Important update from North St Bags
If you ordered a bag from us at the Renegade Craft Show in SF this past weekend, PLEASE CONTACT US!
My bag was stolen after the show, which included all of the written orders that we took during the show. That means we have no way of contacting you to confirm or fill your order!
Please call us at 503-419-6230, or email at [curtis@northstbags.com] ASAP to confirm your order (and remind us what it was!)
I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, and thank you for your understanding.

It's 2012!
The past several months have seen many changes for North St. We've moved into a brand new location on SE 23rd and Clinton. It's in a beautiful, light-filled industrial space called Patternworks Studios. It's across from local bag mainstay Beckel Canvas, and mere steps from A Better Cycle on Division. We've got more machines, an incredibly talented new seamstress, and some big plans for the future.
First and foremost, our friends at Bike Craft are working on a new website where you will be able to get all the handmade goodness 24/7.
I'll be set up at Trillium Artisans on Thursday 2/23 from 10:30 to 5:30. They were offered the chance to keep their pop-up shop location on SW Taylor and 3rd, and have just reopened! Stop by for local goods made from salvaged materials.
There's plenty more in the works, but in the meantime, we've got a lot of old stock bags left over from the holidays. Come on by for some great discounts - everything from hip pouches to convertibles.
We're open 11 to 6 Tues, Wed and Fri, and 11-4 on Sat (closed Sun & Mon)
cheers!
Curtis
Holiday Break
There are only 3 spots left in the queue before the holiday break, so now's your chance! We'll be closed from Dec 19th thru Jan 8th. I'll be heading back to VT for the holidays, then catching up on some random projects around the studio before starting up production in the new year.
Get your order in now, the spots are going fast! Not to worry though, there will be three more chances to get a North St. deal!
Our first ever Holiday Trunk Show - Tues, Nov 29th at the Trillium Artisans Pop-Up Shop 11am to 7pm
Bike Craft is on in full force this year - Dec 3rd and 4th at Sandbox Studio 11am to 6pm
and Crafty Wonderland is bigger than ever at the Convention Center Dec 10th and 11th - 11am to 6pm
Hope to see you at one or all of these wonderful handmade shopping events!
