About the brand

Founded in 2012 by Alex Drexler, Alex Mill began with a singular mission: to create the perfect button-down shirt. Starting from a tiny shop on Elizabeth Street in New York City, the brand quickly developed a cult following for its meticulous attention to detail, high-quality fabrics, and superb craftsmanship. Drexler's quest for the ideal shirt—complete with details like "weighty buttons" and just the right cut—laid the foundation for what would become a brand philosophy centered on "not more clothes but the right clothes." In 2019, Alex Mill evolved significantly when Alex joined forces with his father Mickey Drexler (founder of Old Navy and Madewell, former CEO of The Gap and J.Crew) and renowned designer Somsack Sikhounmuong, former creative director of J.Crew and Madewell. Together, they expanded the brand from men's shirting to complete men's and women's collections, maintaining their focus on timeless wardrobe essentials. With the motto "Wake up. Get dressed. Don't overthink it," Alex Mill creates interchangeable pieces that form effortless daily uniforms, emphasizing style and quality that never goes out of fashion.

Marie Claire

These are, hands-down, the most comfortable linen pants on this list.

New York Magazine

The chunky, 100 percent cotton yarn is substantial yet breathable enough for year-round wear, and the slightly oversize fit and balloon sleeves make it perfect for layering.

Love the style & quality of this brand, I feel like it does align with the price point. In my experience it does run small!

Alex Mill is solid. A step above J Crew ... yes I think worth it at this price.

On the heavier end of the sweater spectrum, Alex Mill's sturdy fisherman's Catskills sweater feels like something the lead of a 90s romcom would wear.

As a person who owns far too many blazers—you'd be appalled—I can confirm that this one is in the 99th percentile in terms of fit, and the material (a silky, crepe-y wool) feels incredibly luxurious.

So the first thing I noticed when I slipped on the Carla was that even though I have shapely hips, thighs, and a bum, the style didn't cling to my upper legs or pull too tight. The fit was straight through the leg! Damn near a denim miracle if you ask me.

I would be remiss if I didn't mention that these jeans don't have stretch, which I honestly prefer. As you wear them, which I did near daily for the past few weeks, they got that broken in feel, without any sag that other styles can sometimes have.

The Cut

Made with Omnigod Japanese selvage denim, these were the stiffest jeans I tried, feeling especially tight at the tops of my thighs. They're a classic men's fit, which on my body means they're tight in the front of my waist but have a bit of gapping in the back.

Their pieces feel classic and unique at the same time, which is such a dream. What isn't a dream is their lack of inclusive sizing. We REALLY hope that changes soon.

I've enjoyed Alex Mill cashmere but find their sweaters run small (I'm almost 5'10”), and their pants seem to be cut for a straight figure (I'm pear shaped).

Most of the products I've received from Alex Mill have been great quality. I especially love their sweaters. On the other hand, I ordered a white tee from them and it started to discolor pretty quickly. Disappointing for the price of the shirt... expected better.
