What to know about Wythe

Fabric research is the origin story

Founder Peter Middleton researched fabrics at Ralph Lauren before starting Wythe, and builds the line from custom-developed cloth and Japanese mill goods.

Western and workwear, reworked

The core archetypes are pearl-snap shirts, ranch jackets and chore coats, plus knitwear and heavyweight sweatshirts drawn from American workwear and prep.

Kickstarter start, still independent

Launched in 2019 with a Kickstarter for oxford shirts, it remains independently owned, with one Lower East Side store and wholesale at STAG, Franklin & Poe and Huckberry.
