Jacksonville, FL (May 2025) –TWEEDS, a luxury clothing brand founded by entrepreneur
Donald Carlson and known for its personalized styling and confidence-driven approach, is proud
to announce the opening of its first Jacksonville boutique in June 2025. Located at the heart of

goes beyond fashion—helping clients show up with confidence in their personal and
professional lives. The new TWEEDS location represents a homecoming for Michael and a full-
circle moment in his career.
“Bringing TWEEDS to Jacksonville is more than opening a store—it’s about
creating a space where people feel empowered through how they present
themselves,” said Jay. “This city shaped me, and I’m honored to return and invest in
the community that raised me.”

building a network of passionate, service-driven style consultants who bring the brand’s mission
to life.
“Each TWEEDS location is led by someone who truly understands the power of personal
transformation through style,” said Carlson. “Bringing TWEEDS to Jacksonville is part of a
broader commitment to investing in people and communities—and Michael Jay is the perfect
person to carry that torch in his hometown.”
