Benjamin Edgar CLOTHINGS

Chicago native Benjamin Edgar Gott first made a name for himself launching several esteemed entrepreneurial initiatives, like the sustainable water brand Boxed Water and miscellaneous design blog “The Brilliance,” started with fellow notables Chuck Anderson and Virgil Abloh. Founded in 2009, Edgar Gott’s semi-eponymous design company, Benjamin Edgar, self-identifies as an “object company,” creating original design pieces across a variety of mediums. Encompassing everything from notebooks to furniture to luxe clothes hangers crafted from Vermont Verde marble, the brand’s approach exhibits a characteristic irreverence that never distracts from their intense focus on detail and craft. Sartorially, simple tees and hoodies featuring prints of playful slogans are presented in restrained monochrome colorways, while iconographic keychains and accessories reflect the sharp wit the brand is known for. With a one-of-a-kind perspective and an outsider’s approach, Benjamin Edgar unites divergent qualities from across forms to produce distinctive clothing that brims with puckish personality.
