5 Menswear Brands To Follow On Instagram

Instagram is a digital powerhouse like no other. Amassing 300 million active monthly users over its five-year lifespan, the social networking app has developed into a hub of inspiration for worldwide consumers and brands alike.

Recently, fashion labels and retailers have begun to harness the true power of the photo-sharing app, using it as a vehicle to instantly connect and share their message with potential shoppers, sidelining the need for traditional advertising channels.

Here are the five men’s fashion brands that we think you must follow.

Converse

Global footwear giant Converse brings us real life snapshots of its iconic pumps through the popular social networking app, be it a battered pair worn to a gig or a fresh new style straight out of the box.

Alongside the many, many pictures of its shoes, you’ll also find candid interviews with celebrity fans and artistic illustrations of its most-loved pieces.
