In this episode, Nick sits down with Neale McDonald, founder of the small‑batch menswear label Adamant Clothing, to talk about the journey from skate‑scene style obsession to designing handmade garments in Scotland. They dive into craftsmanship, what “made in” really means, the frustrations of modern social media, menswear trends, and the challenges of running a tiny self‑funded brand in a big‑brand world. A thoughtful conversation about passion, quality, and why the humble overshirt might be the perfect garment. You can find Adamant on the web at adamantclothing.com and on Instagram as @adamant_clothing Garmology is by Nick Johannessen.
