My bf is in love with this store.
We came to LA with three goals in mind:
1. Disneyland
2. Hello Kitty's 35th Birthday (more my goal, but w/e)
3. Shopping!!
I saw a lot of really pricey items here. I didn't really bother to even look at the brands that they carried after I looked at the price tags of accessories, toys, and small goods. A good selection of sunglasses. For some reason they were selling some pretty expensive ass cologne. It had skulls on it, and was like mad money for it. Kinda confused by it. Must be some avant garde shit I don't understand. All I know is that if you can't afford it in the first place, then you have no business worrying about wtf it's for. It could be an air freshener for the bathroom for all I care.
The goods I managed to notice were Nike, Carhart (big deal to us!), Neighborhood, original fake, and visvim. You can go on their website http://www.unionlosangeles.com/main.php if you wanna see the rest of what they carry.
I think out of all the street wear stores I have encountered here, this was the one that despite how jaded they all are about the broke asses, window shoppers, tourists, assholes, nice people, celebrities, etc that come in here...they still maintained some laid back friendliness. My bf wanted to check out the plain Nike SB hoodie, and the guy at the checkout wanted to show him "something cool" he just notice about the jacket. Didn't ignore us, helpful, and not pushy. I like his style.
To the left of the store is a small stairway leading up to the half-second floor of the shop. More clothing, and a few shoes here and there.
This store is in a row next to Stussy, UNDFTD, and random funiture pieces store. We came on a Sunday evening around 4pm, and parking wasn't difficult. We wanted to steer from the crazy traffic in front of the store, and opted for the residential parking behind the building across from this row. We returned a second time after hitting up the other two stores next door (gotta make sure you do price comparisons!) and decided the Nike SB jacket was worth the money.
My bf really liked this store, despite being a Supreme and Undftd afficiando. I think its because of the lowkey and chill vibe of the store/merchandise.
