An ode to growing up in California in the ’70s, Mother focuses on vintage-inspired garments with a modern touch. When Lela Becker and Tim Kaeding launched their denim brand in 2010, they fully embraced the irreverent West-Coast attitude. From its cult-status jeans in a range of fits and washes to outerwear and T-shirts touting clever phrases, the label sets itself apart from the denim status quo.
