345 Soap Co. is a family-owned artisan soap and grooming company founded by Jon and Annie Patton in Colorado. The company traces its beginnings to 2019, when an interest in making soap at home developed into a small-batch business. Its approach centers on handmade production, straightforward formulations, creative fragrances, and products designed for everyday use.

Within the traditional wet shaving community, 345 Soap Co. is particularly associated with artisan shaving soap. Over time, the brand has also produced complementary grooming products that allow wet shavers to carry a fragrance beyond the shave.

345 Soap Co. Shaving Soap

Shaving soap is a central part of the 345 Soap Co. lineup. Designed to be worked with water and a shaving brush, artisan shaving soap creates the lather used to provide lubrication and cushioning between the razor and skin during a traditional wet shave.

345 Soap Co. soaps have appeared in a variety of fragrance profiles, ranging from bright and fruity combinations to woody, aromatic, barbershop-inspired, and more complex fragrance compositions. This variety gives wet shavers an opportunity to choose a scent based on personal preference while incorporating the soap into an established brush-and-razor routine.

For best results, gradually add water while building the lather rather than trying to reach the final consistency immediately. The exact amount of water needed can vary with the soap, brush, loading method, and local water conditions.

Shaving Soap and Matching Post-Shave Products

One appeal of artisan wet shaving is the ability to coordinate products around a particular fragrance. Depending on the collection and current availability, 345 Soap Co. has offered shaving soap alongside complementary products such as aftershave splashes and post-shave balms.

Using matching products is optional. Some wet shavers enjoy carrying the same fragrance through multiple stages of their routine, while others prefer to mix shaving soaps and post-shave products from different collections.

Because artisan releases and inventory can change, the product grid provides the most current selection available from The Razor Company.

Small-Batch Artisan Wet Shaving

Small-batch production is an important part of the 345 Soap Co. identity. Rather than approaching shaving products as purely functional grooming supplies, artisan soapmakers can experiment with fragrance concepts, seasonal ideas, collaborations, and distinctive themes.

For wet shaving enthusiasts, this makes artisan shaving soap a way to explore different fragrances while maintaining the familiar process of loading a brush, building a lather, and shaving with a safety razor or other traditional razor.

345 Soap Co. fits naturally into this artisan side of traditional wet shaving, particularly for customers who enjoy discovering independent American soapmakers and changing fragrances throughout their shaving rotation.

Choosing a 345 Soap Co. Product

When comparing 345 Soap Co. products, consider both the product format and fragrance profile.

For shaving soap, think about the scent you would enjoy during the shave as well as how it fits into your existing routine. If a matching aftershave or balm is available, consider whether you want the fragrance to continue after shaving.

Fragrance preference is highly individual. Fresh, fruity, woody, aromatic, sweet, and barbershop-style profiles can create very different experiences even when the products serve the same basic shaving purpose.

Availability can also change as individual fragrances or releases rotate through the assortment. Check the current collection above for the 345 Soap Co. products presently available at The Razor Company.
