Your winter beard doesn't have to be boring. Spice it up and stay warm in style.

Let's get those stockings stuffed.

With the introduction of multi-blade cartridge razors, we traded the idea of convenience for a huge contribution to plastic waste in the world. The good news: there's a better way.

The holidays are coming, and gift giving season is upon us. We've curated a list of perfect gifts for every budget and price point.

Here's our all-inclusive guide on how to travel with your Supply gear and where to pack it.

Here it is. The ultimate reveal on everything that went down behind the scenes with our Shark Tank episode. Here's everything they didn't show on TV.  

How do you get ready for your time in the Shark Tank? Lots and lots of preparation.

It may have taken us three years, but we finally met the sharks. Here's part one of our journey into the Shark Tank.

Robert and Kevin duked it out for a chance to make a $300K investment in Supply. Watch what happens!

Our experience in the tank was three years in the making. On Sunday, November 3rd we took a swim with the sharks, and it was a once in a lifetime experience.

We can FINALLY share the biggest secret we've ever had to keep. We're going to be on ABC's Shark Tank next Sunday, November 3rd at 8 PM CST.

My dream since day one has always been to offer my own blades. That day has finally coming. I’m pleased to present the brand new Supply Injector Blades.

The first shave with a Single Edge or safety razor may seem intimidating since the idea of one blade seems foreign as opposed to four or five. We've compiled a list of all the mistakes not to make when getting started on your...

It's true. It's time to change your status to single. Big razor has spouted off billions of marketing over the past decades telling you more blades will equal a closer shave. In actuality, a single...

The Environmental Protection Agency once estimated that 2 billion plastic razors and refill blades get tossed out in the U.S. each year. 2 billion...in 1990. Since calculating this heart breaking reality, the EPA has not tracked the impact of disposable...

Your razor is only half of what gets you that incredibly close shave. The other half? Your trusty razor blade. You can have a beautiful tool, but if the blade doesn't perform to your satisfaction, it's...

We saw a problem with the toiletry bags on the market. None of them organized our gear and protected them during any travels, so we created the Everyday Dopp. It's designed to accompany you on every adventure...

Before discovering the Single Edge, our founder used to use electric razors daily to get his shave. Then, once he discovered a vintage Schick single blade razor, the days of the electric razor were no more. So...

Aloe Vera is one of the most diverse and beneficial plants that nature has blessed us with. We're most familiar with it's gel form, but believe it or not, Aloe Vera comes in multiple forms that can replace many harsh, chemical-loaded products...

It's the official first day of Movember. As you prepare to grow that lovely stache, it's always best to have an end goal in mind. We're here to help.

It's Movember, and we're in the business of mo-tivating donations for men's health research this month. Ridiculous puns aside, the health issues facing men today are serious and worth bringing as much attention to as possible. That's...

The time has come to grow out your stache for a good cause. Why?Movember is a movement that uses your facial hair to bring attention to serious health issues that men encounter both physically and mentally. Most importantly...

Yes. We're finally talking all things head shaving. Sure, the Single Edge was designed for an incredibly close and comfortable face shave, but does it work on heads? The short answer: yes, but with the right technique!

While the DE razor is an excellent tool for wetshaving, once the technique is mastered, there are many advantages for using the Single Edge razor instead. See why so many of our customers are making the switch....

In the past few months, I have noticed a major spike in women customers interested in using the Single Edge and wetshaving in general. Women are starting to realize that we overpay for a mediocre...

We've been working on bringing the Everyday Dopp to life for over a year, and we're excited that it's almost here. Read on for more behind the scenes about the creation of our biggest leather...

"Where did you come up with this idea?" "Why design a razor?" We get asked these questions ALL the time. In the past we've shared why a single blade is better, but we've never given the back story to where it...

When you first decide to start shaving with a single blade, it can be incredibly intimidating. Where do I start? One of the best places to start is by mapping the growth of your beard. Think...

We set out to design the world's best dopp kit - and ended up designing the world's best everyday carry case in the process.

It was three days into a west coast road trip - somewhere between Monterey and Santa Cruz - that Jennifer and I decided to take the leap.

We have some news today that's a year-and-a-half in the making: brand new leather travel cases are in stock and ready to ship.

Dear Supply Family, We write you today with tremendous joy and thanksgiving. A week ago today, our company grew from 2 to 3. 

We've been absent from our Field Notes for a long time, BUT with good reason. We're back to fill you in on what we've been up to and even more fun, what’s to come.

It's true. The Single Edge is the easiest way to begin shaving with a safety razor. However, as with any precision tool, there are important guidelines you will want to keep in mind when using...

Our most recent Kickstarter campaign has completely blown us away - we're still pinching ourselves that we raised a quarter of a million dollars. And this week, we’re shipping our first batch of Single Edge 2.0 razors and...

We did it! Our new Kickstarter campaign was were funded in less than three hours, and we're up to 600% funding just a week in. 🙌 🙌

I'll be honest. I'm not sure we can pull it off. But we're going for it anyways. We're going to try to put together an entire Kickstarter campaign in 12 days. 

A question we get often is, "Which of your scents do you recommend?" Of course, the answer is all of them, but that's not very helpful, is it? So let's take a look.

Handcrafted out of solid white marble, and rough finished to build the perfect lather. You didn't think it would be a regular old boring shave bowl, did you?

You already know that we create the finest grooming gear on the planet (humble brag). But now, we’re taking them to a whole new level - and we're giving you first access, plus special early-bird...

We’re back again this week with more prototypes. But this time, we’re working in leather. The super-sexy, full-grain, new-car-smell kind of leather. And the results are pretty killer.

On the surface, my first Kickstarter project was a complete success. Behind the scenes, though, a completely different story was unfolding.

This week, we're doing a little something different for The Field Notes. We have some new prototypes in house, and I'm taking you behind the scenes of our design and prototyping process. 

This week we're taking a break from our entrepreneurial highs to give you a thoughtfully crafted list of gift ideas for you and yours this Valentines. Share the love.

Last week, I auditioned for Shark Tank! It was a lot of fun - and a great learning experience for pitching my business in general.

Leaving a cushy corporate job can be terrifying. Especially when you're stepping out into the unknown. But what you're stepping into can be worth all the sacrifice.

No, it's not clickbait. I'm really quitting. But before you go stocking up on your favorite razor blades and shave soap, I need to back up and tell you more of the story.

We're hitting pause today and taking a moment to reflect on what an incredible year 2016 was here at Supply. As we look forward to all we have in store next year, we thought we...
