little tokyo’s american apparel makes its move
Next time you’re in Little Tokyo looking for your next “Legalize LA” accessory or color-happy hoodie, don’t head to the usual spot.
American Apparel has relocated the operations of its Downtown retail store, moving from the corner location at 2nd and Central to a larger, more visible spot next to Kimski Makes inside the Hikari Apartments.
The move across the street occurred on Monday.
According to a company rep, American Apparel will retain use of its former location, possibly turning it into a clothing store for infants and toddlers.
No official plans have been made, but local parents who’d like to have a place to keep their little ones on the cutting-edge of cool, let your voice be heard in the comments!

Now we’ve just got to start making more babies…
Ha! That could be a problem for some of us…
I saw the storefront open for business this morning. Looks great! Nice to see these storefronts finally occupied. Tremendous visual improvement. I can’t wait for that restaurant adjacent to Kimski to open.
Again, a more up-to-date photo would be good.
I got a 1 yr old nephew and 3 yr old niece plus 15 other nieces/nephews, my 5 older straight brothers are very “productive” i mean fertile lol.
i don’t have any kids to buy AA stuff for. maybe if I was narcissistic and not culturally / globally aware, I would have some, but I don’t.
Mdogg, it is called Darwinian selection. Your non-participation in perpetuating your gene pool is greatly appreciated by me and, ultimately, my kids. Thanks.
i love american apparel and kids (kinda.) that comment was actually just really subtle commentary on my FAVORITE BLOG COMMENT in the history of blogging http://www.angelenic.com/751/inside-american-apparel-4000-downtown-employees-and-counting/#comment-10170
mdogg really likes to drop the phrase “narcissistic and not culturally / globally aware” anytime american apparel comes on this site
whoops, now i feel dumb
I completely misunderstood your comment Mdogg. I retract my statement.
