Blamo‪!‬ Blamo! Media, Jeremy Kirkland

Derek and Peter talk to her about what it's like to run a bespoke tailoring business in the US and how someone can enter this trade.

My guest this week is Tom Kay, founder of the outdoor brand Finisterre

A brand born in 2003 from the needs of hardy British surfers, Finisterre designs functional and sustainable products for those who share a love of the sea.

In this week's pod, Tom and I discuss what drives design, wetsuits, surfing, and how to make an outdoor brand. We also chat about repairs, collabs, and how to unwind.

My guest this week is bootmaker Graham Ebner.

Graham has become one of the most talked about artisans of the past few years—a team of one, making bespoke boots by hand in his small workshop in Austin, Texas.

Graham talks about bespoke bootmaking, working at the legendary Texas Traditions under Lee Miller, why he takes things slow, dealing with waiting lists, gatekeeping, and classic cowboy style.

Shoemaker Nicholas Templeman has been working with Derek for nearly ten years and is one of the best artisans he has ever used. So it was about time that Derek and Peter invited him to an episode for a chat.

Nicholas shares his career as a bespoke shoemaker, his process, and more. Dig in!

The return of author W. David Marx!David and I get back into it! Our first pod was a year and a half ago, and you’re welcome to dig into it.

Recorded in Tokyo, David and I discuss his upcoming book, indie music, craftsmanship, getting dressed, artists vs creators, and Tailor Caid. The ramble begins now!

My guest this week is Adam Brown, founder of Orlebar Brown

Adam and I discuss how the brand was created organically, evolving past swimwear, holiday travel, retail, the perfect day, and what’s next for the brand.
