Why Jason Feifer Loves Mizzen+Main

Jason Feifer has spent more than a decade immersed in the world of entrepreneurship. As someone who has worked with founders, CEOs, and operators across industries, he’s seen firsthand what actually separates people who succeed from those who stall.

In his words, “The thing that divides successful people from unsuccessful people is not whether you're good at something at the start, but rather whether you're willing to tolerate being bad long enough to get to good.”

That mindset—showing up consistently, taking the work seriously, and respecting the opportunity—extends beyond how Jason thinks about business. It also shapes how he thinks about how he shows up.

By nature, Jason describes himself as “a jeans and T-shirt guy.” For a long time, that’s exactly how he dressed for everything, even when he was being hired to speak on stage or consult with teams that had invested heavily in bringing him in. Over time, that perspective shifted.

“I eventually came to think these people are taking me really seriously,” he explains. “I need to show up, signaling to them that I take them very seriously.”

That realization didn’t mean abandoning who he is. It meant finding clothing that allowed him to show respect for the moment without feeling forced or uncomfortable. What Jason looks for now is “a brand that makes it easy and natural, so that I can still just be myself.”

That’s where Mizzen+Main comes in.

His favorite piece from the collection reflects exactly how he moves through his day. “My favorite piece from the Mizzen+Main collection is the Fresco Suit,” he says. “It looks good on stage, feels good throughout a meeting, and is easy to wear straight to dinner.”

For Jason, versatility matters. Comfort matters. And longevity matters too. These are pieces designed to be worn often and relied on. As he puts it, “I’m going to be wearing this suit for a long, long time.”

At its core, Jason’s relationship with Mizzen+Main isn’t about fashion. It’s about alignment. Showing up prepared. Respecting the room. And removing distractions so the focus stays where it belongs—on the work.
