There are a lot of designers out there that are making well-made, beautiful products that you’ll want to keep in your closet for years to come. One of the most popular among both men and women is Rag & Bone, which is well-known for their commitment to timeless British style with an American edge. Whether you’re looking for a pair of their famous jeans, tees, tanks, sweatshirts, sweaters, blazers, footwear, and more, you can expect the same quality materials and meticulous attention to detail in every item.

But what’s the story behind Rag & Bone, and who owns it? Glad you asked, because in today’s article we’re going to delve deeper into:

  • What is Rag & Bone?
  • Where to buy Rag & Bone
  • The Rag & Bone apparel your closet needs right now

What is Rag and Bone?

Who designs and owns Rag and Bone?

Rag and Bone on Instagram, menswear

Rag & Bone has been producing amazing, fashionable items for over 20 years. In 2002, Marcus Wainwright and Nathan Bogle launched the brand in New York City, and a menswear line followed in 2004, with womenswear not far behind in 2005. In 2006 David Neville replaced Nathan Bogle, and widened the company’s scope to include footwear, accessories, and their much-loved denim collection.

In July of 2023, Marcus Wainwright stepped down as chief brand officer, but will stay on as a board member and shareholder. The Chief Merchandising and Design Officer Jennie McCormick now oversees the Rag & Bone womenswear, footwear, and accessory designs, while Kyle Sweeney is now handling the menswear division. The firm is currently privately held, and will continue on with a very talented management team. This will be the first time that neither of the founders have a say in the day to day operation, but they are confident the team that is left will be able to carry on and continue to produce must-have Rag & Bone items.

What started out as a mission to create a great pair of men’s jeans has transformed into one of the most popular brands out there among celebs and regular people alike.

This is a great way to try out their designs without having to pay full price!

Rag and Bone jeans

These chic jeans look gorgeous with flats or heels.

Rag & Bone was built on the desire to create a great pair of jeans, which is why you can’t go wrong picking up any style. However, if you’re looking for something that can easily be dressed up or down, then you should pick up the Wren Slim Jean. Made with mid-weight stretch denim, you’ll love the stylish faded look as well as the ankle length. Complete with button closure and zip fly, these will be your new go-to jeans for brunch dates and evenings out.

Pair with a cute sweater and flats for daytime events, or add heels, a white tee, and a blazer for a look that’s perfect for evenings out.

Flare jeans that elevate your style are what you’ve been waiting for.

Your wardrobe definitely needs a pair of trending flare jeans if you don’t already have one! These Casey flare legged jeans are the perfect shade of indigo that’s sure to go with anything you already have. Made with stretch denim for an amazing fit, you’ll wonder why you didn’t purchase these jeans sooner. Featuring a sleek look that’s ultra-slimming, you’ll love the clean hem, five pockets, and easy to open/close zipper and washer rivet.

Pair these jeans with your favorite heels or boots, a body suit, and a blazer for a great office look that transitions easily to nighttime. Or keep it casual with chunky sneakers and a sweatshirt for days you need to run errands!

Rag and Bone sweaters

This cozy sweater was made for cooler temps!

When the temps cool and the seasons change to fall, it’s time to take out your favorite sweaters! If you don’t have a favorite one, it’s time to check out what Rag & Bone has to offer. This Holly Crew sweater is a great option, and features colors that are perfect for fall or winter. Made out of mid-weight fuzzy knit, you’ll love how soft this sweater feels against your skin. The crew neckline is timeless, and the long sleeves with dropped shoulders mean this isn’t too loose or too tight, but will hug you just right. You can easily wear this sweater on its own, but it’s also the perfect weight to wear a collared shirt underneath to dress it up for the office.

Need a little extra warmth on a cold day? Consider wearing a turtleneck or a mock turtleneck to add a little additional layer to keep you warm. This sweater would look great with jeans and sneakers for something casual, or with khakis and loafers for a more professional look.

Turtleneck sweater and cardigan Rag and Bone

Cardigans never seem to go out of style.

If there’s one item you should splurge on for yourself, it’s a cashmere sweater. The Durham cashmere sweater is something that is going to elevate your look for years to come, and will last season after season when cared for properly. You’ll not only love the luxe feel of cashmere, but also the recycled buttons, and the herringbone stitch—not to mention the classic silhouette of the cardigan never goes out of style.

