This is a list of my favorite brands and individual pieces. Think of it as the “greatest hits” of my closet from the past few years.
Everything on this list in TMM-approved, which means it offers a lot of value for the price. It’s not necessarily cheap, but it’s still a good deal.
It’s a great place to start when you’re looking for new clothes and have no idea where to shop or what to buy.
Many of the items on this list are better for shorter, slimmer guys, but most of it will work for a variety of builds. As always, you should expect to take some of your new clothing to the tailor to achieve that perfect fit.
You can sort by category (e.g. “shirts”), brand (e.g. “J. Crew”) or alphabetically by product name. Enjoy!
