Update!


Hey Everyone! I've been getting a lot of e-mails from people waiting on more messenger bags. Sorry for the wait, I've had a few 90% complete, and had to wait a bit longer than expected on a shipment of buckles, so I could wrap on them. I've thrown a few Purple Bags on the site.

 I'm also stocked on some great new colorways, that I will be constructing over the next two weeks, and will be releasing at the beginning of May. Yes Black on Black will be back in stock shortly, as well as some other great color. For those of you waiting on the Medic Series, you've only got 2 more weeks to go! Be sure to jump on them, because the first round sold quick!


And don't forget, 10% of all sales from this month, will be donated to the Ride For The Feast benefit, so get on it, and help to put some $$$ towards a great cause!

Quick Update

Hi everyone! I hope all of you are enjoying this great spring weather we've been having. So I've uploaded 1 Large Purple Messenger bag to the site that is ready to ship, and have 3 more purple Messengers in Small and Med, that are 90% complete, and coming in the next day or so. Unfortunately I ran through my stock of buckles WAY faster than anticipated, and am waiting on a shipment scheduled to be here in the next day or so.

Otherwise, if you're looking for some Messenger bags, the great folks over at Transit Bikes in Dallas, can't seem to keep them on the shelf! They just placed an order to re-stock their supply of small & med bags ranging in colors. So if you can't wait, shoot them a call and scoop one up. They take orders over the phone, so have no fear if you aren't local to the Dallas area.

Keep an eye out in the coming weeks, as I'm stocked back up on a great color range of Cordura, and will be working feverishly to whip them up into bags, to list on the site! And don't forget to check out the expansive stock in hip & cell pouches! Everything you see on the site is complete, and will ship to you within 48-72hrs (72 if you order on a friday night) of your order!

And don't forget, 10% of all orders this month, will be going towards helping out Team Bikeage, participating in a 140mi Ride for the Feast (see previous post), benefit ride! Thanks everyone, for all the support, check back soon for more updates!

Moveable Feast Benefit. 10% of all retail sales through April are being donated!


So right around this time last year, a good friend of mine (and great tattoo artist) Matt Taylor, told me about this benefit ride that he was doing with a few of his friends. The ride is 140mi from Ocean City to Baltimore MD, over the course of 2 days. This is the "Ride for the Feast" benefit, for a charity called Moveable Feast. Now that Transient Bags is back in full swing, I've decided to chip in this year. Here's a good shot of all the riders that participated last year.

Moveable Feast is a great Baltimore-based charity helping to provide meals to low income HIV/AIDS patients as well as others with life threatening conditions.

Transient Bag Co will be donating 10% of all retail sales through the month of April towards their cause. Meaning, when you pick up anything from our web-store, you'll be chipping in as well! Their team name is "Team Bikeage". Here's a great photo of Team riders Sherry and Steve!

If you're a Descendents dork like me, you should appreciate the nod towards a great band. They made some awesome t-shirts last year to help benefit the ride, and have some left over.

After talking with team member/organizer Sherry, she has informed me that there are still some shirts left over in various sizes from last year, and they are still available! So even if you aren't in need of a bag from us, shoot her an email (sherrydawn@gmail.com),and for a donation of $10+ toward the team, she'll hook you up!

It's been quite a busy week!

After a week of stenciling, cutting, and stitching, I've wrapped on a nice little batch of pouches to help beef up the stock in the web-store! Head on over to check out the new inventory, and keep your eyes peeled next week for some more messenger bags!
