In August 2010, Chrome opened its second retail store in Manhattan, New York, and has since opened retail locations in Chicago, Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis, and a second San Francisco location in the Mission District. ==Manufacturing== Chrome is best known for producing quality products designed with a set of company standards, which they outline as functionality, utility and durability. Their bags are guaranteed for life and built with industrial materials including tarpaulin, Cordura and steel. Chrome’s popular messenger bag line, Mini-Metro, Citizen and Metropolis, is chiefly recognizable by their signature seatbelt buckle release that doubles as a bottle opener. The company started building their bags in a garage with salvaged materials such as seatbelt buckles and seatbelt webbing and has maintained its straightforward aesthetic and industrial material usage across their entire range of product offerings. 90% of its bag line is still produced in the USA, mainly in their warehouse located in Chico, California. They have since expanded to incorporate an apparel line, which includes their best selling Cobra merino wool hoodie, and a shoe line including their best selling low-profile design Kursk street shoe with built-in cycling functionalities such as reflective hits, shoelace garage, skid resistant soles and polyurethane contoured crash pad insole. In 2014, Chrome began selling its city sneakers and messenger backpacks as one-off sales on Tilt.com.〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=Tilt.com )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chrome Industries」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
