British brand Arne expands into the US market

British DTC brand Arne has announced its entry into the US market.

British DTC brand Arne has announced its entry into the US market. The manufacturer specializing in minimalist fashion is preparing to open its retail stores in New York and Los Angeles.



Last week Arne launched its online store in the US and also announced its intention to introduce retail stores. In its home country, the brand has attracted a star-studded clientele over the past five years, creating minimalist silhouettes at reasonable prices.

The brand introduced its first shoe collection in spring 2022. Currently, all products are handcrafted in a factory in Portugal using handmade, genuine Italian suede and leather.

Arne regularly opens pop-up stores in the UK in Liverpool, Manchester and Glasgow. With success in the local market, the company attempted to expand into the US, with full-size permanent stores opening immediately.

"From day one, we were clear on Arne's mission - providing consumers with accessible, high-quality, and well-designed everyday apparel essentials," Reece Broadhurst said in a statement. "We saw a unique opportunity to connect with individuals who were searching for those missing, core pieces in their wardrobes, and to listen to their feedback, wants, and needs to fill a void within the market".
