The Hill-side takes its name from the Connecticut street that was once home to The Hill-side founders Emil and Sandy Corsillo. Growing up in New England the brothers developed an appreciation for American workwear which would later inspire their Hill-side label.
Today the brothers are based in Brooklyn, New York, where they handcraft neckties, handkerchiefs and scarves out of the kind of fabrics characteristic of American workwear. Selvedge denim, chambray and waxed cotton may make for unusual neckwear fabrics, but the results are striking, adding just enough refinement to make all the difference, while durable fabrics and a casual appearance make The Hill-side accessories easier to wear and longer lasting than their silk equivalents.
