Although firmly rooted in the Southern Californian lifestyle, Rails boasts a refined European sensibility that has made it a global hit. Quickly evolving from its trademark Hunter shirt made with Tencel – a revolutionary super-soft fabric – the brand is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year and now offers a full lifestyle range.
Appropriately enough, after being named in homage to the Interrailing that founder Jeff Abrams did after college, Rails has a big focus on travel. A starting point for each collection is garments that are effortless to wear and to pack, but also pieces that appeal to its growing global market.
