We were so excited to be able to spend the evening with the Ball and Buck crew. Ball and Buck has been on our radar for awhile now. They have a great brand and a solid mission, not to mention an incredible store. Their Newbury St. store combines their clothing line with the perfect environment to allow for an incredibly well rounded shopping experience. And it doesn’t hurt when you are styling a photo shoot with them! They even have their own barbershop in house and Dwayne as the expert, resident barber. We wanted to do a style profile with them so we could give you a taste of their brand. If you haven’t been in the store, get over there!
We had a sit down with each of the guys and chatted with them about their own style and Ball and Buck brand:
MARK:
How do you describe your style?
Rugged Classic
It takes me minutes to get dressed in the morning. My goal is to have great, classic pieces that can be worn separately or together.
What piece of your wardrobe could you not live without?
A button down shirt.
Dress it up, dress it down. You can wear it anywhere and it looks great.
How does Ball and Buck fit in with or compliment your style?
It is my style. This is my closet away from home. My look is very influenced by hunting which drives the choices that I make in my clothing. There is a necessity for high quality in hunting gear that Ball and Buck translates into apparel. The idea of no need to replace items. Once you buy it it lasts.
Also the fact that the entire Ball and Buck line is Made in America. It is expensive to have things made in America. If you are going to spend the money on the labor than you are definitely going to spend it on the materials. You use the best because you can’t afford not to.
