Brandon Lamar Rials Is Elevating Jeans, One Personalized Pair at a Time
Subject
Fashion; Business; Chicago
Description
pair of jeans doesn’t have to be synonymous with mass production: Brandon Lamar Rials of BLRDesign elevates the humble garment to haute-couture material. From his cool live-work space in Pilsen, the driven entrepreneur produces customized pants that take one to two weeks for completion, fashioned in quality 11- to 13-ounce stretch selvage denim made in America, Italy, and even Japan.
