Second/Layer

In 2013, Second/Layer was established by Joshua and Jacob Willis, who were born and raised in southern California, along with their friend Anthony Franco. This brand is heavily influenced by skate and surf culture and is known for its ability to create styles that combine the laid-back vibe of the West Coast with sleek designs and sophisticated silhouettes. Instead of following fleeting fashion trends, Second/Layer strives to produce menswear that seamlessly reflects the wearer’s personal style. The collection features a range of refined essentials that balance the youthful energy of streetwear with subdued tones and high-quality materials. The brand’s signature script detailing can be found on comfortable loungewear, while its logo graphics, inspired by band tours, add a touch of liveliness to sweatshirts and t-shirts. The brand also offers versatile jackets and button-up shirts in monochromatic checks and stripes, which add a touch of elegance to layered outfits.
