Another gift I am even more stoked about is my WasteBasket II. I have been obsessing about the new Wastebasket that Trash bags have been making. Andy has really made the new fanny pack look super sick. I have been teased by friends when I show it to them on the website. The one friend who thought it would be ridiculous to own one unless you are a messenger actually got it for me. Bernardo, you are the best. He wrote "Levi's Fanny Pack" on it with sharpie, because he didn't want to pay for the custom art option. Custom art or not it is still a great present and I have been using it nonstop. Here is a little review of it.
Has a nice size compartment. Andy describe it eligible space as "It can hold like three beers", hilarious. The outside clip, which is only featured on the Wastebasket II, helps hold a ton of stuff. It has a Cordura fabric outside layer (Woven nylon and super strong).
The inside is lined with a waterproof rubber layer. Nothing will get through this thing, except a bullet.
It has an outer inside pocket to keep smaller things. I keep my knife, keys, and sometimes phone in it. The pocket has Velcro to keep it closed and makes it easy to get inside of it while riding. The big inside pocket Holds a lot and i was surprised it did. I fit my tool kit in, small bottle of Vinegar, a large bike pump (it was sticking out a little bit). I was running errands which was the cause of the weird contents.
The strap is made out of a seat belt material. Has a huge clip on it and I like it. The back of it can hold your U-lock.
It feels really nice resting on my hip. It is easy to access stuff while riding. The strap is a little big for me, but I am a skinny kid.
It just looks sweet and I recommend it for anyone who is tired of carrying there messenger bag to only hold a couple of items. I have never been a messenger before, but i would think it of it to be useful. The only problem was when it would get caught on my saddle, but I just needed to slip onto my hip more. So in conclusion, I think it is an awesome little bag to use during races, errands, or whatever.
