Sometimes considered the American counterpart to Barbour, Spiewak is a New York-based company that also traffics in high-performance, durable outerwear.

Today, Spiewak's parka variations are the most iconic pieces.

Woolrich

Based in Pennsylvania since the 1830s and known for their wool overshirts (with a weight between a heavy button-down and a light jacket), Woolrich and their family of labels is a time-honored heritage brand.

Gant

Best known for their button-down shirts, New Haven brand GANT originally got its start producing shirts for other major labels before finally creating an independent brand. With a variety of patterned shirting ranging from preppy madras to workwear chambray, GANT button-downs have seen a resurgence in recent years for their tailored yet casual feel.

Hickey Freeman

Originally created as a suit company, Hickey Freeman has undergone several transformations in the past few years and has most recently expanded to producing cutting-edge casual menswear that reflects the company's east-coast heritage.

levi

Though the brand now produces a great deal more than jeans, Levi's remains synonymous with denim. Recent expansions of the Levi's name include higher-end lines such as Levi's Made & Crafted and Levi's Vintage Clothing, both of which incorporate references to historic Levi's designs and processes.

barbour

Populated with waxed canvas, down quilted inserts, and utility details, Barbour's outerwear collections are designed to withstand even the most oppressive weather. Waterproof finishes are made even more effective with the use of drawstring waists, fitted cuffs and snap-on hoods, making Barbour jackets true investment pieces to last a lifetime.

Carhartt

Since 1889, Carhartt has produced highly functional clothing with utility details made to withstand repeated wear. Originally focused on producing outerwear for railroad workers and other labor-intensive positions, Carhartt's jackets are still widely worn today for their durability.

Pendleton

Not unlike Woolrich, Pendleton is a brand known for its woolen shirts and blankets; it is based in the Pacific Northwest. Pendleton's iconic incorporation of American Indian motifs set it apart from other brands.

Brooks Brothers

The brand has been outfitting collegiate men since the 1950s, but the label itself dates back to the early 1800s. Synonymous with suits and crisp button-down shirts, Brooks Brothers endures because of its tailored, clean aesthetic and timeless feel.

Filson

Originated during the Gold Rush, Filson is a label synonymous with outdoor gear. Hunting enthusiasts in particular rely on Filson for its durable outerwear and layering pieces, usually rendered in wool or waxed canvas. Filson also produces a well-known line of waxed canvas luggage and miscellaneous pet gear.
