MARKET

About MARKET

MARKET, also known as Chinatown Market, was founded by Mike Cherman. The label is based in Los Angeles, but it draws heavily on the bootleg culture of New York City, especially Canal Street, which is well known for its bargain shopping scene. That spirit runs through the clothes in playful graphics and bold colours, with NYC culture showing up across the range. MARKET has a real talent for taking designs that might otherwise look thrifty and turning them into high end streetwear, and the pieces are easy to tell apart from other brands. The label is now moving towards a more global movement. You'll find it at streetwear retailers such as Caliroots, Extra Butter and Sneaker Politics.
