  
Hemp is harder to get and therefore costs more than nylon. SO WHY HEMP?
Hemp is an incredible renewable natural resource. If allowed to be harvested in the US, it will be cheaper to grow than cotton. And produce more paper more cheaply than trees. Higher quality, too. Most bike bags are made of Cordura nylon, which is made from petroleum, a totally finite resource that is running out fast. So using hemp helps to conserve petroleum. Hemp can also be turned into automobile fuel, but let's just stop here. Most of our bags feature silent zippers, waterproof linings, reflective stripes, and a well engineered rear LED attachment loop that does not allow the flasher to droop like on other bags.
