They're good bags, mostly sold only here in TO, prolly don't see too many around down there...yet another reason to snag one. They're hand made since 1995 by a local ex-messer here, also will customize it for you for a tad more.

I use a crome bag, they have a web-site www.chromebags.com but the store is here in sf. It's way comfortable and doesn't slip around.

I got my chrome backbone today. I was using a civillian for a while but a second job, meant carrying more stuff. Holds just about as much as my old kremlin. Super comfy and the grey with red looks dope. Plus both straps have the velcro so i can hold my phone and my ipod without being crowded. and of course...

...The stash pocket!!

Hey man - how do you like the bag and how much did it cost? Had a look at their website - lots of flash but couldn't find the prices. Could be me cos I can't seem to use a computer today

Cheers

got my new reload yesterday, and i love it. so much better than any other bag i've had. nice to support a small business run by folks who give a damn, too. way to go ellie.

does anybody want to buy my old manhatten portage bag, model # 1611 in light blue? i don't have a digital camera to show pix, but its the same as this one[http://www.manhattanportage.com/cata...roducts_id=92]

its 2 years old and pretty beat up, but only cosmetically. how does $25 sound? pm me. thanks

Sorry to resurrect this thread again, but my under the weather bag finally got here (gd US customs) and I'm SOOOOOOO happy!

It's huge- actually a little hard for someone my size to wear when it's still stiff and new, but it will wear in fine and feel great once I've put a few miles on it, I'm sure.

Super special ultra thanks to Sam et al, who custom stitched this for me with reflective bee wings AND even put in the strap a vintage 1978 Crown Victoria seat belt buckle.

Boo-yeah!

Nice bag! That reminds me - I got a bag from Sam a couple of months ago and meant to post pics but totally forgot. I'll take some photos as soon as I get access to a digital camera.

Mine isn't as flash as yours - in fact I got him to make it as black as possible and he even found black reflective patches...... He is a top guy to deal with.

I dig the seatbelt too - nice touch.

bagjack website doesn't show the prices. they're about as pricy as you would expect a super tough, handmade with love, built to take anything you can throw at it bag to be. and fully worth the cost. in n. america it's a bit difficult to come by their stuff, as there are no dealers here, etc... last summer i went to their factory/showroom in berlin and had them make me a bag. they are working on an online shop i believe, but the other option is just to ring them up and ask about pricing/options. most of the people there speak english i think, otherwise learn german :)

That's a nice bag - I like the concept and the reflective wings. We need a "what's in your messenger bag photo" thread. Maybe.

*giggling* best I've done so far is two weeks worth of groceries. Or 5 cases of beer. Though the latter really hurt. alot.

Easy enough with Flickr

ok, so is this a photo of what's in your bag, or a description of what's in your bag photo? my head hurts.

Both. See Flickr group

I just got a new pac street scene in the mail and the thing is way to big for me. its super nice otherwise and right swing. pm me if interested. oh, its forest green.
