Joshua Katcher started the men’s lifestyle website, The Discerning Brute, in 2008. The site features editorial focusing on “fashion, food and etiquette for the ethically handsome man.” Katcher has created a community that celebrates visionaries and creates discourse with creative-influencers who want to redesign the world, redefine success, and look good doing it. Katcher launched the Brave GentleMan label and eCommerce store as founder and creative director in 2010. Brave GentleMan is a fusion of future-textiles with traditional production methodology. The label employs innovative fabrics throughout the collection including; “future suede”, “future leather” and “future wool”, which are superior to less durable fibers derived from animal byproducts. Katcher has created a high-end, sustainable and ethically made men’s collection. Brave GentleMan offers luxury, New York made suiting, premium footwear produced in Portugal, and hats made in Los Angeles. The brand’s accessories are crafted from “future-leather” assembled in New York’s Historic Garment Center. Katcher is an adjunct professor at Parsons The New School for Design and has taught Sustainable Fashion at the Laboratory Institute of Merchandising. He has lectured at Princeton, The American University of Paris, Parsons, Brown, UPenn, and FIT among others.
