It was just too good to resist another 55DSL x MANHATTAN PORTAGE collaboration this season, so here we go with round two. The new bag is the result of a marriage between 55DSL’s creativity and the iconic New York brand’s history. Together they stayed true to their origins and looked forward to the future. It’s slick Italian style with cool New Yorker edge.

This limited edition collaboration will only have 1,500 pieces available world-wide, and brings together 55DSL’s Italian inspired design with Manhattan Portage’s urban roots and durability. The New York brand will customize one of their iconic Vintage Messenger model for inclusion in 55DSL’s latest collection. This will tie in with the streetwear label’s Caribbean theme for S/S12 and will be embellished with a decorative sun-bleached stripe. This collaborative bag was designed with the international urbanite and limitless globetrotter in mind.

We decided on this dreary day to make our store a little more lively. In comes DJ Cks. Luckily we were able to get him and he rocked it for us till we closed. Here are some pics!

Come see him next time October 16th. Come by and show some support or just check out some out of new items coming soon.

For those of you who have recently placed orders on our website, you might have noticed that your items are now coming in a little red bag. Yes all orders that were placed starting Mid August have all been sent in our reusable shopping bag.

Use this for going grocery shopping at Whole Foods to save a few cents. Use it to bring a gift over to a friends place. Use it to bring your clothes to the laundromat. Use it on a nice day out in the park. Basically it can be used anywhere and we hope you enjoy this bag as much as you do our regular bags. Thank you for shopping at Manhattan Portage.com!
