XLARGE, a trailblazer in Los Angeles streetwear, sprang to life as a humble shop on Vermont Street in Los Feliz back in 1991. Founded by Eli Bonerz and Adam Silverman, the store quickly became the go-to spot for the diverse local community and caught the attention of luminaries like Mike D of the Beastie Boys, Spike Jones, and Chloe Sevigny. A genuine reflection of its surroundings and the Los Angeles lifestyle, XLARGE drew inspiration from workwear, vintage vibes, the club scene, mid-century design, skateboarding, and music. With its iconic Gorilla logo, XLARGE stands as a true original, leaving an indelible mark on generations of global streetwear culture.
