Recall the post about our Downtown L.A. Fashionista on Traction near the Wurstküche?
Well, Mr. Fashionista, your velo-style inspiration has been jacked wide open. I stumbled upon his backpack through a link from the very groovy site; JJJJound.com.
As Mr. JJJJound demonstrates the highest in esthetic regard, applying the associative property of style influence [ (a•b)•c = a•(b•c)] we can conclude Mr. Fashionista has subscribed to a groove. Q.E.D.
The bags are created by Makr Carry Goods at http://makr.com.
The back pack is the Farm Ruck Sack ($160.00)
The shoulder bag is the Farm Messenger Bag ($195.00)
If you’re gonna get in some urban city riding and trade a few automobile miles for commuting miles [you know you better jack-up your annual total on two wheels for bragging rights], you gotta get geared up for the convenience and fashion of moving around town on two wheels {in style}. Also, it’s essential that you have a bag to keep the Bev-Mo goods stored for the ride home.
Makr Carry Goods offers some very distinctive items.
Personally, I love canvas but would prefer nylon to leather straps. The leather closure straps on the bags look too dangly and give the bags a sloppy appearance. Leather works well in some applications but often seems a throwback to early design ideals when applied as straps to bags for carrying stuff while on the bike. I love the size and shape of these bags but the leather ruins it for me here.
Muy Fashionista Animaux!
