Host 1
We are now talking about Brimble and Clark. That's the name of the company we're locked in. We're all operating up to and including tier one for the rest of this.
Host 2
Brimble and Clark is absolutely the name of a bar that I've been to and had just the worst variation on a martini I've ever had in my life, I think.
Host 1
Oh, yeah. To me, Brimble and Clark is a bar where the front door that goes out onto the street is like a bookshelf.
Host 2
Brimble and Cluck is a restaurant that serves ox tongue, but not in the way that you might be familiar with.
Host 1
They do things a little differently at Brimbluck.
Host 2
Brimble and Clark does. They do do things differently.
Host 1
They do actually do this. This is. We're going to start with a little bit of a description of the company and then we're going to talk about the article, the company, Brimble and Clark. I'm addicted to saying the name. Hey, you out there listening? Say it yourself. Pretty fun.
Host 2
Straight up. Straight up. Brimbling my shit. And if you're thinking, is it addressed anywhere in the article and is it going to be addressed anywhere in the episode it's named Brimble and Clark, the answer is no.
Host 1
I have looked it up. I have tried to find out why it's called this. It is DC's finest bespoke suits and custom menswear. Now, why is TF talking about DC's finest bespoke suits and Custom Menswear? Thank you for asking. This is. This is some of their About Us page before we go on to the article. At Brimble and Clark, we make the lightest weight business clothes that exist with the greatest range of movement. Custom made for you. Our brand has successfully crafted apparel for 67 athletes in the major leagues and as well as Diplo and DJ Snake.
Host 2
Yeah, because of course Diplo has to be like super, super active, right?
Host 1
Yeah. In his suits as well. In addition to our achievements in fashion, we provided image consulting services to influential figures such as the US Secretary of Defense, as well as CTOs and CEOs of the most powerful defense corporations of the planet, including Raytheon and Lockheed Martin.
Host 2
Finally found out where Hexith gets those fucking ass American flag pocket squares.
Host 1
Oh, yeah. Like they did a whole. I. I've been. I've been going through their Instagram. I've. Instead of sleeping, I've been going through their Instagram. They love to dress a UFC fighter in American flag lined lined suits. And then like have him like get kicked in the head while wearing the Brimble and Clark suit and be like, it's for combat.
Host 2
Have they dressed Conor McGregor? Do we know that Conor McGregor, also a tight suited, you know, an enjoyer of a sort of like very tight suit.
Host 1
So where are we going with this? The next paragraph will tell you. Brimble and Clark's expertise lies in teaching individuals how to use clothing as a form of costuming to achieve strategic objectives. Yes, yes.
Host 2
I'm always doing this every day of my life. I lock in, I am in the area of operations and my objective is, you know, the survival, survivability, onion. Don't get seen, don't get hit, don't get penetrated. That's the kind of tactical thinking, that's the kind of OODA loop I'm working with when I decide to wear a skirt. So people aren't going to yell at me if I use the women's bathroom. And that is, I guarantee you, a higher order of tactical thinking than 90% of the guys buying these suits.
Host 1
Oh, we're going to learn about who buys these suits because simcon applies this unique playbook to assist clients under the US Special Forces and SOCOM in mastering civilian tire for their next job interview.
Host 2
That's so funny to be like, yeah, I did war crimes for 20 years. Now I have to master civilian attire because for some reason I want to get like a real job instead of any of the post special forces jobs where you like hand make knives or whatever. No, I have to work in the corporate world and I need someone to explain to me what this thing called a button is.
Host 1
I guess partly also it's because like those guys that hand make knives or do black rifle coffee company or whatever, like these Instagram CHUD brands like Hegseth is probably interested in getting those procured. Like Black Rifle Coffee company is going to be doing like all of the freeze dried coffee for like aircraft carriers.
Host 2
It implies that you're so special forces that you don't ever wear the like service uniform. You don't wear the uniform that's like a suit. So you're just like, you're in camouflage gear all the fucking time. Right. You've grown the beard out to duck dynasty levels and you're just like, I've actually had so much like traumatic damage to my eardrums that I forgot how to dress myself in anything other than multicam.
Host 1
Yeah, I've essentially been reverse raised and now I've been re raised by wolves.
Host 2
When they say the army like Breaks you down and then builds you back up. Turns out as a prank, sometimes they forget to do the second part. And now one tailor has to teach you how to tie your shoelaces again.
Host 1
We teach men with tools to choose to choose and how to cut them to engineer specific reactions from the people our clients interact with to help achieve their objectives. It's like you can tactically interdict any
Host 2
conversational partner to explaining the concept of like, making a good first impression based on how you dress to a guy who has only thought about shooting people.
Host 1
We use our playbook, honed over more than a decade of advising most powerful men on earth to assist our clients, men and women like you. First mention of women in the article. To thank a community that has allowed us to serve them for so many years. We also teach men under under seal teams.
