We are happy to announce that the beloved snapback caps once again grace the Zlog Boutique with their presence. The hats are constructed of heavy duty canvas material and feature a two-color embroidered logo on the front and embroidery on the back. Available are two color options, black with white and silver embroidery or light gray with black and dark gray embroidery. Made with love in the USA.

If you have been working with bikes for a while you have probably found the need for a repair stand at some point. Living and working out of my very small studio apartment I couldn’t fathom owning a repair stand, until the Pro-Elite stand came along. By the name alone “Pro-Elite” sounds, well, kind of elitist and with good reason. It has the strength and clamp style of a high-end stand and also folds down for easy storage or travel. To test it’s ease-of-use I called upon my friend Amy. She had never used a bicycle repair stand before and in no time she had the stand up and running. The clamp has a patented quick release clamp that also utilizes a nob to dial in the clamp pressure. Weighing in at 12 lbs. it is fairly light for how sturdy it is. For the mechanic on the move or for doing repairs at home this is the stand to own.

Wow, great little device. This package design by Repeat Press is so gorgeous it brings a tear to my eye. I especially love the Penfield polishing cloth.
keep an eye on Union Foundry
I am so jealous that Prolly got one!
Mack is a company out of Poland that specializes in custom hubs. Each pair is made special for the customer. There is a 4 month wait, so if you need to get your hands on some you should order now.

These straps are definitely holding up like a dream. The minimalistic design is devoid of metal on the top of the strap, which makes for a much more comfortable fit than other straps I’ve tried. The strap swivels on the D ring which takes stress off of the fabric part of the strap. Adjusting on the go is simple and they are a breeze to take off and on. A great product!
One nitpicky thing that initially bothered me is the metal D ring that tinked on my crank arm. It was only while I walked with my bike and wasn’t an issue while riding, but I know there are people, like me, who cringe when they hear noises coming from their bike.
Go grab a pair for yourself. Because they are backed by the R.E. Load name you can rest assured that they are made by skilled hands and will hold umm… tight.
I’ve had my eye on the Fixed Gear London waterproof jacket for a while now. It is definitely something worth picking up for the rainy season, which is every season here in Seattle.

You might remember me mention that Mission Workshop ( @missionworkshop ) was opening their space to the public in this post, well it’s now official. Go stop by and bug the crap out of Rob, and while you are at it, you might as well try on the Vandal backpack or even some Outlier threads.
I got a little peek of one of these when I was visiting the Workshop. The top rolls so you can get into your side compartments easier. Great product as always by Mission Workshop.
“Exterior is 100% waxed Canvas; interior is 1000 Denier Nylon. The Chutney is water resistant and contains a hidden pocket on the inside for all your little stuff. Handmade here is the USA, with top grain leather Wheelmen & Co. logo. Our quality is unmatched. Limited lifetime warranty”

I got my hands on the new Lock Down straps made by R.E. Load. The construction seems really sturdy. There is one giant D-ring and a lot of velcro. Attaching them to the pedals proved far easier than Hold Fast straps. The D-ring allows for easy adjustments and there aren’t any metal pieces on top of the strap that could potentially cause blistering or discomfort to the top of the foot. They are pretty new, so I will re-post when I have broken them in and see how they wear over time.
The straps are available now at the R.E. Load web store for $47. Get em!
The guys at Mission Workshop put together this very fancy video showcasing their Vandal cargo backpack’s diverse storage capabilities. The digi-camo pattern along with the newly added side pockets are a great touch! I have one and it’s my favorite bag, I’m still discovering new ways to use it.
spotted the video first at prolly’s

America, fuck yea! I hope they make these in a 700c x 45
Their website is good in an ironic way. The intro music is quite catchy too.
Thanks Taylor for opening my eyes to greatness.
I’m proud to say Nabiis is carrying some Zlog tees in their online store for all the homies in Taiwan.

It looks like Fixed Gear London did an exceptional job with this all-weather jacket. I dig the inside pockets and taped zippers. When will these be out? I need one in black!

The zlog boutique just got a face lift. Remaining tees are $20. These shirts gotta go so I can make room for the winter gear. I mostly have large and Xlarge left and some medium white Drop Bars Not Bombs shirts. Go check out the boutique!
