Taking over the lease of his previous employer in 2018, and rebranding to build the boutique we know now, Antony Derdak set up Merchant Menswear to showcase a thoughtfully curated collection of brands with a key focus on quality fabrics and fits. “I always look for brands that offer something different to the high street,” says Antony, “and I am a firm believer in quality over quantity so look for products that will give flexibility in terms of outfit building.”
From Japanese selvedge denim via Edwin, to linen shirting from cult-favourites Portuguese Flannel and relaxed suiting Universal Works, Merchant menswear has all bases covered for your wardrobe re-up. Join us as we chat to Antony about his tips for shopping menswear well, and his top picks for the summer season ahead.
