Our Story
BOLT Skin + Shave was started with one simple goal in mind:
To answer the needs of men who shave their legs and body with products that are second to none and a customer experience so seamless and enjoyable you simply can't say no.
We were tired of using products built for women. Men's leg and body hair is different. It was time to come up with a purpose built solution. We built a better razor, with blades perfectly tuned, angled, spaced and optimized for men's body hair. We iterated significantly on our formulas for our shave products striking a beautiful balance between cleansing (exfoliating leg scrub), cushioning (shave butter) and moisturizing (post shave lotion).
Scrub. Shave. Soothe. It's that simple. And we couldn't be more pleased to help you say goodbye to mediocre shaving, and hello to the smoothest, safest and most efficient shave of your life.
We saw a gap in the marketplace...
We recognized the number of men out there who shave their legs. They've had no product, no hero, no champion. The marketplace offered men's razors for shaving faces, and women's razors for shaving legs. We tried shaving cream formulated for faces on our legs in the shower, and it just didn't do the trick. And let's be honest, raspberry rain is a fantastic fragrance...if you're into raspberries...in the rain. We prefer our bergamot and sandle wood. And thus, BOLT was born. We're hoping to be here for a long time...but at very least, we'll be here for a darn good time.
Founder's note
"Hey folks. I'm Adam Barker, and I'm incredibly proud to be the founder of BOLT Skin + Shave.
I believe in many things that have helped to inform what BOLT is and what we will grow to be. I believe in working hard, and playing harder. I believe in building a quality product that will stand use and abuse and still perform. And I believe in gratitude. BOLT doesn't exist without you.
And thus, the most important part of this entire equation is, in fact, you. If you’re happy with your BOLT products, then we’re happy.
I’d like to think we’ve done our homework in putting nothing less than the best razors and shave products in your hands, but your insight and ideas are valued and play a key role in making sure we continue to innovate and hit the mark with our offering.
Please feel free to send me a personal note with any and all feedback. I would love to hear from you.
I have been shaving my legs for 30 years. I honestly didn't think someone could come up with anything that would make a difference over the current options out there. I was wrong! Bolt has figured out how to provide a smoother, nick free shave. I'm hooked.
