Ready to upgrade your Shaving Routine ? Harry’s Plus

When it comes to shaving, most guys don’t want to overthink it—they just want a clean, comfortable shave that doesn’t leave their face looking like a battlefield. But for the team at Harry’s, “just good enough” has never been good enough. That’s why, more than twelve years after launching their first razor, they’re back with something entirely new: Harry’s Plus—the brand’s most advanced, comfortable shaving system yet.

So what makes it different? Everything.

Comfort Is King—And Harry’s Plus Rules Supreme. Ask any guy what he wants out of a shave, and chances are the answer is the same: smooth skin without the nicks, cuts, or post-shave irritation. That insight has been at the core of Harry’s DNA since day one—and Harry’s Plus is the culmination of a decade-long obsession with getting every detail just right.

At the heart of it all is a breakthrough pivoting razor, designed to glide across the contours of your face like it’s reading a map. If you’ve ever had to manually adjust pressure or do awkward jawline contortions mid-shave, this one’s for you.

After testing dozens of springs, axes, and prototypes (and yes, probably annoying plenty of engineers in the process), Harry’s developed a pivot system that naturally adapts to your skin, applying just the right amount of pressure—no more, no less. That means fewer strokes, less irritation, and no more second passes.

While most razors are content with welded blades, Harry’s took things further. Their five-blade cartridge is forged from a single piece of steel—not two pieces mashed together. Why does that matter? It gives the blades more flex, reduces tugging, and ultimately makes the whole experience feel smoother and more precise.

And the blade architecture? Let’s just say it’s doing more than just looking sleek. With progressive spacing and a design that mimics a “bed of nails,” Harry’s Plus ensures better skin support and closer contact. The result? Less redness, fewer bumps, and a whole lot more confidence when you’re done.

Under the nose. Along the neckline. Around that stubborn mole you’ve had since uni. Shaving around tricky spots can make or break your grooming routine. Harry’s didn’t overlook this. The refined precision trimmer—sharper and more accurate than ever—is made for tight detailing, and the compact cartridge profile means you can manoeuvre with ease.

Even the handle has been reimagined. With over 100 prototypes tested, the final design features a matte-metal finish, a balanced, weighted feel, and an ergonomic tapered neck that gives you pro-level control without trying too hard. It’s subtle, sophisticated, and, honestly, just feels right in your hand.

Oh, and if you’re a sink-tapper? They’ve got you covered with a secure, push-button cartridge connection that clicks in tight and holds its own.

Harry’s Plus isn’t a minor tweak or a flashy rebrand—it’s a full-on reinvention. A razor system built from scratch, engineered for the man who takes his grooming seriously but doesn’t want to pay an arm and a leg for a clean shave.

With Harry’s Plus, the brand has stayed true to its roots: affordable, well-crafted tools that elevate everyday rituals. It’s for the guy who knows that confidence starts with the little things—like a shave that feels effortless and looks sharp.

Because at the end of the day, comfort isn’t just a feature. It’s the whole point.

Harry’s Plus is available now at harrys.com and select retailers. Trust us—your face will thank you.

HARE Today Hare Tomorrow – Fair, Flexible & Fearlessly

When it comes to grooming, many of us are increasingly seeking something smarter than your typical cut and blow-dry. We want a modern experience — one that’s transparent, personalised, and kind to the planet. Enter HARE, the Oxfordshire-based salon brand redefining what it means to get your hair done, with unisex spaces that blend top-tier styling, sustainable thinking, and good old-fashioned fairness.

Gone are the days of overpriced packages or cookie-cutter services. HARE has introduced a truly refreshing model in the grooming world: flexible, fair pricing. Want just a fade and go? No problem. Fancy a full wash and blow-dry? That’s on offer too. Every visit is bespoke to your needs and budget — a pay-as-you-please approach that’s as liberating as it is logical.

This is walk-in hairdressing and barbering, but not as you know it. Think expert fades, fringe touch-ups, beard trims and classic cuts — all under one roof, without the unnecessary extras (unless you want them, of course).

