FOUNDER · DAYTONA BEACH, FL
Miguel Gonzalez
Twenty years wiring homes across Volusia County left my skin dry, cracked, and itchy by the end of every shift.
I tried everything on the shelf. None of it worked. The gift baskets my wife brought home — fancy bars wrapped in linen, smelling like a department store — went straight in the trash.
So I made my own. Eight months of failed batches later, Pine Forge was born.
Read the Full Story
Pine Forge Soap Co. was built from a real problem. I wanted a soap that felt better on my skin, smelled masculine, and did not feel like the same generic product everyone else was selling.
After years of dealing with dry, irritated skin and not finding the kind of bar I actually wanted to use every day, I started making my own. I wanted something with better ingredients, a stronger masculine identity, and scents that felt clean, rugged, and confident without being overpowering.
The goal was never to make another fancy soap brand. The goal was to build men’s grooming products that feel practical, smell good, and make sense for everyday men.
Every Pine Forge product is made with that mindset: clean ingredients, masculine scent profiles, and a straightforward approach to grooming. No fluff. No overly sweet scents. No complicated routine. Just products built for men who actually shower.
