What to know about Rogue Territory
Rogue Territory (RGT) is a Los Angeles heritage menswear label founded in 2008 by Karl Thoennessen and Leslie Yeung as a bespoke denim workshop inside American Rag's denim bar, pivoting to ready-to-wear in 2009. The brand cuts and sews in Los Angeles using Japanese selvedge denim custom-woven to its own specifications, with signature details including a hidden pen pocket, lasso back-pocket stitching and hand-branded leather patches. Products span Stanton and Strider jean fits, waxed-canvas jackets, work shirts and fatigue trousers. Jeans run roughly $225-$375, outerwear about $425.
