J. Crew has filed for bankruptcy. While that doesn't mean the store is going away for good, it inspired us to have a full discussion on the Brand! We trace its history from it's early catalogue/RL wanna-be days to its status as the mainstream's voice for #menswear, Americana, and heritage. Even though we don't always buy from it (especially as our tastes have changed), it still holds a place in our hearts. Perhaps this is a sign for how mainstream menswear/mall brands will fare in the future..

Be on the look out for our Patreon, launching in June!
