manufactured by Progress Shaving Brush (Vulfix) Limited on the historic Isle of Man. They continue to be produced in the traditional way using hand tied knots by time served skilled workers.  

The iconic Chubby series is turned in three sizes. The Chubby 1 available here in our Special Edition St Marys Rod and filled with our uniquely sourced Sovereign grade synthetic fibre. The unrivalled knot construction & density of these truly brilliant brushes can never be overstated.
