Women's Chrome Hearts in Toronto.

About Chrome Hearts

Chrome Hearts started in Los Angeles in 1988 as a maker of leather motorcycle riding gear. Hypebeast names Richard Stark, John Bowman and Leonard Kamhout as its founders, and Kamhout, a silversmith, made the sterling silver grommets and other details on the first leather jackets.

The line now covers handmade jewellery in sterling silver, gold, platinum and precious stones, with clothing, eyewear, luggage, leather goods and furniture in exotic woods. Its pieces are made at the company's own factory in Hollywood, California, and the work is led by Richard Stark and his wife, Laurie Lynn Stark. In 2022 the two received the CFDA's Geoffrey Beene Lifetime Achievement Award in New York.

Its own stores are in Asia, the United States, London, Manchester, Paris, Cannes and St Barth, and their rules are strict. A store will not refund or replace a piece bought on the Chrome Hearts website, and the website will not refund a piece bought in a store. Since neither takes back what the other sold, see the piece in person before you pay, and read its wear grade if it is pre owned.

Chrome Hearts has no shop of its own in Canada, so in Toronto you find it at Utopia, 132 Cumberland Street. Start with a ring. On 13 October 2026 Utopia's rings began at about $283, as low as any of its Chrome Hearts jewellery, and silver is where the label began.

For the boxers and other sized pieces, the chart is on the Chrome Hearts size page.

In Toronto, Utopia opens every day from 12:00 to 20:00. On 13 October 2026 its Chrome Hearts jewellery ran from about $283 to $14,800 and its hoodies from about $424 to $5,650. Half of the shelf cost about $1,270 or less, and some pieces were pre owned, each with the shop's wear grade.
