A crew of burglars raided the Balenciaga flagship store on the Upper East Side early Tuesday — less than a month after thieves took off with $60,000 worth of bags from the luxury shop’s SoHo location, according to police. 

About eight or nine men smashed the glass door of the luxury fashion store on Madison Avenue near East 59th Street around 3:30 a.m., cops said. 

Police could not confirm by Tuesday afternoon what was taken, or the exact value of the items.
