Hobson Brown and Billy Nachman founded Criquet in Austin in 2010 to recreate the vintage four-button-placket golf shirts of their prep-school youth; the organic-cotton shirts are made in the USA and Peru, with early backing from actor Luke Wilson.
Best for Vintage polos, organic cotton
Criquet Shirts was founded in Austin, Texas in 2010 by Hobson Brown and Billy Nachman, two New York natives who grew up together during the prep-school fashion era of the 1980s. According to the brand's own account, the impetus was nostalgia for a specific style of vintage golf shirt - Nachman's own well-worn family heirloom, nicknamed 'The Doctor Jack' - that the pair could no longer find on the market and decided to design and produce themselves. The resulting product line is built around 100% organic cotton and a four-button placket, styled as an old-school golf shirt reinterpreted with what the brand calls an Austin sensibility. Actor and Texas native Luke Wilson became an early brand partner. One caveat found in research: a Yelp listing for a specific Criquet Shirts retail address in Austin (1603 S 1st St) is marked closed as of an August 2026 update, though this appears to be one physical storefront rather than evidence the company itself has ceased operating.

Ministry of Supply is a Boston-founded (2012) apparel brand built by MIT-connected founders, applying NASA-derived phase-change material technology and other lab-tested fabrics to machine-washable suits, shirts and workwear.
Best for NASA-tech polos, performance; Apollo NASA polos; Hybrid performance polos; Velocity athletic polos
Ministry of Supply was founded in 2012 by Gihan Amarasiriwardena, Kevin Rustagi, Kit Hickey and Aman Advani, who met through MIT's Entrepreneurship Center in 2011. The brand's signature technology traces to phase-change materials (PCMs) originally investigated by NASA's Johnson Space Center for temperature regulation in spacesuit gloves; the founders licensed the same PCM technology from Outlast Technologies, the patent holder, and applied it to dress shirts designed to respond to body heat.
The company launched publicly via Kickstarter in 2012, raising roughly $429,000 against an original $30,000 goal, before opening a showroom in Boston and moving into online and retail sales.

American custom shirtmaker — online configurator with one-piece collar as a standard option. Made-to-measure and custom fits.
Best for American custom one-piece collar shirts
Blank Label was founded in Boston in 2008 by Danny Wong, Zeeshan Sheikh and Fan Bi, then a Babson College student who left school in 2009 to build the company full time. It launched as an online-only custom-shirt maker, letting customers configure fit, fabric and details, collar style, plackets, monograms, through a web-based tool rather than a traditional made-to-measure appointment. The founders initially pitched the brand at a young, style-forward customer, but usage data showed their actual buyers skewed toward white-collar professionals in their late thirties, and the company repositioned around that clientele.
To address the limits of a purely digital fitting process, Blank Label opened its first physical "pattern room" in Boston in 2013, giving customers an in-person fitting that fed back into their saved online pattern for future orders. The company later expanded from shirts into custom suits and other made-to-order menswear, continuing to operate primarily through its online configurator backed by physical fitting locations.
In January 2024, Blank Label's run as an independent brand ended: it merged with Black Lapel and Ratio Clothing, folding into the Black Lapel brand as part of a stated combination of "over 50 years of collective expertise" in custom clothing. Former Blank Label customer accounts were migrated to Black Lapel's platform.

Corridor is the independent New York label Dan Snyder started in 2013 while sewing in the Garment District. It makes original textiles and clothing shaped by folk Americana, produced with family-run workshops, and covers shirts, knitwear, outerwear, footwear. Four shops trade in New York, including 245 Elizabeth Street in Nolita, with three more in Los Angeles. Design stays in Brooklyn, where the brand is based.
Best for Original textiles, shirts and knitwear designed in Brooklyn
Corridor began in 2013, when Dan Snyder was sewing in the Garment District and working out of a walk-up apartment in the East Village. The name comes from the Northeast Corridor bus line he rode at the time. The label describes itself as Brooklyn based and independent, drawing on folk Americana, and it makes original textiles rather than buying finished cloth. Production runs through family-run workshops in several countries, which the brand names as a deliberate choice rather than a sourcing note. The collection covers shirts, knitwear, outerwear, sweats, trousers, footwear. Accessories and a small homeware line sit alongside. Corridor also keeps a bookshelf section, which reads as an extension of the same interests in art and music. Seven shops are listed. Four sit in New York, at 245 Elizabeth Street in Nolita, 165 Dekalb Avenue in Fort Greene, 322 Bleecker Street in the West Village and 145 Wythe Avenue in Williamsburg. Three more are in Los Angeles, on North Larchmont Boulevard, California Avenue in Venice and Echo Park Avenue. Appointments can be booked at each address, and the brand still lists its design work as happening in Brooklyn.

