Loren Spratt [LSC] is a growing, cutting-edge made to measure menswear brand. Created through a brotherhood of charismatic, handsome and industrious men, Loren Spratt has become a successful line that exudes sophistication. Thanks to the innovation and hard work of co-founders, Dalen Spratt, Juwan Mass, Brandon Theriot, and Mario McMillan, we’re becoming familiar with the name, let’s get to know the men behind the brand. Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity brothers met in Atlanta during their tenure at Historically Black College Union’s Clark University… sounds like a start to good movie, but this real-life union would forge a lifelong profitable partnership between four businessmen from different walks of life. Loren Spratt is custom menswear designer brand that was founded by four single African American friends, HBCU colleagues and frat brothers who were inspired to create garments that ensured that fellas look good for the most momentous days of their lives. Identifying a gap in the suiting market, the founders, combined their business savvy and keen sense of style with their passion for storytelling and developed the apparel company with the intention of designing suiting options that were dramatic, clean, classy and most importantly, told a story without words. Satisfying their ultimate goal of merging fashion and entertainment, these high quality, stylish tailored suits have been seen on several red carpets and worn by some of our culture’s most endearing celebrities such as Jessie T Usher and RonReaco Lee of Survivors Remorse, Hosea Sanchez of The Game, and television personality and model, Terrence J. Loren Spratt Collection recently released a collection for upcoming grooms across the United States just in time for BRIDAL SEASON. According to the guys, “The ladies have long been saying ‘Yes to the Dress’, now it’s time for the fellas to celebrate, be proud and ‘Salute to the Suit™.’ |

Born and raised in Dallas, Texas, Dalen L. Spratt is a trendsetter who has been on target to succeed since he was a young boy. The inspiring and industrious creative graduated Magna Cum Laude from Clark Atlanta University with B.A. and M.B.A degrees in Marketing. In 2007, while studying abroad in Beijing China, he immersed himself in international business and international marketing. Equipped with his education and a variety of professional experiences in the areas of marketing, writing, and wardrobe styling, the ambitious entrepreneur made the most of his time overseas by forging a relationship with a small clothing production company that led to the birth of Loren Spratt Made to Measure menswear line. “We took the Frank Lucas approach and went straight to the connect. We were never given anything. We created opportunities and capitalized on relationships to get Loren Spratt off the ground.” |

Born in New Orleans, LA and raised in Detroit, MI, Brandon Theriot is a well versed Midwestern man with a southern heart. A Graduate of Michigan State University with a B.A. in History, Theriot’s strength lie in his ability to study the trends of the past and understand modern innovation. A forward thinking people person with a passion for entrepreneurship, Theriot pursued many business ventures including drive thru networks (advertising b-rolls) and an online food delivery service, before teaming up with Spratt, Mass and McMillan to introduce what we’ve come to know as Loren Spratt. “Entrepreneurs should always be a first rate version of themselves and not a second rate version of someone else.” |
