Just look for it. It's not a secret pocket if we keep talking about it.

Sorry, they're coming. I printed 10 labels yesterday, but didn't actually make it to the post office. My sweet and infinitely patient wife is going to try and drop them off today, or I'll send em when I get home. The trouble I keep having is that I fill up the night drop box since I'm mailing so many of these things. If you paid by the 16th, your bags should go out by tonight. I'll try and get to the rest by Saturday. I have something like 25 bags to mail.

I still don't see how this happened given they way they're constructed. Maybe it was somebodys first day. I'm going to go through the pile-o-bags in my living room and see if there are any more like that.

edit: There were just a few threads that went all the way through, so after I cut them my stash pocket works fine.

Wait, so the bag you have that is missing a stash pocket is not one of mine?

Way to spoil it. For random reference, only the two largest sizes of Chrome bags (Kremlin and Metropolis, which are both incredibly massive) have a stash pocket. Unless they started adding them to smaller bags recently.
That little hook of strap at the bottom of the bag, which someone mentioned as a blinkie mount, can also be used as a U-Lock carrier. You need to unlock your lock and thread the U through the strap, then close it (which kinda sucks for messengers, I guess), lay it against the front of the bag, and close the flap, making sure to press on the velcro. Works great, except it flops down every time you open the bag. Nonetheless, if you need extra room or don't want your lock scratching up your Pabst (or whatever), it's a good solution.

I just checked all my bags both large and small and they all have stash pockets and none are sewn up. Please let me know if one of you ended up with a sewn up pocket and we'll figure something out.

UPDATE:
I just picked up 20 of each size, so I'm all stocked up for a while!
All bags paid for on or before the 23rd have shipped. Craziness at work has slowed down a bit so I should be getting these out a little quicker from now on!

Hey guys, don't keep loosening the strap to make it easier when you're trying to take stuff out of your bag. My strap has already started fraying on the surface I think because I've been loosening and tightening it so much. I think I'm going to switch out the webbing and the hardware soon...
