Sol Angeles Is Designed for Casual Men Who Still Want to Look Good

In 2008, Eli and Lindsay Myers found themselves unemployed shortly after moving from New York to Los Angeles. The two pondered their purpose in a new city and ever-changing fashion industry, a quandary that resulted in a lifestyle brand that reflects the ideals and qualities of their new coastal environment: Sol Angeles.

The California-based lifestyle and clothing brand is designed with a low-maintenance, high-satisfaction approach, embracing the veil of casual optimism and carefree aspiration that blankets Southern California. Each piece in its repertoire is meticulously cut and sewn in Sol Angeles’ downtown LA warehouse, from the bright crewneck T-shirts and pullover sweaters to swim trunks, polos, tank tops, and more.

Appropriately dubbed “weekend wear,” Sol Angeles represents the beachy, weekend bum we all aspire to be, offering a whole collection of casual clothing that is suitable for any easygoing atmosphere you find yourself immersed in.

Of course, we have some favorites from its available assemblage. Seeing as the Sol Angeles clothing brand is built upon casual and comfort, we’re going to show off the gear that will revamp your summer wardrobe.
