This isn’t about making the skin on your hands soft. I’d actually rather not have the person on the other end of my hand shake think “gee whiz this dude sure has soft hands…” This is about preventing spontaneous knuckle splitting, thumb cracking, and open bleeding those of us in drier climates get stuck with at this time of year.
We have pets so I’m washing my hands a lot. I take hot showers and use bar soap. I leave for my morning run in the bitter cold at 6am. All of that adds up to dry skin on my hands. A split opened up on my right index finger’s middle knuckle when I gripped my steering wheel last week. Blood everywhere. An open wound like that will make you think twice about flesh eating bacteria the next time you go to grab some barbells at the gym.

It's nice when a brand warns their customers in advance of raising their prices.
Spring ready sneakers, grooming goods, watches, etc. Saddle up. Amazon's spring sale is on.
New sportcoats. Italian desert boots. J. Crew dips their promo-toes into spring.
From de-scaling irons to shining shoes to smelling coat pits. Let's clean up our act.
New Seikos are on sale, and J. Crew's Suit event is expiring soon.
The two Bs go head to head, collar to collar, and lapel to lapel.
