Today In Enlargement: Jack Spade's Giant Tote
July 14, 2009
The folks at Jack Spade seem to have wound down their bike shop for the season, and the latest attraction at the Bleecker Street store appears to be supersized accessories —really supersized.
Yes, possibly inspired by pop artists Claes Oldenburg and Coosje Van Bruggen, that's a giant canvas tote bag in front of the store, stuffed, perhaps in absence of a bit more structure, with a whole lot of tissue paper.
The Spade staff seems, at least, to know what its customers put in their totes. A closer look reveals a giant pair of iPod headphones.
Dumbo's perhaps?

They have one of these in front of the Greene St. store as well.
