Tailor Vintage

Tailor Vintage is a Connecticut-based menswear label specializing in coastal New England aesthetics. The brand represents a synthesis of traditional Ivy League prep and functional casual wear. Its collections prioritize versatile basics, utilizing reversible fabrics and classic silhouettes to support a lifestyle centered on maritime and collegiate influences.

History

Founded in 1993 by Rick Finkelstein, Tailor Vintage emerged during a period of renewed interest in American heritage sportswear. Based in Ridgefield, Connecticut, the brand established a niche by integrating technical versatility into traditional garments, specifically through its signature reversible shorts. It represents the persistent influence of Northeastern collegiate style on contemporary casual fashion and the practical application of dual-faced textile construction in menswear.
