dude the the bag was called the stealth pouch and I needed a bag to work with my night job as a street ninja and the black exterior is very stealthy the red interior help to hide the blood from the severed heads the three layers of cordura make it water proof or should I say blood proof

hipsack in black.

2006-10-07T17:09:00.000-05:00

lot's of people have asked me for the past two weeks to show a black hip sack. ok so here you go.
i hope you all give thanks to livingston for ordering a black one..................i can have one made and out to you in two days.

heres a little smaller bag.

2006-10-07T16:48:00.000-05:00

this is a smaller bag, i know you can't tell by the photos but the size is 19 long/ 8 wide / 13 deep. if this sounds big then you need to ride a lot more .
the size was designed by wendy for the lady's that like to spin. but i tried it on and it passed the test, lots of room and fits like a charm.

get some warm gloves and charge up your ipods.

cargo knickers.......

2006-09-25T07:47:00.000-05:00

I came to a realization the other day while i was sporting my fancy knickers that wendy made for me.. my thighs are way to big!!! So i called her to see what she could come up with to help me in my delema. she suggested shortening my army bdu's that i love so much... so i rode down to her to drop them off, while i was there she showed me a pair of double knee dickies she was working on for someone . she told me this could be an option for me if i was interested. i pondered the idea for a few days while she worked on my bdu's but when i tried out my new knickers that she made for me i was so excited i needed more.. no problem she said... would you like black or woodland camo.. so there you have it she is now doing knickers with military issue bdu's.. they are double stitched, double knee, button fly with a reinforced ass!! for those of you who have the problem of wearing the bum out.. these are a great fit.. no need to drop the waist. plenty of room in the back pocket for your mini u lock. price is $50.00 plus $5.00 for shipping.

any questions you can email her at
wendelicous@yahoo.com

We can do a vinyl bottom.

2006-09-17T14:00:00.000-05:00

we made this up to match a brooks seat and bag wrap. So why stop there how about some British tweed cordura a hard find but we can do it.
this option makes the bag very durable. All that is left is a 3 speed with fenders and a sports coat with elbow patches.

New bag strap.

2006-09-17T13:31:00.000-05:00

this is our new strap design it has taken us a few months to get this one right. The main problem we had with most messenger bags is the tail that hangs off the bag at the bottom. All bag adjustments are done at the chest. You get about 20" to lower your bag with so you can get it over your head and not have to use two hands. Hook and loop run along the strap for some added safety. The top pad runs from your rear deltoid to the bottom of your ribcage displacing all the weight and pressure. The comfort of this is new design is amazing. The top is 3.75 inches wide and it tapers down to 2.25 at you ribs. On the back end you find a 2" tri glide that is padded so no hard plastic cutting in to your hip. We designed this to encompass the body. So bag and body become one.

12" and 5" dingpad set.

2006-09-15T22:05:00.000-05:00

keep the top tube covered and get some night vision on your seatpost. Don't forget about your head tube. $14.99 each for stock 6"black. But for a few bucks more you can get some color in your life and pick your size.

We have been at the drawing board for the last month. We have been trying to come up with a hipsack like the old vision street wear or Gordon smith style. Real old school street skater/graffiti style. We are trying to get a mini u-lock holder and room for a few riddle cans in it. The other thing we are working on is adding a hydro pocket to our bag. We should have working item's soon. launching a new site 10/1/06.....

well I'm so amped to be the first to get one of these .........wendelicous just blows my mind. She took gray and black tshirts she got off of ebay from some dude in Maine. And turned them into this..... this is not a screenprinted shirt.
she uses the old skool way of spreading love.[ krylon and rusty's ] knee caps and stencil's....
then to top it off she added a pocket to the right sleeve......
your going to have to contact her for a price.. wendelicous@yahoo.com I forgot to and she's off making knickers so there's no way she's picking up the phone.

oh yah I'm working on a line of T's so keep your eyes open for those to launch in the next week or two

to answer the question about our bag.

2006-05-26T09:56:00.000-05:00

1:what is up with the side straps?

the side straps allow to tight down the bulk of your load.
say you have for pryority boxes to drop off at usps you fit your bag adjust the side strapes and swing it on and go.this way your load is balance and you know how wide you are so when you need to ride the center lane you do have to think about geting cliped.

