Mission Workshop: R2 Arkiv Field Pack

I’ve seen this bag in person and it’s insane. A very clean, modern version of the military MOLLE system, done the Mission Workshop way. In this case, black waxed canvas:

“The R2 Field Packs allow for the secure and simple attachment of weatherproof accessories to the exterior of the bag. The Arkiv® modular system gives the bag freedom to evolve and adapt as needed. The R2 series is equipped with two Arkiv rails for a multitude of carry options in a minimalist design. Accessories range from simple cell phone pouches and tool pockets to larger organizers and laptop sleeves.”

Having just picked up a Hasselblad, I’m way stoked on this new video from Mission Workshop:

“For an afternoon, the San Francisco Bay Railroad opened it’s doors to Oakland based photographer Alex Ramos and Mission Workshop to capture the day to day operations of this local industrial railroad on film and video.

The photographs taken will be on exhibit in the San Francisco warehouse of Mission Workshop from August 17th until September 21st, 2012. Go to missionworkshop.com/event for information on the show and opening.

Mission Workshop: Introducing the Arkiv Modular System for Bags & Packs

The guys at Mission Workshop have been developing this particular Arkiv system for well over a year. Over the past few months, I’ve gotten to check out these bags, while in town visiting with Bart and the team, so I can say with confidence, that these made in the USA bags are legit.

“The Arkiv Modular System allows for easy customization of space and organization with the secure and simple attachment of independently weatherproof accessories utilizing unbreakable steel hardware. Accessories range from simple cell phone pouches and tool pockets to larger organizers and laptop sleeves. The Arkiv accessories allow for infinitely customizable carry solutions.”

Amazing. Check out more at Mission Workshop.

Sable & Argent

I was in Sydney for a few weeks before I finally made it down to Sable & Argent on Bourke street. I thought for sure they’d just be another fixed gear boutique. Let’s just say, I wasn’t expecting to find a facade that caters to various forms of urban cycling. As I walked through their front gate, I couldn’t help but notice how carefully curated the interiors were. Each section of the shop was merchandized wonderfully. Rapha, Campagnolo, Catlike, Mission Workshop, DZR and other brands all had shelf space, shared alongside road, cross, track and commuter bikes. You could walk in here and buy a full “kit” for whatever kind of bike you ride. The interiors were well-lit and the overall vibe just exuded cool. See for yourself by clicking the image above.
