Connaught Shaving is touting this as being a perfect replacement P.160. It's called Fitness for Man. I think it's a soft cream. Has anyone heard of or tried it yet?

I'm sorry, a great replacement .
I have a tub of this which I bought from Connaught.
It's cream that's thicker than TOBS but not as hard as something like Cella so a harder cream or a softer soft soap - if that makes sense. Very easy to stick your brush in and for it overflow the tub in a gooey mess.
It smells very strongly of almonds and at first I disliked it but now I've sussed out that you don't much of it and that it quite likes water it's in my rotation. good shave and it leaves your skin quite nice aferwards. I made the mistake of putting too much on my brush the first few times and it's like putting a paste on you and just couldn't get it to lather up nicely and it put me off but persisted with playing around with it and it's up there with my favourites.
I've never used P.160 so cannot compare it to that but it's very reasonably priced.

Fitness for Man = RazoRock Classic = Figaro
All three the exact same. I like Fitness, and had bought a couple of tubs from Shoebox Shaveshop back before RazoRock was even a business. If I recall, this was RazoRock's original entry as a shaving vendor.

yup. it's the the EXACT same thing. i've owned the red tub Figaro and then RR classic, they are identical.
Excellent cherry almond scent (much better then Cella to my nose) and a great performing cream/soap/croap.

Sounds like a winner.
