Todd Snyder and Lagavulin Launch Scotland-Inspired Time & Craft Collection
Todd Snyder, a menswear designer based in New York, has teamed up with Lagavulin to create Time & Craft, a special limited-edition line inspired by Islay, Scotland. After establishing his brand 15 years ago following stints at Ralph Lauren, The Gap, and J.Crew, Snyder has previously collaborated with names like D.S. & Durga and Timex. This collection features outerwear, knitwear, and accessories that capture the essence of Islay's colors and textures. A standout item is the Italian suede Stable Jacket, which showcases Lagavulin's Islay Tartan, registered in 2025, along with a wool Chore Coat adorned with the same pattern. Snyder acknowledges Frank Muytjens for introducing him to Scotch, particularly his fondness for Lagavulin 16-Year-Old, and highlights how travel shapes his design approach.
