About us
Our Story
Created by Thomas Ton and his younger sister, Linda Ton, with the intent of providing the people with great quality clothing at a cheap, affordable price. That is still the objective today. The business prides itself on long-lasting relationships with customers; many of whom have been doing business for over 15 years. Before Thomas and Linda found Vinatex, Linda had a space at a Swap-Meet in Chino for many years, selling shirts to support her family. With all that hard work. Thomas and Linda banded together to open up a store in the Fashion District of Los Angeles, California in 1997. They have been working hard and passionately ever since. Sadly, Thomas Ton passed away on December 7th, 2014 due to a terminal illness. He was a good man that loves his work, someone that everyone praised, always smiling and helpful. He is now succeeded by his younger sister, Linda Ton, an equally amazing, charming person. She is working hard to continue their legacy.
