Who said only the riders could get to enjoy this bag.

This bag got me with the number of pockets it has. The snap hooks are in stainless steel. This bag is definitely on my wishlist.
I have a thing for waterproof, water-repellent, durable, and customizable bags— these are some of the qualities the pieces I’ve mentioned no-fuss bags. Also, bags personalized with your name or initials make your bag stand out and easier to find.
A no-fuss bag is what you need during summer when all you want is to relax, chill, and get your perfect tan.
