OUR CULTURE
INSPIRED BY THE PAST.
We are a family operated, minority-owned business based in our hometown of Los Angeles, California. Approaching four decades in the textile and garment industry, our parents taught us that fostering a positive work environment is essential for achieving excellence in quality, service, and attention to detail. Our growing team represents Los Angeles, with individuals from diverse nationalities and backgrounds who have all established roots here, deepening our connection with the community.
Our headquarters is a collaborative space where our creative and production teams work side by side to develop every product from start to finish. We push the boundaries of what has been done before through continuous experimentation and learning from our manufacturing partners. We provide a bespoke, non-corporate, and innovative service, dedicated to bringing our clients' brand visions and aspirations to life.
HYPERLOCAL MANUFACTURING
MADE IN LA.
labdip is proudly made in Los Angeles, where we maintain complete control over every step of the design and manufacturing process. We are dedicated to sustainable practices through fair labor, minimizing environmental impact, upholding ethical standards, and maximizing efficiency. We aim to employ hundreds more workers in the Los Angeles area as we continue to grow and revive the garment industry in the United States.
All knitting, cutting, sewing, dyeing and customizing is done in Los Angeles within a 5 mile radius. Partnering with local craftspeople allows us to support our community, while reducing the impact of our supply chain's carbon footprint. We work with Los Angeles County factories that pay above the minimum wage per hour ($17.27/hour as of July 2024) and treat their workers fairly. California currently has the highest EPA standards in the USA and all of our factories adhere to these standards. By dyeing and finishing all of our garments in California, you are assured our fabric processing is environmentally friendly.
OUR QUALITY
DESIGNED TO LAST.
Committed to ethical manufacturing and unrivaled quality, we work with top-tier manufacturers to create custom knit fabrics to our specifications and to ensure a premium and consistent product. All of our cotton fabrics are produced in Los Angeles using 100% US-grown cotton. We treat all of our fabrics in-house before they are cut, sewn, and garment dyed — a production method that results in a soft hand feel and eliminates shrinkage. Our garments bridge the gap between comfort and luxury, delivering effortless style that looks as good as it feels.
We partner closely with local family-owned factories to produce small and large batch runs, crafting each piece using classic production methods combined with advanced technology.
WHY USE OUR BLANKS?
OUR MISSION IS SIMPLE – TO CRAFT SUSTAINABLE, ETHICALLY MADE LUXURY BLANKS IN THE USA THAT WILL STAND THE TEST OF TIME.
Utilizing our luxury blanks allows you to undercut large production minimums and to design on a quicker schedule without the headaches of factory development. We present brands the ability to create and design, avoid excess inventory, and easily transition between seasons and collections.
This is essential to building a successful brand.
