Company Description

ZacharyPrell is a clothing company engaged in athletic fit, smart detailing and luxurious Italian fabrications.

When Zachary Prell started his contemporary sportswear brand while earning his MBA in 2005, he had a closet overflowing with poorly-fitting men's shirts. Zachary, a former Wall Street investment banker and private equity professional, had been wearing button-downs every day for nearly a decade. For just as long, he had been searching for a shirt that embodied style, quality and the versatility to be worn at work and after-hours. Zachary recognized an opportunity to re-define the category with an emphasis on better fit and smart detailing. Armed only with a vision of something better and determined to make it happen, he set out to develop the ideal men's sport shirt from scratch. ZACHARY PRELL debuted in Fall 2006 with an internet-only sales strategy and a grass-roots marketing effort. The initial collections quickly sold out due to the brands' unique athletic fit, smart detailing and luxurious Italian fabrications. Wholesale sales followed in Spring 2009 and the company has steadily grown its collection each season. Besides offering a well-edited assortment of sport shirts, the brand now includes outerwear, sport coats, leather jackets as well as swimwear. Today, ZACHARY PRELL is available in over 200 stores throughout the US, including Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and Saks Fifth Avenue as well as leading specialty retailers such as Boyds in Philadelphia, Andrisen Morton in Denver and GARYS in Newport Beach. The company is headquartered in New York City and online at www.zacharyprell.com.
