NOM by Mühle synthetic fibre shaving brush is a great alternative to badger hair. The synthetic fibres were designed specially for wet shaving. In terms of colour and softness they are similar to pure badger hair and provide performance properties of comparably high quality.

My kind of brush
I love everything about this brush. It outperforms all other synthetic brushes I have owned. There's something about black fibre that makes it far above the rest. The handle is also quite appealing to me. It grips so well during usage. All is all a wonderful purchase!

Fine synthetic brush
I am a fan of synthetic hair brushes and this is excellent for the price. Just the right combination of backbone and softness of tips. Works up a good lather in no time. I would have preferred a more traditional round handle, hence I knocked one star off

Very well
I wanted to buy silvertip, but found this brush and decided to try it . It is very soft, create good lather and grip is very comfortable. 5 stars IMHO.

Is good, but...
So I bought this as a first proper brush for DE shaving. Had been using a cheapo brush which was super hard and the bristles kept on falling off for the longest time before I bought this brush. First impressions, were wow, how freaking soft are the bristles!! Yes, very good brush, especially compared to my old brush. Overall quite happy with it (but really anything is better than my old brush).

Black Fibre
I just got this brush a few days ago and I have to say that it is great. First I have to say that it is a lot bigger than I expected. It is really soft (after a boar brush) and it mixes shaving cream really fast and really well (it makes more foam than my boar brush, with the same amount of cream ). I cannot compare it to badger because I never had one, but I can tell you that I am very pleased with this brush.
