Coalition La

What Coalition La does

Coalition LA (legal entity: Coalition Apparel, Inc.) is a Los Angeles-based wholesale apparel company founded in 2008 that designs and supplies premium vegan outerwear to boutiques, department stores, and online retailers. Its core product portfolio spans luxury faux fur jackets, vegan leather jackets (biker, trench, belted), denim jackets, moto jackets, utility and military jackets, shackets, and coordinated vegan outerwear sets, all marketed as PETA-approved and animal-free. Design and product development are based in Los Angeles, while production is conducted at a family-owned manufacturing facility in China, giving the firm vertical control over cost and quality. The company sells exclusively through B2B wholesale channels — direct ordering via coalitionla.com (powered by Shopify), trade shows, virtual sales appointments, and the Faire marketplace — with no direct-to-consumer offering.

The business generates revenue primarily through unit-priced wholesale of stock outerwear (1 case pack MOQ of 6 units, pricing approximately $174-$222 per piece) and Private Label Programs (300-600 piece MOQ per color, ~90-day lead time) that deliver custom labeling, trims, and packaging for retailer-exclusive production runs. Net terms are offered to qualifying wholesale accounts, and a $500 minimum purchase commitment applies to virtual style showcase appointments. Coalition LA claims to serve 500+ retail partners globally with worldwide shipping, and operates additional wholly-owned sub-brands (B. COATURE, Motion by Coalition, Downtown Coalition) under the Coalition Apparel, Inc. parent. The company is privately held and family-owned, with no disclosed external institutional investment.

Broad incumbents

• Patagonia: Established US outdoor/outerwear brand with deep sustainability credentials and PETA-aligned animal welfare positions. Overlaps with Coalition LA in vegan-leaning outerwear and ethical-brand positioning, but operates at significantly larger scale across many categories.
• Alpha Industries: Long-established US manufacturer of military-inspired outerwear, bombers, and utility jackets distributed through wholesale and department-store channels. Comparable to Coalition LA in jacket manufacturing and wholesale go-to-market, but broader, heritage-positioned, and not vegan-specialized.
• Stella McCartney: Global luxury fashion house with a strict no-leather, no-fur policy and a substantial outerwear offering. Overlaps with Coalition LA on cruelty-free positioning and outerwear, but operates in the luxury tier and through DTC plus high-end department stores rather than boutique wholesale.

Emerging players

• Sans Beast: Independent vegan accessories and outerwear brand focused on animal-free leather and cruelty-free materials for women. Compares to Coalition LA in vegan material specialization and women's outerwear, though smaller in scale and primarily DTC rather than wholesale.
