Classic Style. Modern Performance.
Ten years ago, we created the first performance fabric dress shirt. Today, we make classic, high-performing, long lasting styles that always look great and quickly become go-to garments that men can wear their way, every day.
It started with an idea...
At the sight of a sweat-drenched D.C. staffer running into a meeting, the same thought that sparked a democracy also rattled around in our founder’s head: there has to be a better way.
Close-up shots show people walking and running on a sidewalk in business attire. In an office, a man sits at his desk looking uncomfortable; he tugs at his stiff collar and the fabric of his dress shirt while working. Later, standing inside a dry cleaner, he watches a television news segment featuring a professional golfer. He looks struck by an idea and runs out of the shop, discarding a plastic-wrapped shirt. In a home workshop, the man sketches on a laptop, cuts white performance fabric, and uses a sewing machine. He smiles as he inspects a completed white button-down shirt. Dress shirts in various patterns float against a blue sky with clouds. The man walks confidently down a city street wearing a flexible, navy blue dress shirt. The video concludes with the text: Mizzen+Main, Creator of the performance fabric dress shirt. Background music plays throughout; no dialogue.
The difference is in the details
Our custom blend of performance fabrics combined with classic and modern silhouettes results in clothing that feels just as good as it looks. Be careful when you try something on. You may never want to take it off.
Don't take our word for it.
