Let’s face it – we love our gadgets. But, our semi-urban lifestyle doesn’t make it easy to carry a laptop, smartphone, mp3 player, lunch and your work around, especially when dodging taxis and pushing through the early morning crowds in the elevator banks.

For every problem there exists a solution: The Chrome Corsair.

The Corsair is light but extremely tough, with a shape that fits around your body with great ergonomics – surely the designers’ intent when developing the urban satchel. The strap is reminiscent of an airplane seatbelt, but with more cushion.

Color-wise, Chrome offers some great options. I am partial to the Olive, which is so rich and saturated I want to scoop it up with tortilla chips. Inside the flap, the interior is lined, leak-proof and not too roomy, which is a nice change from the other empty sacks on the market. Chrome understands you neither want nor need another canvas bag to tote around, so it’s streamlined the Corsair and the other bags in the arsenal to carry just what’s needed, with barely an inch to spare otherwise.

The Chrome series of bags are designed primarily for urban bicyclers who need a stylish, functional bag to keep their valuables safe and secure. Whether you are on two wheels or two heels, the Corsair is a great option for anyone.
