The Synthetics are generally much cheaper than silvertip badger shaving brushes. Expensive synthetic shaving brush makes no difference with cheap synths because they use the same fibers.
Actually the fibers are different with some companies than others. I believe there are about 3 different fibers being used today in popular synthetics.
Then it also makes a big difference on how dense they pack the knot. For example you take the Fine Stout brush and compare it to a Chubby 2 synthetic and there is quite a difference. Both synthetics but not quite the same.

Definitely disagree with this theory. I’ve got so many synthetic brushes from top to bottom. quality is not associated with price. Except the t3. I don’t know how they are doing that at that price point.Brother, she is RUTHLESS.

You have huge wiggle room to bury $7 is all I’m saying

Well if you want the truth bag the g5 idea and go T3. It’s double the price but a fantastic synthetic of the “new” fibers. (No paintbrush 🖌 there
)
My I just had 4 Yaqis come on including the new "Everest" (Trafalgar clone). I prefer 3 of the 4 to the G5. The Everest is my favorite of the bunch and might end up my favorite brush period. With a clone being so good it stands to reason that the original T2 is also great.
I was gonna get one from AP but even with their least expensive handle it’s almost the same as a T3 so I’ll prob grab a T3 at some point while I wait for reviews to trickle in.

Back in the day, nylon shaving brushes was the only vegan's choice. It's like lathering with bundle of fishing lines.
Which synthetic from them? They have quite a few synthetics and pretty much have same description for them all.
