FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Where Are You Located?
Every last bag is handkrafed in beautiful Silver City, New Mexico near the Continental Divide Trail.
Are Your Bags Waterproof?
All of our bags are made with waterproof materials including the
zippers. The bags are very water resistant, but by definition to claim
"waterproof" the item must be submerged for minutes. I had toured and
ridden with my bags thru monsoons and mild rain with my stuff remaining
dry inside, so a dry bag is recommended in heavy rain.
How Long Does It Take To Receive My Order?
We are a ONE man Two dog operation and work part time managing a bike
shop, i don't like to sit still so we pride ourselves on having KUSTOM
orders done and shipped within 1-2 weeks unless its a stocked inventory
item. Standard single color items and Signiature Designs are typically
in stock items.
Do You Ship Internationally?
Yes, we now ship to 27 countries around the realm!
Materials
-
Cordura 1000D PU Lined
Learn MoreCordura is our favorite choice of material for the people that care more about durability and longevity over weight. Cordura offers a wide variety of colors for those looking for something specific or fun!
Why Cordura? Besides being manufactured
in the USA, it has a water resistant exterior coating called DWR and
a polyurethane internal coating with a classification of waterproof which makes it GREAT for outdoor gear! -
VX21 X-Pac
Learn MoreX-Pac is material that is laminated with a solid waterproof membrane that has the
diamond pattern. The face material is a also a
nylon packcloth in 210D that has an additional water resistant
coating. X-Pac is a way lighter material, but not as abrasive resistant as Cordura. We don't stock as many colors in X-Pac due to the higher material cost and not as high as a demand. None the less, it's a material we enjoy to work with and like to have an option for those that are weight conscious.
X-Pac materials are manufactured in the USA by a company named Dimension Polyant. -
400D High Density Coated Packcloth Nylon
400D Packcloth coated nylon fabric is the "elephant hide" of the outdoor fabrics. Created from 400 Denier nylon yarns, this High Density
fabric is as tough as leather or vinyl, or any other fabrics on the
market and yet is still light weight like X-Pac.This fabric is permanently sealed
with a finish offering superior water repellent properties called DWR which make this our favorite choice for Liner material for all our bags.
