Buck Mason
About
Buck Mason makes what it calls modern American classics: T-shirts, jeans, sweaters, outerwear and the other plain, durable pieces that fill an everyday wardrobe. The brand was founded in 2013 in Venice, California, by Sasha Koehn and Erik Allen Ford, who started in a 350-square-foot garage with locally made jeans and tees. Its Newbury Street store carries the men’s and women’s collections, and the brand sells only through its own website and stores, so this is one of the few places in Boston to try the fits on.
It suits a traveler who packed too light, a shopper replacing the basics they wear most, or anyone who would rather buy one well-made T-shirt than three. The store is at 229 Newbury Street in Back Bay, and the closest T station is Copley on the Green Line, at Boylston and Dartmouth Streets.
Where the T-shirts come from
Part of the brand’s story is a factory rescue. When a shirt mill in Mohnton, Pennsylvania, closed after about a century, the founders bought it and brought its team back to work, renaming it Buck Mason Knitting Mills; the mill’s knitting machines let the company develop its own fabrics. The brand says its other clothes come from partner factories in the United States and overseas.
Why buy denim in the store
Jeans and trousers bought in a Buck Mason store at full price are hemmed free, which matters because the denim comes in four fits, Maverick Slim, Ford Standard, Cowboy and Full-Saddle, and the easiest way to choose is to try them. Hemming covers length only, not tapering, and turnaround varies, so ask about pickup timing if you are leaving town soon. The store also handles in-store pickup of online orders and free returns.
Two stores in Boston
Buck Mason has a second Boston store in the Prudential Center, at 800 Boylston Street, which is under cover on a rainy day. Returns are accepted at any Buck Mason store, so a purchase from one can go back to the other.
