Venroy
Pros
- Australian designed
- Perfect for vacation and Summer
- Incredibly well priced
- Free express shipping based on thresholds
Cons

The brand experiments with unique patterns and technical fabrics like the more durable tencel which makes a perfect pair of shorts and Venroy linen trousers. Then, of course, you have endless choices of linen.
With a brand new flagship shop in the heart of Bondi Beach, and stores in exotic destinations like Capri and Montauk, it’s no wonder they’re so hot right now.

- Ethically sourced
- Transparent production
- Well priced

Cons
- Really slow shipping outside of the USA (like 30 days to Australia slow)

Without a doubt, one of our absolute favourite men’s clothing brands here at DMARGE is Everlane – a company that gets it right with practically everything they produce.
Everlane’s incredible collection of menswear essentials is made to standards that belie their prices, no doubt helped by its direct-to-consumer business model. When Everlane launched in 2010, its principle was that more honesty and transparency were necessary for the fashion industry and retail. They ever release an annual impact report, that’s how much they care about their production.
Everlane’s fabrics are sustainably sourced and everything is made to their ethical standards. The retailer, which was founded in 2010 by CEO Michael Preysman, has stores in Los Angeles, Boston, and New York City if you prefer to touch and feel.
Editor’s note: Everlane is one of the hottest clothing brands for everyday essentials. Try the Everlane T-shirts and chinos. We wear them in the office.

- Doing good for the planet and people

- High-quality hemp and organic cotton made in Mexico (not China)
- Free express shipping on all international orders over $135 USD

The brainchild of world champion surfer Kelly Slater, Outerknown is unquestionably influenced by surfing culture and style, showing that without nature, this sport wouldn’t exist. Thus, it has worked to become one of the most sustainable clothing brands on this list. As many recycled materials as possible are used in the production of all Outerknown clothing and the company will happily take back any well-worn or torn pairs of jeans to repair, recycle or replace, to prevent them from going to landfill.
It’s certainly a stylish brand, with pieces constantly being on trend and being made from quality fabrics that are built to last. What’s great about Outerknown’s clothing is that each piece is unique and has its own feel to it and it will look flattering on any man.
Outerknown clothes may not be cheap, but this is all because the brand aims to provide high-quality and sustainability, so it’s all worth it.
Outerknown’s Blanket Shirts are very popular. These shirts are made from organic cotton and are known for their comfort and versatility. Their Saltwater Slub T-Shirts are made from organic cotton and feature a classic design with a comfortable fit.
Editor’s Note: If it’s good enough for Kelly Slater, it’s good enough for you.

James Perse
Pros
- The most luxurious basics you can find
- Premium material and cotton blends
- Made in the USA
- Sizes up to XXL
Cons
- A premium brand with prices to match
- Free shipping only on orders over $500
James Pearse came from good fashion stock with his father owning the iconic boutique, Maxfield. It’s no wonder he then landed in fashion. Originally making his own baseball caps, which Hollywood’s A-List loved, Pearse then extended his skilled into menswear.
Today, the brand offers premium fabrics and designs inspired by his laid back US West Coast roots. Its style is 100% relaxed and the best example of quiet luxury we’ve seen this side of Los Angeles. Don’t expect to find any loud and obnoxious logos on his clothing, it’s very much if you know, you know.
Start with the best-selling short sleeve crew neck t-shirt, then explore the sueded jersey polo shirts if you’re feeling plucky.

American Giant
Pros
- All products are made in the USA
- Giving back to the community
- Free shipping on order over $100
- Affordable international shipping at $25
Cons
- Sizes only go up to XXL (sorry big guys)
If quality does matter to you above all else, then check out American Giant. The start-up, founded in 2012, makes all of its men’s clothing in the US. This means a closer eye can be kept on production and quality, which has proven to be effective, with its hoodies being rated as “the best ever”.
Besides, since products have great durability, you will not have to replace the pieces anytime soon, bringing you more value for the price.
Their best-sellers surprisingly include the straight-leg Dakota Jeans which are made deep in the heart of texas. If you’re just after sweats, American Giant’s classic hoodie is made in North Carolina. Otherwise, their classic cotton men’s t-shirt is just $35 and it’s made in Los Angeles.
God bless Amercian Giant for keeping it local and good prices to boot too.

Buck Mason
Pros
- Transparent manufacturing
- Uses US grown and made fabrics
- Incredible white t-shirts
Cons
- International shipping was more expensive than the t-shirt we bought
- Only sized up to XXL
Fashion brand Buck Mason admits it takes a slower approach to fashion than the majority of its start-up peers but for a good reason. When other companies have come and gone due to not being able to sustain the demand, Buck Mason aimed to carefully design and develop pieces. This means that they only go on sale when they are truly perfect.
All pieces centre around the staple American menswear ideals of timelessness no matter the season.
Nuck Mason is pretty much everywhere online these days. Meaning every website you visit sometimes is talking about the brand. This can only be a good thing. They also have physical stores in the US too.
Their Hersman Shawl Cardigan is without a doubt the most handsome thing you’ll own this Winter. Otherwise, try their Thermal Long-Sleeve T-shirts with a waffle knit finish (in 250 GSM French rib cotton) to ensure your layers stay stylish.

Quince
Pros
- Free shipping and easy returns for 365 days
- Made for travelling so comfort is supreme
- Use recycled materials
- Transparent comparison against other brands
Cons
- Hard to fault them, really…
This emerging clothing brand hailing from San Francisco aims to cause a huge shakeup with its quality and pricing model. Quince is a direct-to-consumer brand that genuinely does believe luxury quality shouldn’t cost the earth. With all major clothing categories on offer, including t-shirts, pants, and activewear, and with quality pieces for prices that are firmly affordable, Quince could easily become your new favourite male clothing label.
The Quince journey began back when the founders decided to create their own luxury brand after they couldn’t find what they were looking for in terms of clothing, home goods, and jewelry. Now, the company offers unique pieces that make any man feel more powerful.

Alex Mill
Pros
- The perfect balance between premium and basics
- Fashion forward which means some fun items every season
- Available in different retailers around the world
Cons
- Free shipping on orders $200 and up only….
Founded in 2012 with the mission to create the perfect shirt, Alex Mill has now expanded into a trustworthy clothier for guys everywhere. Its commitment is to be as sustainable as possible and one of the methods to doing so is by re-using offcuts of fabrics to make bags. Alex Mill’s very fashion-forward men’s collection sitting somewhere between the beach and work. I’ve picked up a few of their striped t-shirts over the years and have always been impressed… that’s until I put them in a hot wash and kill them. But that’s my fault.
Alex Mill is also stocked on Mr Porter, which says a lot about the brand. As those guys don’t accept shit brands.
If you’re after some heavy suiting for Winter, then try their Mill corduroy blazers and matching corduroy pants to make it a fine ensemble.

Orlebar Brown
Pros
- Swim shorts are the best out there
- 5-year warranty on their swim shorts
Cons
- Crazy expensive since Chanel bought them
- Need some new design inspiration
Another genuine favourite of ours here at DMARGE, Orlebar Brown makes, in our opinion, some of the best-looking and best-value swim shorts around. Add to that a fully-fledged men’s fashion clothing collection that encompasses winter pieces too, and one that makes great use of innovative fabrics, and you have yourself a British brand that needs to be on your shopping list.
Orlebar Brown was founded in 2007 and it operates under Chanel, with Adam Brown being the man behind the brand. One important thing to note is that Orlebar Brown swim shorts are always tested on holiday before being released to the public and all of this takes place to make sure you only buy swimwear of the best quality. These shorts also dry very fast, ensuring comfort throughout your whole trip.
