Publish Brand Offers a Novel Approach to Casual Clothing

For several years now California-based clothing brand Publish has done an admirably impressive job of releasing affordable bestsellers that merge the coolness of streetwear with the clean look of contemporary men’s fashion. A pioneer in introducing the now ubiquitous jogger pant on American shores, Publish continues to expand its offerings and churn out apparel and accessories that call for more than just a cursory glance.

Brand director Alex James recently shared the story behind the label–and offered a glimpse on its future releases….

How would you describe the overall design aesthetic?

Comfortable, Progressive, Smart, and Universal.

What special fabrics or details do you employ?

A lot of our clothing has a DWR coating that aids in spillage and stains. Most of the fabrics we use are natural and fully breathable.

Where is the brand manufactured?

We make product in the USA, China, and Vietnam.

What are the future plans for the brand?

Continue to grow organically and introduce more product besides clothing. We want to break into home goods, eyewear, and progressive sports accessories.
