A pioneer of Los Angeles streetwear culture, XLarge started as a shop in the LA neighborhood of Los Feliz, on Vermont street in 1991. Opened by Eli Bonerz and Adam Silverman, the store catered to their diverse community and was quickly adopted by personalities such as Mike D of the Beastie Boys, Spike Jonez and Chloe Sevigny. The XLarge clothing brand was a true reflection of its surroundings and Los Angeles lifestyle. The brand drew inspiration from workwear, vintage and club scene aesthetics; to mid-century design, skateboarding and music influences. Iconic for its Gorilla logo, XLarge is established as one of the originals and continues to influence generations of streetwear culture worldwide.

S/DOUBLE is the creative endeavour of Shawn StÞssy, the legendary designer behind one of streetwear’s most iconic brands. Founded in 2008, S/DOUBLE allows StÞssy to explore his love for surf culture and considered design, while staying true to his in-house creative process. Rooted in the essence of StÞssy’s surfing beginnings, the brand plays on his initials and represents a deeper connection to his roots in craftsmanship and artistic expression.

S/DOUBLE remains a smaller, more thoughtful project with a focus on quality over quantity. StÞssy describes it as a way to re-engage with his passion for design without the aggressive push of mass-market trends.

The brand’s design language blends surf-inspired aesthetics with subtle graphic details, often incorporating StÞssy’s signature touch, all while maintaining an understated, timeless appeal. With S/DOUBLE, StÞssy offers a more refined approach to menswear that celebrates the artistry of surfboards, apparel, and a life well-lived. It’s a label that remains a personal project—a garage-born, ever-evolving experiment that carries forward StÞssy’s legacy with a renewed focus on authenticity, individuality, and creativity.

we’re szade, and we design and create sunglasses with the world in mind.

born and raised in melbourne, australia, we’re a young couple who started szade with the mission of bringing the most elevated styles and designs to the market, with the best quality and hand-feel, for the most accessible price. with backgrounds in pharmacy, architecture, furniture design, fashion, skate and business, we bring our unique skill set and knowledge to absolutely everything that we do.

in addition to sustainability, we also wanted to address something that’s often overlooked in the fashion industry ; accessibility. brands, designers and corporations are now aware of the importance of inclusivity, diversity and sustainability when marketing their products, but few address accessibility, which is one of the most important, core values of our world here at szade.

and just like you, we’re trying our best to be kinder to the planet. in the beginning we set out to make our sunglasses as best as we possibly could. this led us to look fashion’s biggest problem; plastic.

we started by making each and every pair of our sustainable poly carbonate range with recycled materials so that we’re utilising industry waste that’s readily available to create with instead of using virgin material. this is a constant work in progress for us and we’re always looking for ways to be gentler, more innovative, cleaner and more efficient. as technology improves, so will we.

accessibility means doing our best to keep prices reasonable and fair so that we can make szade accessible to a larger community and cross section of people.

along the road we’ve built an incredible collective that we invite you to be part of. having launched in the middle of the pandemic in 2020, we know just how important connection and community are. whether it’s hosting raves in new york, pop-ups in tokyo, pool parties in LA or sponsoring our favourite home-town festivals, our goal is to be more than a brand, but a network of like-minded people.
