2. What do you think is needed more of in menswear?

People just having fun dressing up. Being into clothing.

It should be fun.

3. And what should there be less of?

Well... probably the opposite of that.

In this day and age — with so much content online — there’s a lot of judgment.

We need more room to make mistakes.

To try stuff out. Learn what your style is.

So yeah, a bit more forgiveness, and a bit less judgment.

4. What’s your favorite brand right now?

Oh man, this feels like a trap — anyone I don’t say is gonna be like, “what the hell?”

But one brand close to my heart is Inis Meáin — the knitwear company out on the Aran Islands of Ireland.

I’ve worked with them recently and I just love what they do. Super authentic story, and the product’s beautiful.

5. Do you have a style icon?

My peers. My colleagues.

The people I work with in menswear.

People I see online, people I follow on Instagram.

That’s constantly where I get inspiration from.

6. What’s your take on vintage and pre-owned?

I love it.

There’s something great about a much-loved garment — the fact that it’s passed on to someone new.

I think it’s in a good place right now, and it’s only going to grow.
