Which Kent suit brush?

Hi,

Just after thoughts on which suit brush to get. I definitely don't want two - that's overkill in my book.

http://www.kentbrushes.com/shopdispl...lothes+brushes

Trying to decide between the:
- CC20 - double sided; or
- CP6 - chasmere brush.

I'd rather not destroy my suits by brushing them, so the CP6 sounds better...but I'd actually want there to be some point in my brushing of the suit, so if the CP6 is too soft, then that's obviously a valid consideration.

Cheers

cp6
Small enough to pack for travel and it works fine for all fabrics....

if you have both do you mainly use the soft one on your knitwear?

Years ago I got a cp6 from there and didn't notice any blemishes either. It's nice and still as good as new after use almost every morning.

Thankyouthankyouthankyou for the conversation and the link to the Kent seconds store. I've been looking for a decent clothes brush (now that I understand their value, thanks once more SF) but didn't want to break the bank.

I just ordered a pair of the double-sided brushes they have available there. Very reasonable.

I would go with the 20 for home use and get a smaller, one sided for travel. I've got a one sided larger and one of the one-way bruches. Also would recommend getting one of those roller things w/ the roll of sticky tape on it. Easyist way to get off lint and the cat hair, you would spend half the day trying to brush off.

is it really possible to destroy your suits with a brush?
