Have not visited in person (yet). And the remade denim jacket I bought online exceeded my…read moreexpectations. Not only did they come up with a really good design that fits well and will continue to exist outside of trends, but the construction is gorgeous! They chose the scrap for each pattern piece with a good eye so that it's interesting when put all together, but in a subtle way that's not like a patchy clown show. And whomever made it really can sew. It's precise and detail-oriented work. Very well-finished. So while I spent real money on this jacket, to find a piece of comparable quality and wabi-sabiness would most likely mean looking to Japanese labels, which cost four-five times as much (once imported into the US, anyway.) So having that perspective, it's actually a super bargain.

I followed Suay for a long time before visiting the store. I went when there was a local vendors…read moreand artisinal event happening on their premises and the lot across the street. The vibes are of complete expressions of community love. I had a set of yellow sweats that I wanted to turn in for the community dye. The process was simple: I met with the owner and he explained to me the process. The community dye is about a two month turnaround as they are dealing with large amounts of garment. I didn't mind as I do not have a set up that would allow me to dye heavy cotton sweats and a hoodie. I absolutely LOVED how my garments came out. I asked for them to dye it black. The dye will only take on to the natural fibers and not the synthetic material so my sweats were black with contrasting yellow stitching (my photo does no justice on how deep the black is.) This is an upcycle design sew shop. The money spent here goes towards talented and skilled garment workers, working on unique designs, depending on the materials they have. A piece bought here is UNIQUELY yours and no two are the same. The items are quality and are worth the price that they set. I was eyeing a tote made of quilted bomber jacket material. Their ottomans are also sturdy as well as stylish. Suay is a place to shop for rare and beautiful home and fashion items, a place to donate your textiles, a place to thrift and a place to bring your items to be upcycled by their community dye baths or crop

The clothing is great, and they have nice home things, and cool pajamas. Service is 5 stars; one time they sold out in of a pair of jeans I wanted, they wrote down the style and size so I could find it on my own. They also sold me another pair of my favorite jeans. The black lady who works there (may be the owner) is very helpful, chill, friendly, without being salesy and almost every time I go in there is having an interesting conversation with someone while maintaining 100% control of the shop. This is my favorite clothing store in the Silverlake/Los Feliz area.

Stumbled upon this store on the way to get dinner. Saw a jacket with a pin up style girl on it and…read moreit pulled me in. This is little Tokyo meets vintage 50s pin up with a dash of horror. The shirts that caught my eye were the vintage short sleeve sweater tops with puffy sleeves. Each one was so cute and unique. I wish I got pics. True to vintage style, the women's t's are form fitting and oh so cute. Unfortunately, I'm more of an over sized tee kinda girl. Other wise I would've bought one of everything. Ended up with a really bad ass unisex oversized shirt with a keyhole and a pinup girl as the view. It's an awesome shirt and really good quality. This place will be a regular stop for me from now on. Looove it.

Definitely, there's a vibe - part street, just shy of "hood" but in a good way. I loved their homage to L.A., Latin-street culture by way of their embroidery work (peep the font they use), and casualness. Prices are moderate: $38 for a baseball hat that I bought because I loved it! They also had some cool bucket hats with their logo embroidered on it - if I'm still thinking about it, I may just come back for it. Service was great. The cashier was super engaging and helpful. I wish them well and appreciate their product. And "To live and die in L.A." was not lost on me ...now to fight with my kids on who gets to wear the hat first! picture of hat coming soon!

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

From chic Japanese / American brands like Monitaly to international lines like Brain Dead to classics in fits you can't find anywhere else like wide-legged Ben Davis to hand-picked vintage pieces, shopping at VN is an education and a first-hand journey through the mind of two people with incredibly inspired and informed taste and a deep passion for progressive menswear. And the shopping experience is calm, friendly and warm. For all the taste involved, the experience is unpretentious and chill. Charlie is there a lot of days and he always has some great story to share, and I've often found myself wanting to take in every single item in the store. Pottery, photo books, ceramics, one-off art pieces...and a red vintage Gucci sweatshirt!?!? If the same same bores you and you're wondering what else is out there, I would absolutely encourage you to check out Virgil Normal. As a former employee of X-Large, I definitely feel the echos of the blend of a young, rebellious and creative spirit with sophisticated design tastes that XL pioneered in the early 90s at Virgil Normal, and it is a beautiful thing to behold.
