    It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

    Unfortunately, what dutch I understand says they can't get enough of the material (used plastic billboards (facade ads?)) to go into serial production at the moment. guess you will have to wait for these.

    Wow! I was starting to give up on finding something that wasn't so "utilitarian". I want the panniers for commuting to work and would be taking them on and off twice a day.. I also have several stairs to walk up at the end of the day so something that has back-pack straps would also be nice. Though.. I'm almost willing to give that up in the name of fashion! haha

    I love the ones from the Netherlands but will have to research further to see if I can translate or find someone that speaks English. That or the basil bags look promising.
    Thanks again for all the help.. and if you come across any other pretty panniers.. be sure to send the link my way! Thanks!

    Magnus Backstedt speaks excellent English.

    I am eying the pink panniers basil makes for my soon to be purchased commuter! They really aren't that expensive either.
