They opened their first brand store in 2019 in St. Louis, Missouri, which has been voted the number one men’s clothing store in St. Louis for two years running. The Normal Brand now operates eleven brick and mortar stores of its own around the country, sells to 500 wholesale partners, and sells online through its website, which serves customers across the United States and globally at https://thenormalbrand.com.
