This man is one of my idols. So excited to see other people know who he is :)
Also makes me think there is no other place than Brooklyn for the (bubbling) gentlemenswear renaissance, which is probably why I have nested here so ardently.
Who’s with me?
Martin Greenfield at his factory in Brooklyn NY
The Selby visits Martin Greenfield Clothiers, the famed hand-tailored, union-run garment factory in Bushwick where many great American labels like Brooks Brothers, Freemans Sporting Club and Band of Outsiders go to get their suits finely tailored.
If you haven’t already, I highly recommend checking out this short film by Ed David titled ‘Martin the Tailor’. It offers great insight into a slowly dying craft.
