About this location
This is the only SPANX at LAX, a single rack of shapewear and hosiery set among the electronics of InMotion, the financial-news gifts of CNBC Smartshop and the nearby duty-free counter in Terminal 2's Gates 21-28 stretch. Open from 5am to 10pm, it covers the terminal's full departure day without the extended overnight hours some Bradley West shops keep. Compared with its neighbors, the stock is narrow by design: camisoles, leggings, slips and the waist-slimming shorts the brand built its name on, with no menswear or accessories aisle to browse while waiting.
Other options in Terminal 2
All past the same checkpoint, so you can reach them without clearing security again.
