Looking for the next best shirt? Kowboy is a brand that was created by three brothers: Mitchell Rose, Ethan Rose and Mark Kates. They wanted to create a new brand that brings fresh perspective to the fashion industry. The Rose brothers focused on being basic yet delivered through specific principals such as clean lines, sophisticated designs and high quality fabrics. Their solution? Trend-setting yet comfortable pieces that use high quality, hand-knit cotton, combined with the latest washes and sophisticated designs for a more unique look. Sounds like a good solution to me! To sum up Kowboys in three words: Comfortable, Sophisticated, and Unique.
Kowboys is based in Los Angeles, which makes their brand perfect for hot weather. They offer an array of bright colors with many fun patterns to choose from, but their main function is comfort. Urbanminx says that the line eventually sky rocketed into fame when stylist Lisa Kline had Ben Affleck and Matt Damon wear these Kowboy shirts and featured it in US Weekly. They are now a favorite of many celebrities like Mathew Fox and Dominic Purcell, this line did not take long to take off which doesn’t surprise me at all.
Kowboys shirts have also been featured in GQ, In Style, and Maxim. Their shirts are innovative, effectively blending western with an urban style. Finally someone thinks of comfort first, it’s a bonus that the shirts are hot! I have seen a couple that have caught my eye and looking into getting some for myself. I have so many plain white tank tops in my closet but there is no spunk or pizazz to them. They just sit there and never get taken out to be worn because they are so boring. Kowboy shirts could be my answer!