The HARE experience goes beyond the chair. Their very own unisex hair and skincare range is crafted right here in the UK, and it ticks all the right boxes: vegan-friendly, cruelty-free, water-based, and genuinely great to use. Clean formulas meet clean ethics, making HARE one of the few salons that actually practices what it preaches when it comes to eco-conscious grooming.

Take for example the Salted Hare Salt Spray, a beachy-texture-enhancer made with real sea salt for that laid-back, tousled look. Perfect for guys or girls looking to add volume and wave, it’s simple, effective, and free from nasties. A few spritzes post-shower, air-dry or blow-dry, and you’re good to go.

Founded in 2013 by brothers James and George Talbot, HARE has always championed something bigger than good hair. From day one, it’s been about creating inclusive, casual spaces where everyone — regardless of style, gender, or budget — feels genuinely welcome. It’s a place where the vibe is friendly, the service is personal, and the costs are transparent. No hidden fees. No unnecessary fluff.

And in a world increasingly conscious of its environmental footprint, HARE’s partnership with the Green Salon Collective is one of its most standout moves. Together, they recycle hair waste for surprisingly useful things — like mopping up oil spills or enriching compost. Yes, even your trim could be helping to clean up.

HARE salons offer the same chilled, values-led experience. Each space is unisex, unpretentious and effortlessly cool — a far cry from sterile chains or chaotic barber shops. Pop in for a quick tidy-up or a full refresh, and walk out looking (and feeling) like the best version of yourself.

At Clothes Make The Man, we’re always on the lookout for brands doing things differently — and HAREis a shining example of how modern grooming should be. With fair pricing, flexible service, and an unwavering commitment to sustainability, they’re not just cutting hair — they’re cutting through the noise.

So, if you’re looking for a trim that won’t cost the Earth (literally and figuratively), do yourself a favour and pay HARE a visit. Your hair, your wallet, and the planet will thank you.

The North Face Launches “Red Box” – A Bold New Chapter in Lifestyle Wear

For over half a century, The North Face has been synonymous with exploration, resilience, and iconic outerwear. Now, the legendary brand is channeling that heritage into a new direction with the launch of Red Box – a lifestyle collection designed for those who Never Stop Exploring, even in the everyday.

Inspired by the irreverent spirit of the 70s and the bold attitude of the 90s, Red Box redefines what it means to wear your adventure. This isn’t technical outerwear repurposed for the street. This is sportswear conceived from the ground up with streetwear confidence and expedition-ready roots.

A Daily Uniform for the Untamable. Red Box is for the renegades — the ones whose journeys don’t stop at the trailhead. The collection leans into relaxed, oversized fits, high-quality construction, and that unmistakable North Face durability. Think premium materials, warm undertones, and garments built to be layered, worn, and lived in.

Signature touches like branded antique silver snaps, Vislon zips, and the instantly recognizable 30mm Red Box woven label lend authenticity and distinction to each piece.

Anchored by a carefully curated selection of pieces, Red Box is both a tribute and an evolution — classic silhouettes reimagined for the modern explorer.

Red Box Down Jacket – Vintage-inspired, snap-closure, and effortlessly cool. The kind of jacket that bridges alpine legacy with urban minimalism.

Red Box Coaches Jacket – Waterproof, layer-ready, and steeped in retro attitude. A nod to the early eras of North Face adventure gear.

Red Box Packable Hooded Wind Jacket – Lightweight and built for motion, this windbreaker riffs on ‘90s vibes while staying thoroughly modern.

Red Box Hoodie – A classic staple reengineered with a premium fit and crafted from Climate Conscious Cotton.

Red Box Short Sleeve Tee – Heavyweight, 100% Climate Conscious Cotton, and as soft as it is substantial.

Red Box Packable Wind Pants – Lightweight, wind-resistant, and ideal for travel or trail, thanks to innovative WINDWALL fabric.

Red Box Sweatpants – Utility meets comfort, with bungee cord cuffs, practical pockets, and a fabric blend that’s better for the planet.

Red Box isn’t a limited capsule or seasonal experiment. It’s a permanent fixture in The North Face ecosystem — a consistent, elevated option for those who want their daily uniform to say as much about who they are as where they’ve been.

Whether you’re chasing mountain air or pavement heat, Red Box ensures you look the part, feel the comfort, and carry the legacy.
