Lands’ End has introduced the 'Crosby Street Market,' a personalization concept pop-up in New York City, designed to offer shoppers the opportunity to create a uniquely customized version of the brand’s iconic 'Canvas Pocket Tote.' This exclusive experience is available just in time for the holiday season, blending creativity with functionality.
The pop-up features a variety of personalization options, including "on-site embroidery by Chain Smoke and hand-painted calligraphy by P.S. Calligraphy." Additionally, customers can choose from a curated selection of vintage patches, ribbons, pins, and other embellishments to further customize their tote. For a limited time, the pop-up will also host exclusive activations, such as "a one-day-only opportunity on November 16 to design a custom bag charm with By W, a sought-after accessory for the season."
Moreover, shoppers can explore the Canvas Pocket Tote in over 20 colorways in medium and large sizes with customizable options such as handle lengths and zip-top or open-top designs.
