Academy Brand
The verdict
Academy Brand founder Anthony Pitt sought to fill a gap in the market by creating affordable menswear that didn't compromise on quality or style, and in the years since launching in 2007, it has become a go-to for casual, easy-to-wear, well-made clothing. Its stores in Newtown and Bondi Beach stock the full range of shirts, shorts, tees, pants, swimwear, knitwear and outerwear, but its online portal is just as extensive for the time-poor shopper.
