Thread: any shops in NYC area??

does anybody that lives in the NYC area know of a shop that sells wet shave equipment?? i've been looking everywhere and nothing.... thanks.

Indeed! You have some of the best places in the nation...

I haven't been everywhere, but I really like Pasteur's Pharmacy - They have stores at 34th and Park and 62nd and Lexington. Just up the way, you have Cambridge Chemists at 64th and Lex. Their prices are not cheap, but what a selection in one place!

Down in the Village there is CO Bigalow on Ave. of the Americas. There are several AOS stores in the City, but you can visit them in many places.

The flagship Saks store had a pretty wide selection of stuff among the men's section and fragrances.

Most of the stuff you'll find is creams, soaps, scents, brushes, etc. I don't know of any places with a quality selection of razors/strops.

Let us know how you do and enjoy.

That is a great source there. Of course there are two pasteur's stores. Cambridge Chemists...C.O. Bigelow. Art of Shaving. The list goes on and on...

There are tons of places, as the guys above have mentioned.

You might want to take a look over at the Badger & Blade wiki....there is actually a map with pinpoints and addresses of many of the most popular stops.

Good luck!

I have been to a few of those and they are great places. I also have a few places where you can get a straight razor shave. If I can still find the name, I will pass it on.
