My guest this week is designer Dana Lee of Dana Lee Brown
If the name rings a bell, this isnât her first time making clothes; she used to run her brand as Dana Lee in the late aughts. I remember getting her twill pants, which I still own, and they were simple, well made, and classic. She recently re-launched her brand not long ago after taking some time off, and itâs incredible.
Itâs a small collection, but as youâll hear, itâs not made or manufactured the way her previous one was. In fact, sheâs one of the few brands I know that are leading the way in this âfarm to loomâ production. In fact, all of her stuff is made in a relatively local radius. It makes you think more.
We chatted about her brand, why she manufactures this way, and her work with local makers to create the best menswear.

My guest this week is Mike McLachlan of Manresa.
Before we dive in, I have to say Mike gets into it, and I think his openness, vulnerability, and candor are among the things that truly set him apart.Iâm not going to get philosophical here, but Mike constantly admits that he doesnât know what he doesnât know; heâs just trying to make the best brand he can. Which, as youâll hear, is working.
Mike and I discuss the origins of Manresa, big brother style, sobriety, the recent GQ article declaring GORP is dead, making clothes for things you actually do, and whatâs next for the brand.Manresa Clothing

Shopping All the Way to the Woods: How the Outdoor Industry Sold Nature to America isn't necessarily about men's style, but it explores an important theme that can be easily transposed to any discussion about menswear. It's a book about how people buy outdoor gear to create an idea of a more "authentic self" and connect with nature. Derek chats with the author and professor, Rachel Gross, about her research and how commercial culture is tied to creating identity.**
