Hello again B&Bers!

For this SOTD Theme Week, we want to see your favourite shaving items paired with items that are discussed in other B&B Subforums.

This Theme is EASYโ€ฆ Choose another B&B subforum and incorporate that theme into your shots. I.E. Whisky, watches, footwear, pipes or cigars, knives, music, sports, etc... pretty much anything! The more different themes you can incorporate, the better.

And as usual, if you donโ€™t have anything themedโ€ฆ post pics of your shave or just tell us about it!

As also as usual usual, being creative and having fun IS mandatory but sticking with the theme is NOT mandatory but encouraged.

LETโ€™S HAVE SOME FUN THIS WEEK!

I really enjoy participating in these weekly themed events and like when others do too. I always try to post pictures that follow the theme so with that said today's shave is in honor of the sports subforum.

I'm a huge baseball / Dodgers fan so I just had to pull out one of my official jerseys. ๐Ÿ˜‰

The Gem Micromatic was on point today. Paired with the Gem SS PTFE blade I easily earned a bbs shave. With only a few single-edge shaves under my belt I feel that my technique has really improved.

I did a three pass shave, including against the grain, along with some touching up. The Stirling Soap Co. Faskally was a real champion. The performance was top-notch as always and the scent is an absolute 10 out of 10. If you have the chance to get your hands on this soap, do it! It smells amazing! It's inspired by Tom Ford Grey Vetiver incase you're wondering.

Overall today's shave was thoroughly enjoyable.

Shave on gentlemen.
