second layer

Founded in 2012 by brothers Joshua and Jacob Willis alongside Ant De Padovane, Second Layer is a Los Angeles-based menswear label rooted in Southern California’s skate, surf, and Chicano cultures. The founders, drawing from their upbringing in the coastal enclaves of LA, translate laid-back West Coast attitudes into sharp, elevated menswear. The brand’s signature style revolves around relaxed tailoring, fluid shirting, and perfectly draped trousers, offering a sophisticated yet effortless wardrobe. Second Layer excels at merging the gritty, authentic energy of street culture with the refined sensibilities of high fashion, creating pieces that feel both nostalgic and entirely modern.
