If you think Hollywood is just bad actors and overpriced juice bars, you haven't seen Babylon LA. Founded by Lee Spielman and Garrett Stevenson—the brains behind the Hardcore wrecking ball known as Trash Talk—this label is the exact opposite of glitz and glamour. It’s loud, it’s dirty, and it smells like burnt rubber and spilled beer.
More about Babylon LA
Those looking to buy Babylon LA online usually aren't searching for "fashion." They’re looking for a uniform for the next show where teeth might get knocked out, or for a midnight session at a DIY spot. The brand is deeply rooted in Hardcore Punk and views itself more as a community project than a traditional fashion label. Their former headquarters in Hollywood (complete with its own skate bowl in the backyard) served for years as a sanctuary for everyone society labeled as "problem children."
The design is as blunt as a Trash Talk breakdown: straight talk, provocative graphics, and of course, the iconic Babylon LA Burning Palm logo. The burning palm tree is the perfect symbol for the brand's vibe—a Californian nightmare that’s a hell of a lot of fun. This Skatepunk streetwear is for people who’d rather be in the moshpit than standing in line for a trendy club.
At Bonkers Shop, we carry the stuff that makes Hollywood dangerous again. No watered-down designs, no compromises. Just pure attitude for people who know that "Hardcore" is more than just a music genre.
