Collection: Local Authority

Local Authority, established in 2014 by founders Alan Sutcliffe and Jeff Skene, captures the rebellious and untamed spirit of Los Angeles' underground culture. The brand was conceived from a shared passion for vintage textiles, aggressive art, and music, blending influences from surf, skate, and motorcycle subcultures. Its clothing is characterized by bold, subversive graphics and a deep commitment to meticulous craftsmanship, often centering on painstakingly reworked vintage pieces. All pieces are authentically made in the United States, allowing the design to reflect a deep pride for the local community through its use of iconic LA locations.
