Think of what you would wear walking on the bluffs of the northern California coast, waves smashing against the rocks, moist crisp air, and surfers in wetsuits below - this is Marine Layer. Nostalgic California "absurdly soft" clothes. I've slowly transformed most of my wardrobe into this brand without any regrets. Highest quality fabrics, overly generous return policy, and friendly and knowledgable staff. Rich and Val get an extra shout out. Conveniently located at Ponce City Market.
I've bought a couple of shirts here - the fabric is always so soft and after a couple of years of everyday wear, the colors haven't faded. But even better is that when I needed a size up on one of their shirts and they didn't have in stock at the store, they set up my order for me, free shipping included! The prices aren't cheap, but considered the service and quality you receive, it's definitely worth a look if you're at PCM.
My Marine Layer clothes are consistently in my Favorites/Heavy Rotation clothing group. Style wise they are a little understated relative to my typical choices, but the clothes are so fantastic I end wearing them all the time - super comfortable and super cute. I have always had great experiences in the ATL store - much better than San Fran, their home base.
The store is nice and clean but the girl inside wasn't even very well informed about how the clothing is made or explain the "recycled material" statement. In my honest opinion, this is a ridiculously overpriced dumb-hipster targeted clothing that tries to sell with a "responsible" marketing idea that the material is supposedly "recycled" with God knows what procedures and "standards" and you would think "oh, if it's recycled it must be chick, cool and affordable" but an ugly shirt is $100 so... I would personally not recommend this store to anyone trying to buy sustainable and eco-friendly clothing, you are far better buying in a thrift store and washing stuff after purchase. This is just "the right bait" for "the right fish", it depends on you whether or this is you.
Love the soft t-shirts and the fact they use recycled material. The clothing fits me well and it looks good. This store in particular always has a friendly staff.
WONDERFUL t-shirts! So soft and comfortable. Their other clothes i.e. dressier tops for women, button-ups for men, etc. are also great - they are fun, different and stand out from a lot of other places. I want to go to the beach every time I go in. The staff have always been helpful as well.
Loved shopping here. Emily helped me and made my experience so personal!!!! She was super friendly and knowledgeable and made me feel like I was shopping with a friend. Will definitely be back.
Tyler and Krystal and the entire staff are exceptional!
Helpful staff and plenty of sizes in store make shopping here a great time
