What to know about Publish Brand
Publish is a Southern California menswear label that sells directly through publishbrand.com. Its own positioning describes it as a lifestyle brand making modern clothing and accessories built around utility, fashion and style. The range centers on trousers — tapered joggers, sprinter and work pants that helped define the early-2010s jogger trend — alongside outerwear, knitwear, tees and caps in muted, earth-toned palettes. Collections favor technical and cotton blends, cargo pocketing and adjustable hems over graphic-heavy branding.
How Publish Brand fits
Overall fit
slightly small
Publish is most often described as fitting close to the body — waistbands and tapered legs read a touch snug on larger builds — so many buyers who want comfort or layering room go up a size while slimmer wearers stay true to size.
Tip: Most shoppers do fine at their usual size, but size up one if you have athletic thighs or want a roomier, layerable fit.

| Category | Runs | Shape | Size advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hoodies & sweatshirts | true to size | regular streetwear fit with moderate room through the chest | Stick with your usual size, or go up one for an oversized layering look. |
| Jackets | slightly small | trim, layered-over-a-tee cut rather than roomy outerwear | Size up if you plan to wear a hoodie or heavy knit underneath. |
| Shirts & overshirts | true to size | regular to slightly slim through the body | Order your normal shirt size unless you want extra room through the chest. |
| T-shirts & graphic tees | true to size | regular to slightly slim, not boxy | Take your normal size; size up only if you prefer a loose, drapey tee. |
| Trousers & pants | slightly small | slim to tapered jogger and work-pant silhouettes with a defined taper below the knee | Consider going up one waist size if you have muscular thighs or prefer a relaxed drape; otherwise take your measured waist. |
