Rule No. 2

Mix Rugged With Refined

Great pieces know no boundaries.

Some call it “high-low.” Ralph prefers “rugged meets refined,” and has been doing it since the very beginning. It’s the simple art of taking pieces that might rank differently on the formality scale—say, tailored tweeds and a cotton canvas outdoor jacket—and mixing them to discover what they share in common. Namely, durable constructions, hard-wearing fabrics, and the assurance that both will look better over time, particularly when worn together.
