Rogues Gallery, arguably Portland's most discreet well-known business, is tucked away in an unmarked office complex on the edge of the industrial Bayside neighborhood. Here, seven employees create and ship the company's line of rugged men's clothing and accessories to stores across the globe. If you wanted to pay a visit to Rogues, you might be able to convince owner Alex Carleton to let you into this inner sanctum. You'd likely get a tour of Rogues' front production room, where their signature gothic designs are silk-screened by hand and then dried on a rack rotating through an enormous oven.
