DSTLD: Los Angeles-based DSTLD is an online-only, direct-to-consumer clothing designer and seller. Their wares include Thrashbird denim jackets.
AG Jeans: Los Angeles-based AG made their name designing flattering and socially conscious jeans, which my wife has worn happily for years. They also make denim jackets.
American Apparel: So here's the thing about Los Angeles-based AA: It's well made, and it looks great on the people who it looks great on. For everyone else, AA seems designed specifically to highlight the ways in which it does not look great on them. Don't know which category you fall into? Well, the folks around you do. Ask someone you trust if you're one of the people who AA designs its clothes to fit. If the answer is yes, then lucky you -- you have a one-stop shop for relatively inexpensive, ethically manufactured, long-lasting basics. If the answer is no, walk away from this brand forever.
