About Us

Drasdis & Son was opened by father and son team Joe and Joseph Drasdis in 2021. They picked a run down building in their hometown of Pottsville Pennsylvania to run their business, believing in the opportunity of the up and coming area. All products are carefully curated by Joseph Drasdis with an emphasis on quality, comfort, and style.

Joe and Joseph set out to bring a store to Pottsville that was unlike anything the city, or the county currently had. They focused on high quality, and products that you had to normally travel hours from Pottsville to purchase.

Starting with only 5 vendors they quickly grew and expanded into 25+ brands and products that turned Drasdis & Son into a specialty mens boutique.
