Today I got to chat about Marine Layer with their new Director of Marketing, Art of Dapper Style Icon, and Branding Expert, Nish Nadaraja.
What's your favorite Marine Layer outfit? I'm a cardigan man, so our sweaters have been great for layering and variety. I've called our brand an "après surf" clothier, and I'm also pushing the idea of a 7-Day Weekend as emblematic of our casual, laid-back vibe.
Tell me about how you came to work at Marine Layer? I met Mike Natenshon years ago, so was familiar with Marine Layer even before they had a storefront. I probably am best know in the Bay Area for my brand and marketing work at Yelp, so while I still have affection for the consumer internet space, I wanted to dive into something more tangible. I've always loved the retail space, see big things for Marine Layer, and wanted to help them get there.
Here are a few of Nish's favorite pieces: Shawlneck Pullover ($88); Variegated Stripe Crewneck ($42 or 3 for $90); Chambray Oxford ($72); Grandpa Cardigan ($42). Nish is wearing Shawlneck Pullover and Pique Polo ($65, I recommend Periwinkle) with Nudie Jeans.
