Behind our website is a real clothing store with a sales staff of real people. G&L Clothing is located at 1801 Ingersoll Avenue in Des Moines, Iowa and has been an institution of downtown Des Moines for nearly nine decades. G&L dates back to 1917, when Lou Garsh and Meyer Levine first opened their doors. They sold work clothing, shoes and boots to railroaders, construction workers, farmers and tradesmen. Garsh left six months later, but Levine never got around to changing the name.
Today, G&L Clothing is owned by the Marcovis family and serves working men and women throughout Iowa and the world! Our store sells work, casual and dress clothing in regular, big and tall sizes from brands like Carhartt, Dickies, Levi’s®, Dockers®, Wrangler, Savane and more. Our huge selection of Carhartt has made us one the nation’s largest independent retailer and the largest Carhartt outlet in the Midwest! G&L carries jeans, causal pants, work pants and dress slacks pants from 26 inches to 80 inches in size; and sweatshirts, t-shirts, jackets and coats from size medium to 10X big and 5X tall.
Our footwear department stocks a wide range of work boots, safety toe, met-guard, slip-resistant, insulated, rubber, casual, dress and athletic styles. Boot and shoe sizes range from 6 to 16 in regular, wide, and extra widths. Brands include LaCrosse, Timberland Pro, Wolverine, Carolina, Carhartt, Georgia, New Balance, Merrell and more.
Besides selling to individuals, G&L Clothing supplies companies with uniforms, outdoor clothing, flame resistant clothes, safety clothing, and met-guard boots. We can also personalize clothing with embroidery or screen printing. Visit our Commercial clothing page for more information.
