Chrome Industries Turns 25, adds retro range
Legendary streetwear brand Chrome Industries turns 25 this year and they’re launching a special edition Citizen messenger bag to celebrate. The Citizen enters the 2020s equipped with its iconic seatbelt buckle, trademark durability, and style.
Celebrating their roots, Chrome has given the anniversary edition Citizen some extra flair. The 25th Anniversary Citizen comes in four fabric patterns from the past.
25th Anniversary Colorways
- Old School – Original messenger colors from the 90’s, but with new bag smell.
- Glitter – Like the old school banana seats and bike frames we rode as kids.
- Checkered Flag – It’s all about taking the flag … Every day.
- Neon Splatter – Like space, when you’re spaced. If you have to ask…
The Citizen is designed from the ground up for urban mobility. Attention to detail and build quality set it apart. Every Citizen has reflective cargo straps for visibility at night, daisy chain loops for attaching lights or a lock, and a waterproof liner to keep your gear dry. The bag can fit a 17” Macbook Pro and has multiple organizer and accessory pockets. It also carries Chrome’s lifetime warranty.
Though it is older than some of those who wear it, the Citizen remains as timeless as when it was built back in ‘95.
Chrome has always been committed to making cities better in all forms, including art, mobility, photography, access to parks, trails, and DIY skate parks. Chrome sees cities as playgrounds and creative energy centers, with a diversity of people lending creativity and resourcefulness. As part of their 25th Anniversary celebration, Chrome is contributing 2% of Citizen sales to the Citizen Chrome grant program. This grant will fund artists, makers, and riders who are investing time and energy to improve their cities.
