M.R.K.T. has released a new artistic project in consultation with the New York Times. The project consists of a 5-piece capsule collection and photo series by award winning photojournalist Stephen Yang. The collection includes modern accessories all inspired by and named after – iconic New York neighborhoods. The Manhattan Briefcase is ideal for the young professional climbing the corporate ladder in Midtown and the Financial District, with a refined silhouette and streamlined utility. The Williamsburg Messenger is a commuter-friendly bag, easily slung over the shoulder for a bike ride across the Brooklyn Bridge. The collection also includes the dapper Greenwich Briefcase, sporty Brooklyn Backpack and the minimalist SoHo Folio. The corresponding color palettes mimic the cool, understated tones of the concrete jungle, drawing inspiration from pavement, buildings, and urban structures.

The M.R.K.T. x New York Times collection is now available at www.mrktstore.com and in the Times Exclusive category of the New York Times store and is priced from $75 – $155.
