LAYIN' LOW

"When my friends in New York would ask me what I was doing in Hawai'i, I said I was 'laying low' — that's how Leilow came about. Leilow is for life and about spreading the love."

Like most successful brands out there, LEILOW is a double-headed monster forged together by an apparel shop and a clothing label, integrated with heavy influences of hip-hop, skateboarding, turntablism and street art with vintage flair and a mellow island vibe, thanks to the skills of owner Jules "King" Gayton, a DJ, native of England and original member of the Stussy NYC Tribe. I have been a fan of Leilow since day one probably 'coz of the "island feel" to its designs. Here's a sneek peak of their upcoming Fall/Holiday '08 line.