Faherty is a clothing brand founded by twin brothers Mike and Alex Faherty, whose beach upbringing informs its casual style. The range includes shirts and knitwear alongside trousers and dresses, with accessories available for women and men. Its website also describes collaborations with Native designers, which should be distinguished from the wider clothing collection.
Best for Casual clothing and beach-influenced everyday layers
Faherty is a family-owned clothing brand established in 2013. Its official story presents the business through casual clothing for adults and children, supported by swim and accessories plus a home-goods line. Several programmes give the assortment a wider structure. Native Designed identifies collaborations with Native artists, while Second Wave Resale keeps existing Faherty pieces in circulation. The company also maintains partnership and sustainability alongside social-impact sections that sit beside its product catalogue. Clothing is organized around recurring wardrobe categories such as shirts and knitwear as well as trousers. Dresses and outerwear complete the wardrobe. Named groups including the Western Collection, Rugged Ivy Collection and Reserve Collection provide a more specific design direction within that everyday framework. Stretch Terry and movement-oriented shirts emphasize comfort and repeated wear rather than formal novelty. These facts make the brand's position legible: it builds a broad casual wardrobe, then uses partnerships and resale to add authorship and a second life to selected pieces. The family ownership and 2013 starting point provide the business context, while the named collections and programmes show how Faherty differentiates its clothing from a generic multi-category apparel offer.

Ivy League clothier founded in 1902 near Yale's campus by Jacobi Press, credited with popularizing the natural-shoulder 'sack suit' and Shaggy Dog shetland sweater. NYC flagship sits by the Yale Club at 51 E 44th St; second shop at 501 Madison Ave.
Best for True Ivy oxford shirts.
J. Press was founded in 1902 in New Haven, Connecticut, by Jacobi Press, a Latvian immigrant who partnered with local tailor Herman Goldbaum to open a shop serving Yale's undergraduates. The company became closely associated with the 'Ivy League look' - natural-shoulder, undarted sack suits, Harris Tweed jackets, flap-pocket oxford shirts, and reversible balmacaan coats. By the 1920s the shop's reputation extended to cultural figures including Cary Grant and Duke Ellington. J. Press also built a second life in Japan: its clothing appeared in the 1965 photo book 'Take Ivy,' fueling a decades-long 'Ametora' fashion obsession there. In New York, the brand's flagship operates at 51 East 44th Street, across from Grand Central Terminal, with a second shop at 501 Madison Avenue.

NYC Soho pioneer 1994 — curated menswear and womenswear, reverse-seam signature shirt, first US carrier of Acne and Maison Kitsuné.
Best for Refined shirting, casual
Steven Alan opened his namesake store in Manhattan's Soho neighborhood in 1994, becoming known for an exceptional curatorial eye that identified emerging fashion talent. In 1999, Alan launched his first collection, anchored by the 'Reverse Seam Shirt', which became a cult signature piece distinguished by twisted plackets and external seams—details reflecting Alan's obsessive approach to fabric and construction. The brand expanded through a dedicated showroom opened in 1996 and built a loyal following through tailored basics for both men and women grounded in idiosyncratic design choices. Steven Alan was the first US retailer to carry Acne Studios, Maison Kitsuné, Engineered Garments and Mansur Gavriel, establishing the store as a discovery point for refined international design. The company's multi-brand approach and commitment to quality essentials positioned it as a pioneer of the Soho retail scene during the 1990s indie retail expansion.

