  I have wanted a Vaya bag for a very long time. Having seen their products at the Renegade Craft Fair in Chicago several times, I finally decided I was going to order one. I am an avid biker so I decided to try the pannier style bag, but because I am an idiot, I didn't think of the size and what I needed the bag to do for me. I received the pannier and it was really nice, well made, durable, etc. It was also not the size bag I needed and reached out to Tia at Vaya bags to return it. It was no problem, sent it back and ordered the wide messenger bag in Stormy Blue and a strap pad to go along with it. Awesome, I am super pumped. Tia is making it for me and it will be on the way soon enough! It gets shipped and I had it sent to my wife's store because UPS is good about bringing in packages during store hours and holding onto them when we are closed. Except this time... The package was "delivered" and promptly stolen when the temporary driver decided it was a good idea to put the box on the sidewalk of a busy street in Chicago. Sure, that is going to stay put until we open the next day! The package was stolen and a claim process ensued. It was a nightmare and took forever, but throughout the whole process Tia was communicative and kept a positive outlook assuring me that a new bag was on the horizon. UPS finally paid the claim and Tia got right to work on a new bag for me. Fast forward to yesterday when it finally arrived in all its glory! These bags, having seen many over the years, are unbelievably well made. I can not wait to see how my new bag holds up over the years. I highly recommend Vaya to any avid cyclist, commuter, or human who needs to carry things anywhere. They have an amazing selection of bag types, great colors, and with custom options the sky is really the limit with their products! Thank you for everything, Vaya bags is the real deal.

  Rad store. Very nice employees. I went in there looking for a water resistant phone ouch for my messenger backpack. The only ones they sell has the strap going vertical which doesn't allow you to mount it vertical on a sling messenger bag or backpack strap. Not sure how an established store didn't think of this so I had to pass. They wanted $20 for recycled innertube wallet which they get the tubes for free from bike shops. Maybe I would have paid $14, $10 yes, but $20? No way! The color of al their bags mismatch and don't go well together. I guess the designer didn't go to art school or have common sense of what colors look good with what but luckily they make custom colors as well.