Host 2
I just really think about Sim Khan, right? The guy who designs these suits, taking a gigantic reacher looking dude pointing you in the mirror and teaching you how to tie a tie by going. So you assault through the ambush and then around the ambush and then.
Host 1
And then you kick the door in.
Host 2
Yeah.
Host 1
So to thank a community that's allowed us to serve them for so many years, we also teach men under the Naval under SEAL teams and the Green Berets transitioning into the workforce how to. And this is why I included the about us thing before you go into the article. Incorporate rank indicators in civilian attire to immediately signal the respect they deserve at their next job.
Host 2
Yeah, I'm doing this shit all the time, but nobody's saluting me. I don't know what the fuck is up. Like, I've. I've got my, like, captain's pips on the rank, on the, on the shoulders of every T shirt. But mostly it just seems to frame my T shirts and nobody respects me.
Host 1
And so this is. So this is Brimble and Clark. Now. I didn't want you to see that beforehand. I'm just gonna.
Host 2
No, that was magical.
Host 1
I'm gonna send you a little.
Host 2
I really need to know how they're incorporating the rank insignia. Like, are we sort of twin lapel pins? Is that what we're doing? Are we. Are we like, sewing chevrons to the sleeves of a suit?
Host 1
Okay, here's call to action. Are you a listener in D.C. or Northern Virginia? Can you please, or are you around, like, you know, suited chuds who have to, like, you know, go and sell their homemade knives to the Pentagon. Now please look out for someone with rank insignias on their jacket. Now, November and Hussein, please scroll down until you get to the second image.
Host 2
Yes, yes. This is a beautiful little tableau we're looking at here.
Host 1
This is the header.
Host 2
This is the header of the website for the military division, which announces custom garments engineered for ballistic movement. Now, I'm not sure what ballistic movement is. Maybe they mean movement when you're shooting at people. And we've got a bunch of guys in like regular multicam. We've got one guy wearing a kind of like fleece trimmed aviator leather jacket and driving gloves reloading an M4. We've got a guy in an aggressively pinstriped double breasted suit with a pistol and then a guy in a contrast lapel. Oh, God, that's horrible.
Host 1
A contrast lapel tuxedo holding what I can assume isn't. Is that an AR15?
Host 2
It is, yeah.
Host 1
Yeah. Holding an AR15. All of who, like all of these guys look as though, like, these are guys that I think are getting killed by John Wick.
Host 2
Yeah, I believe so. I think what they're aiming to be is the guy who John Wick leaves alive because he respects him.
Guest
Their suits are too good.
Host 2
Yeah, yeah, the John Wick minibus.
Host 1
You know, the other thing about them is that they're all very tight. This is true for a long time.
Host 2
This is an actual sea change. Right. For a long time he joked about the traditional usian huge suit on kill. James Bond. That was also true of this kind of genre of like you have to wear a suit to work and your work is chud, like the Secret Service or whatever was for a long time metonymically like Sears suits with a really kind of baggy cut in the sort of like, you know, waist to accommodate like a pistol in this case. No, we're changing. And now everyone has to dress like Andrew Tate. Everyone has to dress like a UFC fighter. And that means tight everywhere.
Guest
I have a concept for an advertisement for this company. It's very much inspired by James Bond or sort of the sort of spy aesthetic. And the kind of like the Bond girl in this situation goes up to one of these guys and looks up and down at him and says, is that like a phone in your pocket or are you just glad to see me? And then he pulls out a gun and that's it. That's the advertisement.
Host 1
Get off your damn phone.
Host 2
It's not even really James Bond anymore because like most recently, Daniel Craig's suits as James Bond, they were, you know, they were all wide shoulders. They were a little slim. Yeah. Next to these guys who, like, they look like they've been painted on.
Guest
This is quite an interesting point because I was thinking about this in like a different context, but it's very much like the. There's a certain kind of like, I think, sort of older millennial man kind of got their style in slim cart, tighter fitting clothes and hasn't really been able to transition to sort of looser, baggier wear in sort of menswear space.
Host 2
And that's real, that's 100% real. The way out of this is, as you say, to transition. I can still wear the skinny feet. It's fine when I do it.

Hosts: TRASHFUTURE crew [@raaleh, @HKesvani, @milo_edwards, @inthesedeserts, @postoctobrist]
In this lively and irreverent segment, the TRASHFUTURE crew dives into the bizarre world of Brimble and Clark—a DC-based bespoke suit tailor catering to America’s military elite, high-powered defense contractors, and a curious cast of “chud” influencers and ex-special forces operatives transitioning to civilian life. The hosts dissect Brimble and Clark’s branding, their absurdly tactical approach to suiting up, and what it says about American masculinity, the defense industry, and the postwar psychic landscape.
