“The Normal Brand is a fashion company creating casual wear that is versatile and durable, with a rugged aesthetic and elevated style.”

Like all good startup stories, there’s usually a garage or a parent’s basement that plays a leading role in the formation of the company. The Normal Brand is a casual wear lifestyle brand started by a group of brothers from the Midwest —in, you guessed it, their parents’ basement. Now they have three stores in the St. Louis area and are growing nationwide.

The inspiration was born out of a need for ‘a normal shirt’ that was both casual, stylish, and could hold up to the occasional hunting trip. With styles ranging from sweaters to lightweight plaids, they offer the perfect laid back style for both men and women.

What we love: For everyday fits that are both casual and stylish, anything Puremeso (their signature fabric). It’s insanely soft, durable, and comes in multiple cuts – henleys, hoodies, you name it. For a more fitted look, it’s hard to go wrong with one of their button downs, which come in tons of novelty patterns.
