Alex Mill
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.
