“I like to put my own twist on things.”

-Jason Waters, Professional Clothier with Astor & Black.

Meet Jason:

Tell us a little bit about your background. Where do you come from?

Born in Los Angeles, now I reside in San Diego. Home of Ron Burgundy. I grew up in a skateboarding/surfing community and it eventually evolved into working ,for the action sport industry for a short time. As a kid I always admired the style of guys like McQueen and Brando. They reminded me of my granddad–he could wear anything and make it look stylish. Years later I found myself working for Donna Karan, Ralph Lauren and Brooks Brothers; I got the bug.

Get the Look: Bold Blazer

This summer, go bold.

This bold blazer from our Platinum level collections makes a strong fashion statement while maintaining the quality of cloth and impeccable fit you expect from Astor & Black. This lightweight fabric has the appearance of a crisp summer seersucker, but it is actually soft, lightweight wool.
