POCKET Shop New York
Comme des Garçons is very pleased be launching its first freestanding US POCKET Shop on August 27th, 2015.
The POCKET shop retail concept is the first of its kind.
It evokes the modern day convenience store, whose shelves are piled high, thick with produce.
A local POCKET shop, like a grocery store, is a place for simple and affordable purchases – it consists of pocket-sized items that you don’t have to think about too much and can buy on a whim.
Every POCKET shop is designed to naturally integrate into its surroundings, and to provide everyday access to Comme des Garcons’ PLAY, Wallets and Parfum collections.
The first shops launched in Tokyo department store corners in 2007 and expanded to Paris in 2008, with a shop in the Marais district, and a POCKET PLUS shop in AU PRINTEMPS department store, where the POCKET items are mixed with the Comme des Garcons SHIRT collection.
There are now around 30 POCKET shops worldwide, mostly corners in Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, and Thailand and dedicated spaces in the Dover Street Markets of London, NY and Beijing, and the Comme des Garcons stores in Paris, Manila and Chelsea NY, but also including freestanding POCKET shops in Singapore, Berlin, Amsterdam, Paris and Melbourne.
