ABOUT US
MISSION STATEMENT
Bolla is a two-part independent company based in Los Angeles, bringing together our self-titled brand and creative studio.
Our brand creates clean, timeless apparel and accessories inspired by the nuances of the city, skateboarding, pop culture, the outdoors, art, and design. Each piece is created with a focus on quality, purpose, and a story behind it.
Our creative studio builds on years of experience in the action sports industry, bringing that same perspective and approach to creative direction, product development, brand activations, retail buildouts, and more.
Rooted in the ethos “Full of Life,” the two sides of Bolla are connected by a shared approach to thoughtful design, quality-made work, and creating with a story and purpose behind it.

OUR STORY
Hi! I’m James Yukawa, the owner and creative director of Bolla.
For the past 10 years, I have been inspired by skateboarding, art, design, pop & street culture, and the people who’ve influenced and paved the way for the industry.
Created in 2004 merely as a side art project, I was making street art and came up with the bubble graphic which became a sticker that I would later plaster all over school campus and the streets.
In 2010, with the technical skills that I gained throughout the years, I decided to evolve this project further into the brand that it is today.
Each piece is constructed with thought, care, a story and commitment of bringing each customer a quality made product or service that will withstand the test of time.
We are the masters of creating amazing and interactive experiences for our customers and audience.
Next time you see orange or hear of us having an event, please make sure to take the time to stop by, you won’t be disappointed!
