Now, they house a bunch of different trinkets from mugs, books, apparel, candy, stickers, cameras, film, cards, incense, soaps, etc. I ended up getting a few little items - a deck of cards, stickers, and flower seeds. Staff on deck was a female who was nice to talk to in terms of her informing me on the changes that they've made to the shop since they've moved from their old spot. If you're in need of a gift, stop on in cause you never know what you might find here.

I bought a sweater and a flannel and after wearing the sweater for only one night, I had to write…read morethis review. I tried on the flannel at the store which I really enjoyed and bought the sweater after being recommended it from the dude who was helping me. I can confidently say he was 100% right about the sweater. The quality of the fabric is genuinely worth the price. Immediately, when I put on the sweater for the first time, I could tell this was the real deal. The sweater felt like how sweaters used to be made back in the day when they had a ton of quality and you knew it was going to last a long time with proper care. And the same with the flannel I immediately loved the flannel when I tried it on but the sweater was something truly amazing in my opinion. I used to be into Born X Raised a lot and would buy various sweaters from their drops over the years literally hoping they would one day use the quality Freenote uses and they never have. Over the last year was looking for a new label to support and it's definitely this one. I was extremely happy with my purchases and look forward to returning

I hate wearing pants, but I when I have to, I wear Swrve…read more These are the only jeans that I can comfortably walk, jog, and cycle in.  If you've ever had an issue with jeans whose fabric was not breathable, or experienced thigh chafing when trying to ride a bike, then you will understand. At first I had a bit of sticker shock, but over the past 8 years, I have not been able to find anything even close to their pants and shorts.  They are in a league of their own.  I attempted to support other LA brands like DSTLD, but I can only wear those for ~20-30 minutes before I realize how much I hate the fit. Swrve literally has no other competition in this arena, other than maybe Lululemon (which is not as dressy looking, and even pricier).  And if you factor in that Swrve will patch up minor wear and tear for you over the years for free, then it's totally worth it.  The main reason they're so comfortable is the gusseted crotch.  Their newest shorts (and possibly pants as well) seem to have en even larger diamond patch of material, which feels even roomier/stretchier than their previous iterations.   For the southern California climate, I highly recommend their lightweight shorts.

I love local companies!…read more Velo love is the company store for the urban cycling Swrve brand. Hipster stuff in hipster central. Love their cycling pants for men. They look chic and are functionally designed. Wish their women's line was a bit more expanded but looks like that is evolving. The store is cutely curated with books, old school memorabilia and hip art. For LA urban cyclists this is the spot.

They look great and feel high quality. The order was supposed to include two pairs of laces and a kiltie. While the laces were included, the kiltie was missing. I reached out to SOP, and Brandon was responsive and said they were in the mail, but they never arrived. It's now been over two months. Really disappointed with SOP. This was my first purchase and will most likely be my last. When you're spending $700 on boots, you expect everything that's supposed to come with them.

For denim fans, this is a great shop to check out…read more I went in because I recently learned of this brand and really wanted to see their work up close. The denim patterns have a nostalgic look and feel high quality. They offer a couple of variation in fit and since they are small batch, those can vary. The shop has a western feel but our salesman made it feel homie. Super knowledgeable and helpful. I wouldn't expect anything else from New York. They are currently hemming the pair I bought and can't wait to wear my 1st pair.
