Italian-style from a Dutchman!

Profuomo as a brand was started in 1985, its parent company has been around for a much longer period than that. In fact, it has been the largest tie manufacturer in Europe for the last 8 decades! So you think the Profuomo headquarters are located in Milan, Paris or London? Nope, right here in the Netherlands in the Rotterdam area. They have recently opened two flagship stores on the P.C. Hooftstraat in Amsterdam and on the Meent in Rotterdam.

I really enjoy wearing their shirts and shoes. A few weeks back I also bought their swimming shorts and I can’t wait for their jackets to come out this winter season. Their style is truly amazing! The slim-fit shirts really are slim-fit and they have the whale bones pockets open so you can insert your favorite pair of whalebones and stiffen the collar.

Check out their ‘White Wall’! Choose your perfect white shirt! Is your preference a white shirt with a cut-away collar and French cuffs? They got it..

They have become raging popular here in the Netherlands with their watches too, or as some would refer to as ‘clocks’ because they are rather big. I wear an U-boat from a series of 1000, which is quite a big watch too. But some of their watches really push the limit! Some are very cool though.

They are currently in the process of setting up franchise stores in Vienna and Berlin. Where to next?
