Annah worked with my on some of the eariest versions of the current messenger bag. She actually made one of her own on the old tredle sewing machine that I had before buying the big industrial machine that I now use. A few months ago she came for a visit and we spent the day picking out and cutting fabric for this bag. Well, it's finally done, and it looks great. The flap is overlayed with a piece of Moda vinyle showing an Atlanta building and a set of lungs, symbolizing the living city. The bag itself features double 3d pockets, double compression straps with metal lower buckles, side pockets, and an X strap for stablizing huge loads. Annah lives in Philadelphia these days and I'm happy to have one of my bags gracing that city's streets.
Patrick really wanted to be seen on his bike, and I think that he might be liable to cause accidents by blinding the drivers with this daring bag. Just yellow and black could be a little bit bumble bee, but with the pink, I think it's hot. Enjoy.
We like to give her shit about the anarchist color choice, but truth is red and black go together. I wore a bag that looked just like this for at least a year, and I like the look. I'm sure I'll get some more picts of her wearing it later.
