Japanese streetwear label NEIGHBORHOOD has teamed up with L.L. Bean to launch a concise accessories collection that reimagines two of the Americana outdoor brands' most classic items, its signature tote bag, and its understated cap.
The reworked tote bag is offered in three different sizes that range in widths from 300mm to 520mm, all of which arrive in a wide range of color combinations. The bags are still made from a premium cotton canvas and come with brown, green, black, and navy color options for their straps and bottoms. Rounding out the bag's design is L.L. Bean and NEIGHBORHOOD embroidered branding.
Meanwhile, L.L. Bean's classic cap has received a subtle makeover consisting of NEIGHBHORHOOD branding on the back, and an L.L. Bean logo on the front. In addition, the caps are offered in a new range of color options including navy, khaki, beige, and black.
