Slow Shaving with Benton Clay

When we at Benton Clay began producing our short runs of shaving soap, shaving mugs and shaving brushes, we chose the tagline, "Time. To Shave." The phrase emphasizes the importance of taking time for the small things in life - reclaiming the time that electric razors, petro-foam and propellants took away. As we talked with more and more people about their own shaving journeys we realized that the movement toward traditional shaving is part of something bigger - the slow movement in general and the slow shaving movement is particular. We are excited to participate in that movement by adopting slow "making" processes and by providing slow shaving tools for others. We have a web site in progress, but in the meantime feel free to look at our Flickr Gallery. We'd love to hear from you.
