CLIFTON WILSON

At Thistle & Oak, we’re thrilled to introduce Clifton Wilson, Founder and Creative Director of his eponymous line, as one of the standout designers in our curated collection. Clifton is a designer and entrepreneur dedicated to redefining men’s accessories with a timeless approach. His years of experience at Nordstrom honed his keen eye for craftsmanship, while his natural sense of style has earned him national recognition—he was named a Top 5 finalist in Esquire magazine’s “Best Dressed Real Men” contest, chosen from more than 10,000 entries.

With his namesake brand, Clifton brings that expertise to an exceptional collection of pocket squares, ties, cufflinks, and scarves, crafted from luxurious materials like cashmere, linen, and silk. His pieces embody both heritage and innovation, with a signature crest logo that reflects his commitment to timeless elegance and refinement.

Today, Clifton’s designs can be found in specialty stores across the country, where they continue to resonate with the modern gentleman—men who value quality, character, and the art of dressing well. “Clifton’s work is about more than accessories—it’s about giving men the ability to express themselves through subtle, sophisticated details. His designs strike that rare balance of being both classic and modern.”

We are honored to feature Clifton Wilson at Thistle & Oak and look forward to sharing his craftsmanship and story with you.
