The Story

The Bushwick Birkin, modeled on a department-store shopping bag, made for everyone.

Origin

Inspired by a Bloomingdale's bag

Telfar Clemens debuted the Shopping Bag at his Fall/Winter 2014 runway show. The team drew on classic department-store shopping bags, even measuring a Bloomingdale's bag as a reference.

Design

Vegan leather, embossed T

The bag is made of vegan leather with an embossed T logo and designed to be unisex and carried by anyone, in three sizes that nest from small to large.

Culture

Not for you, for everyone

Nicknamed the Bushwick Birkin, the bag became a symbol of both status and accessibility. The brand's motto is not for you, for everyone, and after a 2017 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund win Clemens scaled it into the mainstream.
