Mjölk is a luxury menswear line helmed by designer Lars Stoten and based in NYC. And though some of its goods are made far and wide (think Swiss leather specialists and Italian cobblers), the brand has strong ties to its home base of New York, producing clothing and belts in the city’s legendary garment district. No matter where it’s crafted, though, the basic principles of smart detailing and clever utility are a common thread in each piece. Oh, and a note on that name: It’s the Swedish word for "milk," which may shed a little light on the brand’s sensibility—substantial, familiar, and ultimately quite refreshing.
