Ahead of the launch of a permanent Los Angeles flagship store, Australian online retailer BNKR has opened a pop-up shop located in downtown LA. To last three to four months, the temporary retail space is a great way to test the waters ahead of its permanent flagship.
The stylish pop-up boasts industrial clothing racks and sparse decor, ensuring the attention is paid to the wares themselves. Adding a touch of accessibility, the pop-up shop also includes beige leather benches for the tired customer and whimsical silver letter balloons spelling out the brand's namesake. The shop carries a wide variety of cult-favorite Australian brands and labels like Keepsake and the Fifth.
In June 2015, the BNKR pop-up began selling the hotly anticipated CBKD x BNKR capsule collection.
