Robert Stock—yes, the Robert of Robert Graham—didn’t just start, he launched, like a shot of neon silk from a sartorial cannon, straight out of Paul Resslers boutique in New York. Picture it: the scent of fine leather, the whisper of cashmere, the hum of a city that never blinks. And then—enter stage left—a tie salesman with a name destined for haberdashery immortality: Ralph Lauren. The two cooked up Chaps, a rough-and-tumble American dream stitched in equestrian preppy bravado. But decades later, another fateful handshake—this time with Graham Fowler, a French textile wizard who saw fabric the way Cézanne saw color—set Stock on his true course. The result? A brand that doesn’t just make shirts; it composes them. Every stitch, every button, every riotous clash of paisley and plaid, a symphony of audacious detail. A man with taste—no, a man with presence—doesn’t own just one. He owns three. At minimum.