Wythe makes menswear drawing on American sportswear, including oxford shirts and denim shirts with pearl-snap fastenings. Peter Middleton launched the label before its first physical shop opened on Orchard Street in 2023. Some overcoats use Donegal tweed and are made in New York, a product-specific statement rather than a collection-wide origin.
Best for Americana-inspired shirts and outerwear in New York
Wythe began with Peter Middleton's interest in familiar American garments, including oxford shirts and denim pearl snaps. The label's account describes looking back at older examples of those clothes while developing its own versions. Shirts and sweatshirts therefore provide a practical starting point for understanding the range beyond its general Americana references.
The business first traded online before opening a physical shop at 59 Orchard Street in 2023. That opening gave the label a New York retail address where its own collection could be presented together. Earlier reporting on the company concerns its launch period and the difficulties of building the business during that time.
Outerwear adds another strand to the collection, including overcoats made in New York's Garment District from custom Donegal tweeds. The weaving and garment-making locations describe different stages of production, rather than competing claims about one place. They also apply to those coats, not automatically to every shirt or accessory sold by the brand. A purchase should therefore be considered at the level of the particular garment and its stated construction.

Taylor Stitch was founded in San Francisco in 2008 by Michael Maher, Barrett Purdum and Michael Armenta, aiming to make durable, classic menswear built to outlast fast-fashion cycles. The brand's distinguishing mechanism is its 'Workshop' crowdfunding platform, which lets customers back new designs before Taylor Stitch commits to full production - reducing overproduction and waste common in apparel manufacturing.

Tommy Bahama was created in 1992 by Bob Emfield and Tony Margolis, two garment-industry veterans who first met as sales reps for Britannia Sportswear in the 1970s. While spending time at their vacation homes on Florida's Gulf Coast, the pair invented a fictional persona, 'Tommy Bahama,' to embody a permanent-vacation, beachcomber lifestyle, and built a menswear line - later expanded to women's apparel, swimwear, footwear and home furnishings - around that idea. Despite the tropical branding, the company's operational base has always been Seattle, a detail the brand itself leans into as an intentional contrast. In 2003, Tommy Bahama was acquired by Oxford Industries, an Atlanta-based apparel manufacturer, and it remains part of that portfolio today.

Best for Resort shirts, linen
Inserch began in April 1985 as a boutique in Hackensack, New Jersey, in a predominantly African American and Latinx community where customers were looking for clothing they couldn't find at mainstream retailers. That demand shaped the brand's signature piece, a wool leisure suit, and set the template for what Inserch still does: pairing eclectic fabrics and colorways with classic menswear tailoring, cut in extended sizing. Family-owned and operated across four decades, the label expanded from its original leisure suits into a fuller menswear range that includes blazers, walking suits, and casual resort pieces such as linen camp shirts suited to vacation wear. Inserch has grown into a minority-owned brand carried nationwide and in the U.S. Virgin Islands, and its designs have appeared in television productions including Pose and Barry. The resort shirting referenced in the prior listing is a real part of the current catalog, but it sits alongside a broader menswear offering rather than being the whole business.

Best for Silk shirts, camp collar
Nat Nast the man founded his shirt company in Kansas City, Missouri, in 1946, and is widely credited within vintage-fashion circles as having produced the first bowling shirt, earning him the nickname 'The King of Bowling Shirts.' His shirts introduced inverted pleats known as the 'Action Back,' made from washable rayon, and the company grew a business supplying customized, embroidered shirts to bowling teams, sponsors, and colleges and universities. The original company was sold in the 1970s. In 2000, Nat Nast's two daughters revived the name as Nat Nast Luxury Originals, basing new designs on their father's originals but working in silk and adding embroidered artwork, repositioning the brand around camp-collar and bowling-shirt styling aimed at a nostalgia-driven, mid-century Americana aesthetic. The brand has since done licensed collaborations, including with the World Series of Poker.

Best for Western clothing, boots and individually shaped hats
Paradise Western Co. is a western-wear shop at 118 South Second Street in Livingston, Montana, selling clothing alongside hats and boots. The catalogue includes workshirts and jeans, with wild rags and smaller accessories providing other ways to shop. These categories serve different uses, from everyday clothing to equipment chosen around riding or ranch work.
A 2025 Mountain Mule interview with founder Meg Krusemark describes her background in apparel design and leatherworking. It also explains the shop's custom hat-shaping work, using steam to shape open-crown hats for individual customers. That service is distinct from claiming that every hat sold by the shop is manufactured there from raw materials.
For a hat, discuss the intended shape and fit rather than choosing only from a photograph. Boots and clothing need their own fit decisions, particularly when the purchase is meant for regular use. Ask about the materials and maker of the item itself, since a Livingston retail address does not establish a common manufacturing origin for the whole assortment.
