The manufacture was originally based in East London, but later in Clapham. In 1941, after the loss of its factory during the German Luftwaffe blitz during World War II, production moved to the West Country, to the famous Nimmer Mill. Today, Simpson shaving brushes and related 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 handmade bows by skilled workers. The Trafalgar is the latest offer in our new range of Alexander Simpson East. Shaving brushes since 1919.

Our extensive range of products in a wide variety of styles and materials makes Simpson the number one choice for your next shaving brush. Review: Great quality - Good quality and no badgers were de-bristled for it! Gives a really good shave especially when paired with The Black Stuff shaving creme. Very happy! Review: Great lather in 30 seconds - Since I started shaving with traditional soaps about a year ago, I have been using a cheap boar bristle brush. Lathering up a soap has always been a big challenge and no matter how many techniques I tried the results have been inconsistent. In the end I figured that the brush is the single most important tool for the job, so I needed to try something different and I ended up ordering the T2 from Simpson. The brush arrived in an unbranded red box, which looked suspicious, but the brush looked alright. The bristles are very soft even when dry and the handle feels premium. The water retention is ridiculous compared to my boar one and I can feel the weight changing after having dipped it in water. So, straight out of the box and with no "getting used to" period I managed to get perfect lather from my Mitchell's wool fat soap in under a minute. Impressive, to say the least. We are talking about super thick, shiny, bouncy foam. Very similar to what you would get out of a modern Gillette can. The touch on the face and the behaviour of the bristles is pure bliss. In conclusion, a good brush just saved me tons of time and frustration on my shaving routine. And we are talking about a synthetic bristle, faux ivory handle, cruelty-free brush. No badgers need to be killed in order to enjoy a premium barbershop level shaving anymore. The product is perfect and the price is right. I think products like this need to be suggested to newcomers in wet shaving more often and in general get more love from the shaving community, who tend to fetishize natural brushes. ## Features - Scotsman Alexander Simpson began the production of shaving badgers and men's grooming accessories in 1919 and is widely regarded as a pioneer in the industry.

It is a terrific brush, but I think I would buy the T2 if I was replacing it for two reasons: 1) I had difficulty finding a brush stand (which is essential) that could fit the T3. 2) The diameter to length ratio is off to me. I think the feel would be better, if the handle was longer. **Q: Can the T2 fit in a razor/brush stand?** A: For Simpson T2 brush I use CHARMMAN stand with extra wide opening (style 31mm brush opening). You can search Amazon for this product number: B07FFH44TQ , it fits perfectly. **Q: Besides the price what are the main differences between these three brushes? The t1, t2, and t3.** A: Knot size, T1 = 42mmx23mm T2=44mmx24mm T3=50mmx26mm **Q: What is the best fit hanger for the T3 Synthetic bristle brush? The suggested frequently bought together is wrong as the brush is wider than the slot.** A: I use a Kent brush stand. It's a common plastic design - suspect there are other about the same size. I doubt you will find a stand that allows you to hold it by its "waist". The T3, like most synthetic brushes dries very quickly. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality *by A***N on 16 November 2025* Good quality and no badgers were de-bristled for it!

Seemed to take a little longer to work up a decent lather, although this is improving with subsequent use. Very good product. ## Frequently Bought Together - Alexander Simpsons Trafalgar 2 Shaving Brush - T2 Synthetic High Density Fibre Faux Handle Ivory - Simpson Shaving Brushes - Wet Shave Deluxe Thick & Luxurious Lather Dense Extra Soft Bristles - Proraso Shaving Soap - Merkur Mk34c Double Edge Razor with Heavy Duty Short Handle --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/260860186-simpson-shaving-brushes-alexander-trafalgar-synthetic-shaving-brush-imitation-ivory](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/260860186-simpson-shaving-brushes-alexander-trafalgar-synthetic-shaving-brush-imitation-ivory) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
