Black Star Bags was founded by Dave Stoops in 2006. It all started with a found sewing machine and some used fabric. At the time Dave was a bike messenger and was in need of a waterproof backpack but could not find one with the desired pockets and features that a custom bag would provide. The first bags were a little rough around the edges and in need of design refinement. But now, nearly three years and several hundred bags later, Black Star Bags is producing some of the best handmade waterproof bags on the streets.
