Founded in 2012 by brothers Joshua and Jacob Willis with friend Ant De Padovane, Second/Layer is a Los Angeles-based menswear label born from their shared Southern California roots. The brand’s design language is deeply influenced by the region's '90s subcultures, blending the effortless cool of skateboarding and surfing with the distinct style of Mexican-American street life. Second/Layer defines its approach as 'tailor-made daily wear,' creating versatile pieces that merge relaxed, streetwear-leaning silhouettes with considered tailoring and quality fabrics sourced from Italian and Portuguese mills.
