Caulfield Preparatory, a Classic Menswear Novel

J. D. Salinger wrote Catcher in the Rye in 1951 about teenage confusion, rebellion, sexuality, belonging, and alienation. The hero of the novel, Holden Caulfield, has since emerged as an icon for teenage angst.

In the story, Holden Caulfield narrates his experiences after having been expelled from a preparatory school in New York.

Deeply inspired by the novel, graphic designer Vincent Flumiani established Caulfield Preparatory in Los Angeles, in 2009 as a fashionable protagonist that men could follow.

Collections are replete with luscious knit sweaters, graphic t-shirts, and more!
