Po Campo
Industrial designer Maria Boustead could never find an ideal way of carrying things on her bike, so she decided to create Po Campo, her own accessory line: “I was looking for a versatile bag that could attach to my bike but still be carried around throughout the day as a normal bag.” Po Campo’s bestsellers—named after popular Chicago spots—feature nifty details such as a bottom shoe compartment and front elastic straps, as seen in the Midway Weekender. The Six Corners Handlebar Bag and Logan Trunk Bag both detach from the bicycle to become a crossbody bag—all weatherproof. Prices range from $40 to $100 and products are available online at pocampo.com, on Amazon, and through select retailers nationwide.
