I was looking at their stuff, but I've fallen in love with the Mission Fitzroy. Damn them for being so expensive. But if they last as long/are as durable/as waterproof as the reviews say, it will be worth every penny.

Sale | Chrome Industries
Nothing more annoying than checking out a sale and the shoes are all size 5...

If it makes you feel better, I was told that I could have gotten a Banjo Brothers backpack for less money than the Chrome backpack I bought on sale for $99. I'm going to use my new Chrome every day just to spite him.

It seems to me like Chrome stuff varies widely in terms of quality? I have a backpack I bought in 2011 -- indestructible, love it to death. Two pairs of shoes -- eh, not bad, some wear is showing after light use for a year or so. A merino T-shirt -- hardly touched it and it's sprouted holes. The Ike shirt -- nice shirt but teeth popped off the zipper a few weeks in. Shrug.
