Let’s Get Freaky

This newsletter is intended to touch on modern menswear through a slower, more intentional lens — with a focus on independent brands, international designers, and pieces built to last (not just trend for six weeks). Additionally, you will find brand deep-dives, honest critiques, the occasional essay, and field reports from actually wearing the clothes.

While some posts are free, the deeper work is only available to paid subscribers.

If Duchump’s been resonating and you want full access, a paid subscription gets you:

  • All posts (past + future)

  • Long-form essays & interviews

  • Curated Picks & Recommendations

  • Fashion Week coverage (when I can afford it)

It’s $8/month, or $60/year if you’re locked in (best value as it’s 33% cheaper than monthly).

No pressure either way — free readers are always welcome. But if you want to support the work and keep Duchump independent, upgrading helps more than you know.

I started this project since a lot of fashion coverage today feels shallow, rushed, or dictated by the algorithm. I’m here to slow it down and give you a more realistic perspective.

Thank you, appreciate you.
