Chinatown Market
Now trading as MARKET (Market Studios), this Los Angeles label was founded in 2016 by Mike Cherman as Chinatown Market and renamed in 2021 after criticism that the original name appropriated the neighborhood's heritage. Its output centers on graphic tees, hoodies, sweatpants, knitwear and accessories built around a distorted smiley-face logo, tie-dye, basketball motifs and bootleg-style pop-culture graphics inspired by New York's Canal Street. Collaborations span Smiley, Mike Tyson and Dennis Rodman, and the brand sells direct plus through streetwear retailers.
