A recognized leader in the menswear space, Gentry brings together a tightly curated mix of established and emerging brands from around the world with a shared commitment to exceptional quality and aesthetic precision. Gentry began life as H.W. Carter & Sons, a multi-brand store and suiting line that carried like-minded designers with a similar heritage aesthetic. After selling the label in 2013, Gentry was launched to continue the mission of connecting customers with the most relevant brands on the market today. The name is a reference to the cultivated gentlemen of yore—guys whose eclectic taste and savoir faire set them apart from the rabble.

As the name suggests, Big Blue Japan has a thing for indigo dye, a traditional Japanese dyeing color and technique. Since their inception in 1996, however, they’ve expanded to an ever-so-slightly larger color palette. With firm roots in traditional tailoring and silhouettes, Big Blue Japan creates classic pieces with interesting patterns and compelling details. The clothing is meant to be visually exciting but still completely wearable, resulting in small effects like monochrome embroidery and little safety pins with ribbons attached. Even the details have details.
