Brands I truly enjoy (but dont own anything)

1 SLP by Hedi Slimane - no one does rock like Hedi Slimane. He is the one brought me into clothing.
2 Junya Watanabe - he makes Americana, workwear look cool and that is pretty much 80% what I wear
3 Undercover by Jun Takahashi - same as Slimane, discovered later.
4 Robert Geller - dont really understand his style but kinda like it.
5 Christophe Lemaire - there is something super elegant about this guy. I probably will never own anything but still enjoy watching.
6 Stephan Schneider - same as above
7 Dries Van Noten - same as above
8 Engineered Garments - specifically worn by ManofKent

Brands I actually use

1 Patrik Ervell - daily wear
2 Common Projects - sneakers
3 Uniqlo - basics
4 Paul Smith - shoes, few years ago. Still have some old models
5 Jil - tailoring
6 SNS - knit
7 Momotaro/ Japan Blue - raw denim
8 Wolverine
9 Viberg
10 Filson - luggages
...

Gieves and Hawkes for bespoke jeans

Richard Anderson for bespoke shirts and nightwear

J Mendel for my lovely shearling black jacket and coats

Gaziano and Girling for MTO and bespoke shoes and boots

John Lobb of St James for bespoke boots

Leather biker on wishlist either from Hunstman or Gieves and Hawkes

Knitwear - what I've got is Hawick cashmere but what I want to try next year are Simone Abbarchi cashmere sweaters and maybe shirts as well.

Underwear either pure silk La Perla or any pure Pima cotton

Brands I wear & use alot:

Old Town
Our Legacy
Filson (bags)

that's it.

I like:
Margaret Howell

some Y Yamamoto, and wouldn't mind Guidi for shoes (although will never get due to the size)

I should try to put something from the second list on the first.

Since I buy very little these days, this is more of a "What's interesting to you these days" list. I've been pretty focused on comfort

Eidos
Ts(s)
Blue Blue Japan

Kapital
Evan Kinori
Dries

- I'm kind of into a wandering artist/global nomad/crashed-but-elegant aviator idea, I guess. Dries never fits me, so I'm mostly wearing the first 5 on that list
RRL
- Digging Western stuff in general.
Cloak (always)
- Although most of the pieces I have are cold-weather garments, it's nice to have favorites to return to all winter.
Stoffa
- Own none of it, but have had the chance to see a few people wearing it, and would love to make it to a trunk show at some point. I think it fits in with the

Honorable mention:

Camoshita
- Another one that doesn't fit me, but a brand (and person) I often look at for inspiration.
