"Kapow Moto" Biker Bag


Some of our friends in Australia who ride motorcycles asked us if we had any shoulder bags that would be suitable for carrying their gear while riding. The only bag I could think of was the "Koh Samui" Beach Bag, but it did not quite suit their needs. I believe the reason for this was the bright colors the "Samui" comes in, like the pinks and light blues, but they assured me it was because the "Samui" has a coconut wood button closer, and they prefer a zip closer. So we went to see our friends at the weaving village, and ordered some black cotton, (these guys like any color, as long as it is black!) and when I was in Chiang Mai last, I picked up some heavy duty zippers. The result is the "Kapow Moto" Shoulder Bag. "Kapow" is Thai for "bag", hence the name. We produce these bags in the same manner as everything else we display on our website, using naturally colored, handwoven cotton fabric, and handcrafting each individual item. Some bags may look similar to others, but we can assure you no 2 bags are alike. Inside of bag is lined with machine made cotton fabric.

Dimensions: Overall Length - 33" Width - 10" Depth - 6"
