The company also attracted investment from Justin Timberlake, Larry Fitzgerald, Dylan Larkin, Eric Church, and PGA tour player Justin Thomas.

Inside the Detroit flagship of Greyson Clothiers

Founded in 2015 by former Ralph Lauren designer Charlie Schaefer, Greyson focuses on sophisticated luxury design with technical functionality.

Schaefer grew up in Birmingham, Michigan.

According to press materials, the new capital will fuel Greyson's expansion plans, including international growth, new brick-and-mortar locations, and more direct-to-consumer operations. The brand recently launched a womenswear line.

The company has stores in Atlanta, Denver, Detroit, Harbor Springs, Grand Rapids, New Orleans, New York City, West Palm Beach, and Seoul, Korea.

You can find their Detroit store at 1500 Woodward. Look for the monotone wolf statue out front on the sidewalk. And yes, I've done a double take before seeing it out of the corner of my eye.
