"Soft" Soap?

Hi guys. I've come across the term "soft" soap a few times recently. How does a soft soap relate to regular soaps and creams? Is it kind of halfway between texture- or firmness-wise? What would be an example of a "soft" soap? (Brand or product line, for instance.) Also, how does a "soft" soap differ, if at all, to regular soaps or creams in usage?

Thank you.:)

Look at Velobra products very Nice !!!

Cella and P.160 do soft soaps.

I found it easier to face lather. +1 Cella and P160, great soaps!

I have some of the vintage P160, awesome stuff. Xpec is sold as a soap, but is more like a Cream, with a texture akin to T&H or Al's Bomb. Queen Charlotte shave soap is also a dense cream, akin to Castle Forbes...

Proraso soap falls into this catagory, somewhat like a very firm cream

i recommend p160 it is an awesome soft soap, yes it is kind of like a half way between a soap and cream but closer to a soap kind of like silly putty if that makes sense (it does in my head).
