"I wasn't sure how far I would take it or where it would lead. I stayed focused on solving the next problem and making a better product. That's still our challenge today."
-Curtis Williams, North St. Bags Owner & Designer
1. Have a Good Time!
We want you to have a good time! Our favorite part of our day is seeing and hearing your stories about where you take your North St. gear.
We’ve gotten pictures of our gear all over the world - from Japan to the Alps and everywhere in between. It’s amazing to see these bags doing what they’re built for - keeping you company out there and supporting some really jealousy inducing adventures!

3. Be Good to The Earth
4. Own Better Things
5. Life is an Experiment
He started experimenting with patterns, taught himself to sew, and put together the first Woodward convertible backpack pannier.
To this day over 10 years later, we still approach each day as an experiment. The gear that you put on your bike and your back every day is the result of months, sometimes years of testing and development.
