"So the question everyone has been asking since is: what does the second act look like? The answer is the Trolley Bag, and it's exactly what it sounds like. Fabricated from industrial stainless steel, the bag is a miniaturized, wearable version of the Lidl shopping trolley. It keeps the cart's recognizable grid structure, the tubular handlebar finished in Lidl's signature yellow and blue, and even comes with a trolley coin keychain fob that actually works on real Lidl shopping carts in store."
"Nik Bentel is a New York-based designer who has built a career turning completely ordinary objects into pieces that live somewhere between fashion, sculpture, and a really good joke you can carry. His portfolio includes pasta boxes reimagined as bags, a lopsided coffee mug, and a steel musical ball. So when Lidl, the German budget supermarket chain, came calling for a second collaboration, it was never going to be boring."
Nik Bentel partnered with Lidl to produce a wearable, miniaturized shopping trolley bag fabricated from industrial stainless steel. The bag preserves the cart's grid structure and a tubular handlebar finished in Lidl's yellow and blue. The accessory includes a working trolley coin keychain fob compatible with real Lidl shopping carts, a detachable chain strap for shoulder wear, a dust bag, and a gift box. Bentel selects everyday objects for reinterpretation by focusing on instantly recognizable features like the metal grid, wheels, and child seat. A prior Bentel x Lidl Croissant Bag sold out in two minutes, demonstrating strong demand.
