New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge made an undisclosed equity investment into Tall Order, a New York-based men’s apparel and accessory company.

“While I was initially drawn to Tall Order because of the quality and size range of their products, learning more about the founders and the brand mission is what made this a natural partnership for me,” said Judge. “The Friedmans, Isaac Ash and the entire ULAC team are a talented and thoughtful group of people who truly value my feedback and align with my values around the importance of giving back to the community.

Tall Order, which honors the memory of Mike and Dan Friedman’s father, Andrew, who died in the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, makes socks for men in sizes 9 to 20 and were provided to first responders during the 9/11 recovery efforts. Tall Order also donates a portion of its profits to various health and human services organizations that focus on families and youth in times of need.

“Aaron embodies two of our dad’s greatest passions — the love of baseball and giving back,” said Dan and Mike Friedman. “We are so excited and proud to be working with Aaron in honoring our dad’s legacy.” “I’m proud to partner with Tall Order and baseball legend Aaron Judge to create apparel and accessories for men of all sizes,” said Isaac E. Ash, founder, president and chief executive officer of United Legwear & Apparel Co. “I’m especially excited to make collections for guys built like Aaron, who have a hard time finding clothes that fit well, feel great and look stylish.
