Illest is more than just a simple expression. To understand, one must trace back its lineage to parent company, Fatlace. Born in 1999,
Fatlace initially started as a blog about the elements of hip-hop, with roots in music, breakdancing, and graffiti. Another collective interest among the Fatlace family is cars, which inevitably became a central focus for the brand. Fatlace originally pulled the word ‘illest’ from lyrics by New York City rappers in the early 90's, but the term would soon heighten in popularity. When Fatlace began creating cursive Illest t-shirts and stickers, followers of the brand began snatching up the iconic stickers and displaying them on their cars—demonstrating a seamless and subtle blend of hip-hop and automotive culture. Under these conditions Illest was officially born in 2006 under Fatlace’s wing. Illest now has two brick-and-mortar shops in Los Angeles and Costa Mesa, with a third opening set for January on the island of Oahu. Illest has evolved into what you see today and is still pushing forward with collaborations, motorsports sponsorships, and more. With allusions to hip hop and strong ties to car culture, Illest covets a collective and growing style of living. With that said, Illest is always receptive to change making sure that there is nothing better ≠.
