“I could tell from that very moment that our creative partnership would most definitely yield something incredibly special...” John Petrucci. Captain Fawcett is beyond delighted to announce an extraordinary Limited Edition Gift Set that’s quite simply out of this world. Captain Fawcett’s magnificent ‘Nebula’ Signature Series collaboration with Dream Theater’s John Petrucci is a work of true Majesty.

The Captain has come ashore with a cargo of aromatic oils. Eager to share the delectable fragrances discovered in far flung lands, Fawcett’s Master Blender has created a delightfully refreshing hair tonic reminiscent of traditional barbershops the world over & also a contemporary texturising mist, for giving one’s hair a kick of sea air. Keep your eyes on the horizon my fine fellows, we roll with the rising tide. 

2021 looms large and who knows what it will bring? How does one keep one’s spirits up in the eye of the storm? Trust yours truly gentlemen, a little self-care goes a long way. Take time for a treat. An early morning run, a steaming hot bath, a cup of strong Darjeeling, a generously buttered crumpet, nice clean socks, an afternoon snooze, a walk in the rain, a game of Scrabble, a chat with a chum. 

"I thought I told you be be prepared". For those with the correct kit, this season of frost and, perchance, snow, is most bracing and jolly good for the soul! Whether one is manning the Mount Vostock weather station, tramping across the ruddy West Norfolk fens or, indeed, dashing into the briny for a wild cold water swim ....these winter essentials will restore spirits and warmth in no time! 

By Jove it’s been a somewhat bothersome year. There is light on the horizon folks and I’d wager all are now due a spot of indulgence, a touch of luxury. Indeed, I’d venture even the most formal gentleman yearns for a little sparkle. Whether you are in search of the perfect gift or more than ready to treat yourself, I present a list of gentlemanly treasures all to be found at Captain Fawcett’s Emporium.

Some traditions are worth holding on to, no matter how old we are fortunate enough to become! Whatever you call the old boy, Santa Claus, Father Xmas, Saint Nick...do leave a little something out for him. He’s still partial to a mince pie and although Mother insists he prefers sherry, I can vouch for the man being perfectly content with an aged Cognac. Whatever, make his welcome a warm one.

It's June 4th, the Founding Day of Captain Fawcett Ltd in this, his magnificent 10th Anniversary year. We begin with a tin! 10 years ago, as the RHMan stirred his scented wax in an old baked bean can, little did he know that this experiment would lead to marvellous adventures across the globe, the like of which he had never imagined. Leading him to introduce a Limited Edition Anniversary Wax. 

I am delighted to announce that Natural Moustache Champion and Handlebar Hero and talented recycling artist, Snorrie Morrie, aka Marcel Tel Haar, is now appointed a Captain Fawcett Ambassador Extraordinaire. Please read on for a Q&A with the man himself... also find out that Snorriemorrie isn’t just a funny word. It means something. And something to be proud of.

Captain Fawcett is delighted to present an outstanding new Signature Series in collaboration with Viraj Singh of The Jodhpur Company. The 'Maharajah' Moustache Wax, Beard Oil and Beard Balm are now available. Redolent of balmy air perfumed by aromatic smoke and a crush of bright petals stirring the heat of enchanted Indian nights.

Captain Fawcett’s latest collaboration, ‘The Chap: Debonair Moustache Wax’ is perfect for the contemplative connoisseur.  Redolent of a briar pipe’s sweet smoke as savoured by a fellow from the comfort of his fireside armchair or upon a porch on a long summer’s evening. Inspired by the quarterly journal’s silhouetted pipe smoking dandy, it is the fragrance of slow pleasures. 

The days are hastening on and I do hope you are in the midst of merriment or, should that not be your cup of egg nog, preparing to take a some time away from daily demands. Do remember that whether you are in search of gifts for dear ones or ready for some well-earned personal indulgence, the last UK posting date from Captain Fawcett’s Emporium is 20th December 3pm.

On knows a good beard balm is designed to soften facial hairs, helping to make the beard look much smoother and healthier overall. Captain Fawcett's latest Masterclass demonstrates Mahesh Hayward administering nourishing beard balm to the wondrously snowy whiskers of Captain Fawcett Ambassador Kenneth Johnsson whilst explaining how to do the same at home. 

As the Right Hand Man and I travel the world through extremes of climate and terrain, people often comment on our stiff upper lips and ponder ‘how do they keep it up?’ Well, dear chums, the Right Hand Man made a most engaging film, now showing on You Tube screens from Southport to Singapore. Naturally, being a man of letters, I took notes for my journal.  You might find them informative... 

How does one achieve a simply exceptional shave - one which caresses a valiant visage with a blade so keen it leaves one’s chin as smooth as a silk scarf? In the latest Fawcett Masterclass, excellent fellow Mahesh Hayward, barber and founder of All Us Men is seen demonstrating how to succeed at this most sensitive of tasks using an assortment of the Captain's shaving essentials. 

I present Mastering the Art of Beard Oil with Gentleman and Barber, my dear chum Mahesh Hayward. Fawcett Man Corey Doades relaxes in the chair at Captain Fawcett’s Marvellous Barbershop Museum during the making of this highly instructional and most entertaining film made for the Fawcett Ministry of Information. Watch and learn gentlemen.....Roll film.

The Fawcett Files: introducing the ambassador extraordinaire Russell Bristow. Name, Rank and Serial Number: Russell Bristow, Tree Surgeon, Skateboarder and Dali Moustache Champion @Dangeruss777 on Instagram and Twitter. From grooming and style to hirsute heroes and proudest moments, a Q&A with the man behind the moustache...

I recently had the exquisite honour of taking tea and cheesecake galore with that delightfully delectable minx, vintage model and self confessed food lover Miss Emmerald Barwise.  As she tipped the saucepot over her outstanding pasties, it struck me that you too would be seduced by her undoubted charms and so, for your pleasure, we conducted an intimate interview by way of an introduction. 

Captain Fawcett is thrilled to announce a simply magnificent achievement for this year’s Barbersride. On the 11th August a fine fellowship of mad-cap adventurers, united by their passion for bikes and barbering, set off on an epic 5 day mission to support Make-A-Wish. The third BarbersRide was an absolute triumph, with funds reaching over £16,000. 

Celebrating BarbersRide 2019, Captain Fawcett is delighted to present a tonsorial treasure trove of barbering tools in one Special Edition Package, providing the modern barber with classic designs, honed and enhanced over centuries in accordance with the Captain’s own insistence on superb craftsmanship. Essentials for the modern barber’s craft with a special introductory offer!

I am simply delighted to present Captain Fawcett’s Coffee of Choice... a most delicious discovery sourced from the hills of the East Congo. Imagine, a misty morning in the verdant hills above Lake Edward upon the border of Congo and Uganda, in the western branch of the East African Rift. For it is here, a few miles south of the Equator, that a splendidly thrilling tale thus unfolds...
