History
Founded in 1958 as "Ed Mitchell" by Ed and Norma Mitchell,[2] the original shop in Westport, Connecticut was formerly a plumbing-supply store[3] and had only 800 ft2 of space selling three men's suit styles.[4] Jack Mitchell joined the company in 1969.[4] In 1990, Linda Mitchell, Jack's wife, joined the business to focus on women's wear.
The company acquired Richards of Greenwich, Connecticut in 1995 and Marsh's of Long Island, New York in 2005.[5] Four years later, they acquired Wilkes Bashford of San Francisco and Palo Alto. The company began e-commerce in 2014. Mitchells acquired Marios of Bridgeport, Connecticut, Seattle and Portland in October 2015, and Stanley Korshak of Dallas in 2025.[6]
