Philosophy
Mark McNairy is a menswear and footwear brand, combining the designer's vast knowledge of American and English tailoring tradition with an eye fixed on the future.
Designer McNairy burst onto the menswear scene in 2008 with a groundbreaking footwear collection featuring classic men's shoes handcrafted in an historic factory in Northamptonshire, UK, spiked with a decidedly modern edge.
Initially starting as a footwear-based line, the following year the brand developed into Mark McNairy New Amsterdam, a full men's sportswear collection consisting of a mix of vintage military-inspired clothing manufactured in small factories in the USA, offering a fresh take on traditional menswear: nylon coach’s jackets paired with silk ties, and oxford cloth shirts worn with cargo shorts, chino shorts and blazers patterned with daisies, "I Heart NY" prints, and smiley faces.
Mark McNairy has been one of the most talked about designers in contemporary menswear, supported by the strength of a cult following of dedicated, fashion-forward young men around the globe,
He has been contracted by fashion companies likes J Press, Engineered Garments & Woolrich Woolen Mills and has collaborated with brands as diverse as Adidas, Crescent Down Works, and New Era.
Mark McNairy New Amsterdam has garnered adoration and acclaim from influential tastemakers and press in the world's most prestigious fashion publications. GQ magazine named Mark McNairy one of the Best New Menswear Designers in America, and Complex designated McNairy the Man of the Year in Style in 2012.
