Located at 461 North Robertson Boulevard, Represent debut store in Los Angeles is adjacent to brands such as Louis Vuitton, Maxfield and Chrome Hearts. The city itself has always served as a point of inspiration for Represent and its founders, brothers George and Mike Heaton.

“Mike and I have been taking trips to LA for nearly a decade now, and you can really see the aesthetics come through in the brand’s DNA,” said George Heaton, co-founder of Represent, in a statement. With our growth strategy focused on America, we wanted to set out a base, a community, and a team stateside while being able to connect with our consumers face to face, and it felt right to open a store here.”

An omnichannel brand founded in 2011, Represent has gained a large international following over the past few years, driven by its retail and pop-up locations. Expanding its presence in the United States, the brand aims to set roots in the country over the coming year.
