Chrome Industries has phenomenal bag products. Hands down. From the materials used, their durability, and ergonomics, all that is top notch. Until I got this bag, I normally would say that aesthetically, their products are the same exceptional level. I currently own 9 of their bags, so including backpacks, messenger bags, slings, and bike bags.

Then I got the Future White kadet max bag. It’s just not white, more of a dirty off-white… like almost taupe… which is weird. It’s also obviously intentional because the stitching and awesome webbing straps all match the color tone.

Maybe I’m petty? I dunno. The bag is pretty expensive and I just would have expected more of a brilliant or bright tone based on the name of the color and the marketing images viewed on my PC & mobile devices.
