From Barbour to Balenciaga: What Each Brand Signals About You
Author: Stylist at TellarDate: 2025
Every brand you wear tells a story—about your style, your values, and sometimes even your lifestyle. Some labels whisper, others shout. Whether you lean heritage, hype or high fashion, here’s what your favourite menswear brand says about you—and how to find the right fit using Tellar.co.uk.
Barbour
You are: Outdoorsy, understated, and loyal to quality. You value tradition and timelessness. You probably own a dog.
Percival
You are: East London-adjacent in spirit. You appreciate British quirk, overshirts, and co-ords with charm.
Reiss
You are: Career-driven, polished, and confident. You value style that’s sleek but safe.
Sunspel
You are: Quality-over-everything minimalist. You want the best white tee and know what Sea Island cotton is.
Stone Island
You are: Techy, tactical and detail-obsessed. You love fabrics that sound engineered and sleeves with patches.
Nike
You are: Energetic, comfort-driven, and live in half zips and Air Max. The gym is a lifestyle.
Adidas
You are: A loyalist. Whether you’re track-top nostalgic or Y-3 experimental, Adidas is your anchor.
Arc’teryx
You are: Into technical fashion, probably wear GORE-TEX to the café, and love looking functional even when it’s dry.
Acne Studios
You are: Quietly fashionable. You believe less is more, and your jeans are expensive—but subtle.
AMI Paris
You are: Relaxed, French-inspired, and low-effort cool. You like carrot trousers and cropped jackets.
Balenciaga
You are: Loud. You like irony, logomania, and exaggerated shapes. You dress to disrupt and know what “archival” means.
Jacquemus
You are: Beach-dreaming and asymmetrical. You favour cropped shirts and playful minimalism.
Thom Browne
You are: Structured, styled, and love a uniform. You wear cropped trousers year-round and probably own grey tailoring.
Rick Owens
You are: Dark, drapey, and design-led. You wear drop-crotch with purpose and shop in layers of black.
Fear of God
You are: Luxe casualist. You wear sweats like tailoring, and every tee has a weight to it.
Dsquared2
You are: Glam rocker meets gym guy. You love skinny jeans, Canadian iconography, and bold layering.
Moncler
You are: Puffer elite. You love a hooded high-gloss finish and treat outerwear like armour.
