Handmade Randonneur Bags

Philip Woosley — Mon, 21 Mar 2011 06:05:03 +0000

Loyal Bags are handmade by Philip Woosley in Richmond, CA. Each individually crafted piece uses durable weatherproofed waxed cotton canvas and is finished with naturally tanned leather accents. The randonneur handlebar bag carries your loads for easy access, holds your maps for quick wayfinding, and adds a special flare to the bike that is truly you.

Handmade cycling bags built to last

Loyal Designs utilize a variety of materials chosen to optimize performance and extend the life of your bag. Heavy canvas not only give the bags a classic look and feel, but are the ideal material for touring gear.

Loyal Designs uses 18 and 22oz. canvas with Martexin Original Wax or heavy water resistant treatment. Heavy canvas fabric has a natural stiffness to it which resists swinging/jarring forces which a bag strapped to bicycle encounters. These forces can be magnified by the weight of the objects they contain, and degrade the handling of your bike. Heavy weight vegetable tanned leather further stiffens the structure, and finally an ABS/Delrin internal stiffener (for the handlebar bag only) along with multiple attachment points help keep your gear from telling your bike where it wants to go. Waxed canvas and leather will also age gracefully to give your bag a unique look as it rides with you through the years.

The result is a product that is rigid, breathable, and water repellant bag… it also looks great with the beautiful sculpture that is the bicycle! Loyal Designs bags come with an unconditional warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

Loyal Designs is a small bag making company based out of Richmond, CA. Phil Woosley, is the designer and craftsman behind the bags. You may reach Loyal Designs at (510) 215-1748. The address is:
