About Chrome Over two decades ago we made our first Chrome bag with a Juki sewing machine, a few yards of industrial-grade nylon, military grade truck tarpaulin, and the commitment to making durable useful gear that works on and off the bike. We didn’t have money to make a buckle that could hold the weight of a loaded messenger bag, so we salvaged seatbelt buckles out of junkyard cars. An icon was born. Our original messenger bag with its seatbelt buckle quickly became a favorite of professional messengers around the world. More importantly, our way of making things was defined. We call it Freedom through limitations. Specs Size: 13" H | 22" W | 7" D Volume: 24 L Weight: 2.8 lbs | 1.27 kg Laptop Size: up to 17" Citizen Messenger Bag Original. Iconic.
