Job description

We were born in LA and happily live at the intersection of Northeast tradition, Midwest Grit and a SoCal, laid back lifestyle. Since our start in 2005, our founder, John O’Donnell saw the unique opportunity to reinterpret classic pieces by adding a fresh look and “why not” twist that has been a hallmark of johnnie-O.

We call this “Top Spin” and by adding just the right touch to styling, materials and craftsmanship we’ve been able to elevate classic menswear. What started with a fresh take on the quintessential polo has evolved into an enduring lifestyle brand for men, women and boys that includes woven shirts, pants, shorts, sportscoats, outerwear, swimwear, footwear, and accessories. You can see our iconic, surfer dude logo working hard and playing hard from the office to the beach, golf course to cook out and hangin’ out at all moments in between.
