As per the VB website, Monday night all the 1XL and 2XL brushes were out of stock. Luckily I was just lurking, or I would have been disappointed. At least in the pictures, they are a stunning brush. If they are a big success, and do come back into stock, I hope they maintain that fan-type profile. I find it refreshing after the nearly torpedo shape loft some of the 2-band Simpson brushes sport.