Wear this warm sweater loosely over a tee and jeans for a super relaxed, casual look. Or you can make it more professional by buttoning it up and layering it with a turtleneck or a crisp white collared shirt.

Rag and Bone sneakers

Made with cowhide and featuring a lightly cushioned collar and tongue, you may never want to wear anything else. The lace up closure is easy to tie, and the rounded toe and rubber sole ensure you can wear these with everything from jeans, to shorts, to skirts for a casual vibe that’s as comfortable as it is fashionable.

With these trainers, you’ll look fantastic, and be helping the environment, which is a win-win!

What can I say about Rustenburg.. Rustenburg has What can I say about Rustenburg..

Rustenburg has massive mountains. They are beautiful, but difficult to climb.

The chess was challenging and Nicky got 4.5 out of 9 rounds, ending in 42nd position.

My hire car struggled up the hill and the clutch started smoking. After that I came early to make sure I got a parking spot at the bottom.

The electricity was intermittent. Out Guest house had a generator which they turned off at night so Nicky had to make do with a small portable fan.

Despite all this, we are grateful for precious moments which made this trip worthwhile.

Friends that we made and spent time with

Meeting your opponent that you just played at Nando's.

Jumping on trampolines and having fun at Sun City. I lay on the beach while Nicky and Deacon did the slides.

At the airport Nicky had fun walking both ways on the treadmill and Chelsea joined him too.

All in all I'm also super grateful that we made memories and to be home safe.

Would you like to create content but you lack foll Would you like to create content but you lack followers?

There is another option.

User generated content is where you produce content for brands, and it really doesn't matter how many followers you have. 

Lakeisha Mugo from Kenya has put together a UGC guide that will give you the plan that you need.

What I liked about this guide:
📱No fluff, real steps.
📱Great ideas for engagement and what really makes a thoughtful comment.
📱Loads of templates for everything including letters to brands and even for feedback on your work. 
📱Africa specific and relevant.
📱How to make sure that you charge according to the different levels of UGC

It's all up on the blog! So go ahead and read it.

It's that season where we are going around looking It's that season where we are going around looking at high schools.

I know. Time flies. How did we get here?

I loved the quotes on the walls and the art work of the students. If I had to do school again, I think I'd do more art and cooking.

What would you do?

Anyway, let's hope Nicky gets accepted somewhere for next year. These applications are a lot of work. But I've done 3 of them now. 

Nicky really likes this school. And of course he went straight for the chess.

Life in cartoon form. Ask Chat GPT to make a cari Life in cartoon form.

Ask Chat GPT to make a caricature of you based on what it knows about you. You'll get a better result if you tell it what you do. The first attempt was slide 2, it thinks I am a doctor. And I never ask it medical questions. 

Try it out and see what you get.

After working from my mom's home, I had a new appr After working from my mom's home, I had a new appreciation for my work space.

But I needed to do something different. I needed to turn it around for the light. But the alarm antenna stuck out in the corner.

I was busy doing a blog post on bringing nature into your home and I got inspired to put a green feature there and bring in two flower pots. I also got some baskets to clear the clutter.

You have the power to rewrite your story and create something beautiful.

You just need that push to start.

Consider yourself pushed!

Update on Survivor PE: We have intermittent water Update on Survivor PE: We have intermittent water but no power. Lastest news is we might have it by Thursday but I'm not holding my breath.
I wanted to do laundry today and brought the maid to my mom's house and everything but because it's a cloudy day the solar is only on two dots so we've got to conserve power.

#survivorpe #survivorgq #nopower #samomblogs #somewater
When the city tells you that you're not going to h When the city tells you that you're not going to have power for two weeks!

A huge pylon collapsed due to vandalism, wind and rust.

And then your water goes...

You freak out and then you make a plan.
For the first morning, I hot spotted.

Then in the afternoon I went to my mom to teach the rest of my classes.

Since then I have basically moved all my food over to her house and started cooking there as well. I'm also going there to charge everything.

There's no point even using the gas when all the food needs to be kept cold so it needs to be done in one place.

For the water, I now have a system. We flush the toilet with pool water. Wash ourselves and dishes with tank water. And drink from the little tank. 

Nicky has also adapted and is enjoying Granny's chairs.

Oh, and I've also been restyling furniture in my study. If the light is in front of me, it is better.  I've been dealing with work assessments. 

But we can't wait for the lights to come back on and running water.

Until then, I'm super grateful for family.