2: just how much room is in your bag? is it to big for what i need?

BIG our bag is big we did not set out to make a bag to carry around your labtop and a pen .
we set out to make a bag that woulds allow you to work all day then pick your groserys on your way home.[some city dont have bodagas on every corner].
size of the bag is 24 long-8wide-13 tall .
as for your need well ask your self what are you luging around with you each day-weekends
or both.

3: do you only line in cotton?what other color do you guys use?

we can line a bag in about almost anything[cotton is soft to the touch but we do use silver tarp also].we have a brown bag on ebay we made up for a friend that changed there mind and wanted red yellow and green[ go dreed ]. but we lined that one with super cool fabric thats plastic on one side and soft on the other.super nice bag.
as for colors of the shell what ever you would like ask us im sure we can find a sorce for it.
we will only us 1000 denier nylon on the shell.[keeps out the scum and water]

our favorite shop in the city.

2006-05-24T19:40:00.000-05:00

what a super group of guy there.so i have a little favoritism for them.
today i got a bug up my ass that i need to have gold chainring bolts for my set of superbe track pro.

so on my way home from the shop i stopped in.talk about the little shop fell
man its like walking in to your local pub everybody know everybody.
there is no sir my i help you. its all dude whats up. i like that real lay back
felling.so i told them what i was looking for and sure enough they said we
will hunt it down for you. now thats cool.
if your in to high-end road bikes then get a grip is the shop for you.
swing by some time grab a cup of joe next-door and check them
out you will not be sorry.

Knickers.

2006-05-22T22:04:00.000-05:00

let start by saying i might never take mine off .
cool with a capital K........

our friend wendelicous is making these.if you would like a pair go to ebay and look up messenger knickers or just shoot her an email wendelicous@yahoo.com
heres what she does.
she take a pair of famous brand work pants ["D"]..you know what im talking about.
cuts the waist band off and remakes it to sit 2"inches lower front to back.
make the belt loops 2"wide to fit the biggest belt.
cuts them off how ever long you would like them[mine are cut to 20" .im 6'4" and there perfect].
she double tacks all the stress points.
the best part is she can get sizes from 30" waist all the way up 54" .
now i order mine on a monday and had them on friday.sure i stop by her place and picked them up.
she will ship world wide and if there to long you can send them back to her[you pay shipping in and out]
and she will shorten them.
as for color your choices are black - tan - brown - charcoal - army-green .she's asking $40.00 for a pair plus $ 5.00 for shipping.
we think that more then fair since there so kool and my mini lock fits right in the back pocket.
click the word knicker to get more info.i place a thing on ebay for her since she does not have the time.
wig supports all bikers. its a little thing called karma

Green skins....

2006-05-22T21:39:00.000-05:00

so here's some thing we made up out of some green ripstop cordura we picked up.the fabric is strange stuff its like rubber and tuff as nails the skin should match up to our other cityskin.i might even say its a bit beefier.if you want one email us.
chicagow@chicagowig.com

black skins.............

2006-05-21T11:25:00.000-05:00

The black skin is still our classic skin. But we are trying to

get people to look at our other colors mainly because we love to make some thing differnt from time to time.theres been a lot of talk at wig about starting to use cordura for the skin but its hard to brakeaway from the black duck we have been useing for a year now.

not only is it super tuff but when it starts to fade it gives it a look and feel all its own.

motorbike gangs we sell to or should i call them clubs have had us make 60" skins we have yet to have a pic of one in action but be sure as soon as we get one we are going to post it.

if you have any questions email us @ chicagow@chicagowig.com

Well new to wig is the ding pad.people are loven it...... its a frame pad thats only 6"long and fits your frame or seat post.
why you ask make a small frame pad? well we think that a 15 to 22"frame pad is just to much. it takes two hands to put on
ya ya most people leave them on all day as your zipping thu the city but why do you need to do so?
so to sweeten it up we put a bit of 2"hi vis tape on it. and this week
we have had our first request for a red one.they came out so cool.
we are getting new colors for our bags so check back soon for pics.
later wig one.
