Chrome

Almost two decades ago the first chrome bag was made with a juki sewing machine, a few yards of Cordura®, military grade truck tarpaulin, and the commitment to make street tested gear that works on and off the bike. From the beginning, the drive for simple, useful, and resourceful solutions led Chrome to make its original messenger bag with a salvaged seatbelt buckle. With innovations like the iconic quick release buckle, load stabilizing strap, dual wall construction and five bar webbing, the Chrome messenger bag became the bag of choice for working bike messengers around the world.

Over the last 20 years Chrome has never wavered from its commitment to making useful and durable gear for professional messengers, fixed freestyle riders, and urban commuters: people who live and ride in the city. Chrome makes street tested bags, footwear, and apparel that adapt to the changing and unpredictable nature of the city. Chrome is urban mobility. They make simple, functional gear built with industrial-strength materials and features that work on the bike and in the bar. They make gear that protects people and their things from the elements without looking like you came from the mountains. Made for living the city.
