This is BOgear's first official bag, still getting good daily use and currently on the other side of the world.

There we have it... the LAST EVER BOgear bag to be sewn in our Studio. ๐ข
Kind of fitting too, as this BullPup is heading to , who placed the first official bag order with us back in 2008. He now holds the "start" and "end" of Custom, Australian Made BOgear. Thank you Dan for believing in us, and supporting us the whole way through our journey.
Continuing with the historical theme, this BullPup is even made from the same Tan Canvas that the first ever bag was made from. Heck of a lot cleaner though, but basically ready to now be Dirtified!

Gulp!
And we are done... this is our custom order sheet clipboard, and for the first time ever it is completely empty. Mixed emotions to be seeing this empty.
Tomorrow I'll share the last ever bag to cross our machines - and it does represent a bit of BOgear history...
Thank you to everyone for all your support and orders! Humbled, especially due to the volume and outpouring of love!

First AND last right here.
This is our first ever batch of FRS Straps being 100% WTF'd as all heck!
And this is our LAST ever batch of FRS Straps, heading over to ! Keep an eye out Melbourne peeps, as you WILL see these on Cargone's Cargo bikes!
BOgear History: We came up with our FRS Straps during the FGFS (Fixed Gear Freestyle) "craze" - 2008/2009 from memory. At the time there were only three versions on the market; Hold Fast Straps, JOL Straps, and ours. Lots of other companies/brands went on to copy the Hold Fast and JOL Strap versions, but thankfully not ours! This single product is what really got BOgear cranking. In its heyday we were selling 30 - 50 a week and couldn't keep up manufacturing wise. The FRS Straps (along with a contract manufacturing client at the time) allowed us to buy our Automated Webbing Cutter and our Bartack Machine, and helped catapult us forward!
THANK YOU to everyone that owns, or have owned a pair of our FRS Straps. You helped get BOgear really cranking!

I know this was in the last BullPup batch, but it had to be pulled out and featured on its own, especially after a lot of people commented on it. SUUUUUPER FINE! Finally we used up the last of our Black Wax Canvas scrap and Royal Blue scrap in one beautiful beast of a bag!

These are the three Spare Camels I pulled from yesterdays photo batch. They absolutely deserved their own photo! And in true form, I just want to jump in and say "WHAT BAGS?" before someone drops the line below. ๐
RealTree Camo... I was against this camo for a long time, but I must say I am very pleasantly surprised with the end result! Big bag of win!

WEEK OF LASTS:
Technically this is our last batch of Spare Camels, but I pulled three out to show on their own... Sad to say goodbye to this piece of BOgear history. This and the smaller BullPup pack were by far our most popular bags...

This photography bench has certainly been getting a work out the last month or two... Thank you to everyone for all your orders!
We know we've been behind schedule on some of the packs, so THANK YOU for your patience as we punch them out!
Only 2-ish batches to go...
