Handmade in the USA, the US02S Universal Solo Bag is the compact, daily-driver version of our heavyweight US01. Sold as a **Single Solo Bag**, it offers a streamlined profile (14" W x 15" T x 6" D) perfect for riders who need rugged storage on just one side without the bulk of a full touring setup.
Just like its big brother, we construct the US02S from our thickest 10-12oz Vegetable Tanned Steerhide (approx. 6mm thick)—significantly heavier than standard saddlebags. The structure is reinforced with 1/8" PVC Panels to ensure it never sags, even when empty or wet. Finished with Stainless Steel Roller Buckles, it offers a classic, bombproof storage solution for any cruiser, from Harley Sportsters and Dynas to custom bobbers.
The Origin Story:
This bag wasn't on our roadmap. It was born from a phone call with a customer restoring a '98 Fat Boy who needed a custom solo solution. Read the full story of how we designed, built, and shipped this new product in less than a week.
💡 Custom Upgrades: Check the "Custom Upgrades" section below to Upgrade the Leather or Buckles, add Quick Release Clips, or Custom Stitching to your build.

1 Solo Saddlebag. *Mounting brackets sold separately.
Fitment note:

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS:
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS:ORDERING & SHIPPING
How long does it take to get my order?
Since every item is handmade in our Richmond, VA shop, we don't just pull boxes off a shelf. Most orders ship within 1-3 business days. Custom orders or elaborate tooling may take longer. You will receive a tracking number the moment your label is created.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes! We ship worldwide. We have sent bags to riders in Europe, Australia, Asia, and beyond. Please note that international customers are responsible for any customs duties or import taxes.
FITMENT & INSTALLATION
Will these bags fit my specific bike?
We make both model-specific and universal bags.
- If you see your bike listed in our menu (e.g., "Dyna Saddlebags"), those are designed to fit your specific fender struts and shocks.
- If you have a custom chopper or a bike we don't list, check out our Universal Collection or Contact Us with a photo of your bike.
Do I need to relocate my turn signals?
For most Dyna and Sportster models, our bags are designed to work without relocating turn signals, as long as you are running the stock setup. However, if you have a side-mount license plate or aftermarket indicators, please check the measurements on the product page.
WARRANTY & CARE
What is your warranty?
We offer a Lifetime Warranty on craftsmanship. If a stitch pops or hardware fails due to a defect, we will fix it. We build these to last a lifetime. (See our Warranty Page for full details).
How do I care for the leather?
We use premium vegetable-tanned leather. Like a good pair of boots, it needs to be conditioned occasionally. We recommend using a high-quality leather balm or oil once every few months, or after getting caught in heavy rain.
