Goldwin and Westerlind have joined forces to run a New York pop-up store from November 1st until November 30th. This is the second collaboration between the two brands since 2018. The partnership is a logical one—while Goldwin combines minimalist urban design with technical alpine performance, Westerlind merges fashion and outdoor markets. Founded by Andrea Westerlind, the latter works with many well-known brands like Fjallraven, Snow Peak, New Balance, and more.
The limited-time New York pop-up store is located in Soho and the retail experience features three distinct Goldwin collections. Some highlights within the temporary store include the debut of Goldwin 0, Goldwin's collaboration with Hidden NY, four limited-production products designed by Nur Abbas, the new designer in residence, and more.
