Los Angeles FC News Release

The Los Angeles Football Club (LAFC) and the Los Angeles based street wear brand PAISABOYS will drop the first of two apparel collections that blend the iconic Black & Gold of LAFC with the classic Mexican American designs and attitude PAISABOYS has become known for.

The limited collection will go on sale FRIDAY, April 26 at 10 a.m. PT on PAISABOYS.com, 12 p.m. PT on MLSStore.com and in-person at LAFC HQ at BMO Stadium SATURDAY, April 27 at 12 p.m. PT.

“LAFC prides itself on elevating the next wave of fashion and creative brands and artists from the Los Angeles community while telling stories that resonate with our fans,” said LAFC VP of Brand Engagement & Merchandise, Patrick Aviles. “Representing the large Mexican community of Los Angeles, PAISABOYS bring their grit and edge to the world of streetwear fashion with that same relentless drive to achieve their dreams. This collection draws inspiration from the pride of Mexican-American heritage and the determination of the immigrant spirit. Similar to LAFC, PAISABOYS have built a strong following in the community and are poised to share their visions and creativity with the world.”

The LAFC x PAISABOYS collection includes the Al Cien hoodie, Sueños t-shirt, LAFC x PB snapback hat and the Sueños double-sided scarf. Each piece was thoughtfully designed to represent the City and Club, with tags that resonate with the deep-rooted Latino influence that courses through both brands.

PAISABOYS was founded by Joey Barba & Javi Banderas in Los Angeles in 2016. The themes and designs for their line of streetwear are influenced by both founder’s upbringings in Los Angeles, where they continue to work with their immigrant fathers who hold manual labor jobs. In turn, their shared experience and upbringings have shaped the authentic and unapologetic edge to the brand’s designs and cultural relevance.
