Ep. 83: Mark Cho of The Armoury

On this week’s episode of The Worn & Wound Podcast, we sit down with Mark Cho, one of the best-dressed gents around and co-founder of the men’s haberdashery, The Armoury. Whenever I run into Mark or see him pop across my Instagram timeline, I can’t help but be jealous of what he’s wearing. Everything fits impeccably, the fabrics are beautiful, and his pairing of colors and patterns is on point. Mark's attention to detail is second to none, and that meticulousness is carried over to The Armoury, and that’s precisely what makes the store so great. Mark’s also a watch guy with a really neat, focused collection. Today, we chat about the Armoury, men’s style, watches, the Japanese concept of mono no aware, and a whole lot more. This week’s episode of The Worn & Wound podcast is brought to you by Citizen and their iconic line of Eco-Drive watches.
