Gap + GQ

10 years ago
1 min read

Just two years ago John Elliott was working out of a Los Angeles area apartment with three other guys. Today he is partnering with Gap and GQ to bring us his version of classic Americana. His collection features pieces like this classic flight jacket ($148) or Distressed Jeans ($120) as well as tees, pants, a sweatshirt, and backpack.
“One of the most incredible experiences of my life was going to the Gap near where I live in L.A. to look at my first GQ collection, and they didn’t have anything left,” reflects Elliott. He has since ascended to street wear-demigod status with his signature layered look, creating a style movement that is still gathering steam.
