Advertorial · Paid content from RetailerLos Angeles Apparel · The factory’s seconds
If you shop LA Apparel on Depop, you know the hunt.
The factory sells one-off samples straight off its floor in South Central LA. Hesitate and they're someone else's. Here's where the rest of it goes, and how to shop it without refreshing an app.
One checkout · One shipping fee · Ships from LA
The hunt
Los Angeles Apparel runs its own Depop shop. It's the factory itself, listing samples and one-offs that came off the line. Every piece is one of one, so you're up against everyone else watching the same feed. Tap a second too late and it's gone. Win one and you pay shipping on it, then again on the next.
Where the rest goes
Depop only shows part of what comes off that floor. Samples, seconds and overruns also go to the factory's own flea market in South Central, where locals line up and shop the racks in person. If you don't live in LA, you never see most of it.
Same factory you already trust. Just a different way in.
Shop the whole drop
We buy from LA Apparel in bulk, pallets at a time, and list it here. You see a whole drop at once instead of one piece at a time, and it all goes through one checkout with one shipping fee. Right now that's cropped bull denim, baby rib tanks and mini shorts, and heavyweight tees.
It's the same stock: samples, seconds and short runs. Most pieces are slightly imperfect, and where a flaw is known, the listing names it. Each listing is one lot, so the sizes are whatever came off the pallet.
What you're getting
- Made by Los Angeles Apparel in South Central LA
- Samples, seconds and short runs from the factory
- One checkout, one shipping fee

What people ask
Is it really Los Angeles Apparel?
Yes. Every piece here was made by Los Angeles Apparel in its factory in South Central LA. We buy it from them and sell it here. Retailer isn't part of LA Apparel.
Why is it less than LA Apparel's own price?
These are samples, seconds and short runs, bought in bulk. Most are slightly imperfect. Where a flaw is known, like a small hole, an off shade or a loose thread, the listing says so.
What size should I get?
Each listing is one lot, usually in one size, and the size is on the card. Measurements are on the product page.
How fast does it ship?
It ships from Los Angeles within 72 hours, tracked. To Australia it's tracked and insured, door to door.
Do I have to join Retailer+?
No. Every piece has a price on its own. Retailer+ is Retailer's membership: members pay 35% less on every order. It starts with a free trial, then it's monthly, and you can cancel in one click. The terms are on the product page before you buy.
If you've been losing one-offs on Depop, this is the same factory's stock without the race. When a lot sells through, it's gone.
