I don't have any experience with boar brushes as I only have one brush from the cheap ones... I prefer the synthetic ones that I have, they are easy to use with a velvety lathering and I wouldn't change them for anything...
However, for sure you need a boar brush for hard soaps and this brush is great... a bristle brush with a soft texture for boar but with a cheap handle... you don't need anything more for the few occasions when you don't use the synthetic ones...

The brush loses quite a few bristles and doesn't have a very pleasant smell, even though I have washed it several times!

From my experience in classic shaving, this brush does a reliable job for lathering with the foam!!

For the money, it is very worth it. It needs to be worked on quite a bit to soften up, but it does its job and more. Obviously, no matter what you do to it, it will always be a pig and will never become a swan, but it is a very good value for money.

You must be recently initiated into traditional shaving to give 5 stars to a boar brush.
Come on guys, rule number one is badger first, then synthetic (they compete in some cases), and lastly the sweaty boar brush... the price is equally disappointing.
Those of you who can, spend a little more money and go for the first two, it's really worth it.

At first, it may seem a little hard, but as you go along, it softens and does its job perfectly. It also has great durability over time.

The handle/base of it is plastic and it looks a bit fake up close. It is not mentioned in the description

Very good boar bristle brush, with enough resistance without being too hard. Before using it, make foam 2-3 times on your hand to get rid of the smell. It's worth it!

I don't need to say much. It helps the foam and cream spread easily and evenly and has a good feel on the skin. Value for money

Nice big brush (recommended for big-bodied men), made by Omega. It creates a nice lather, is moderately soft, not velvety, it's a classic barber brush, it softens even more over time and use. It has a nice feel, holds plenty of water. As for the scent, since it's boar bristle, it's barely noticeable. The brush is complete.

Excellent brush. Quite rich and dense, it doesn't have any difficulty in creating lather, either with soaps or creams. If you also consider its price, it is more than value for money !!!!

Excellent quality.

Good brush and it looks quality. Nice material for both the handle and the brush. The bristles are somewhat hard at first due to their origin (boar) but they soften afterwards. Very good product and a cost-effective purchase compared to other products.
