Why Goat Hair Brushes Are the G.O.A.T. — Especially at Oxford Brush Company
Share
At Oxford Brush Company, we’re proudly obsessed with brushes — the kind that feel good in the hand, perform beautifully, and stand the test of time. While we offer a carefully curated range of high-quality natural brushes, there’s one material that consistently earns top marks across the board: goat hair.
Gentle, effective, and deeply versatile, goat hair brushes truly are the G.O.A.T. — the Greatest of All Time — and here’s why our customers (and our team) love them.
1. Naturally Soft, Seriously Effective
Goat hair has a softness that synthetic bristles simply can’t replicate. That’s why our goat hair dusting brushes and finishing brushes are a favourite for everything from delicate interiors to luxury shoe care.
They’re:
-
Gentle on polished wood, piano keys, and book spines
-
Kind to skin when used for grooming or body brushing
-
Ideal for picking up and holding fine dust or powders
This softness makes them indispensable for the careful, satisfying work of finishing — whether you’re dressing your boots or wiping down your favourite vintage cabinet.
2. Made to Last — Sustainably
We believe in craftsmanship that respects both materials and the planet. Goat hair is a renewable resource — harvested ethically as a by-product of grooming or shearing — and completely biodegradable. Combined with our responsibly sourced wood handles and timeless design, every brush we make is a piece to keep, not throw away.
A goat hair brush from Oxford Brush Company isn’t just an item. It’s a tool you’ll treasure and use again and again.
3. For Brush Lovers, By Brush Lovers
We started Oxford Brush Company because we couldn't find the kind of brushes we loved — beautiful, functional, tactile tools that feel good to use and look good in your home. Goat hair plays a key role in many of our most-loved items, because it strikes the perfect balance between form and function.
From our artisan-made clothes brushes to our best-selling goat hair dusters, these brushes are made to do a job well — and to bring a quiet joy to doing it.
4. The Ultimate Gift for the Detail-Oriented
Goat hair brushes are often picked up as gifts — and for good reason. They’re thoughtful, luxurious without being flashy, and appeal to anyone who takes pride in the details. Whether it’s a groomer’s brush, a desk duster, or a finishing brush for shoes, goat hair makes the everyday feel a little more special.
