Krieg started sewing chalkbags out of the trunk of the car in Miguel's
parking lot at the Red River Gorge. Slowly the friends made out climbing
helped find homes for the bags in local outdoor stores and climbing gyms
throughout the country. While Krieg has outgrown the car, with a few close
friends Krieg still makes their bags in their small sewing shop in the
southeast.
Krieg knows everyone uses their chalkbag differently. For some, it's the
first place you reach when you're sketching far above your last piece. For
others, a dip into the chalkbag is routine before leaving the ground on a
cool new problem. From hemp to hot pink sequin, Krieg makes chalk bags for
all occasions. They have made chalkbags from $1000 purses, stuffed animals,
and underwear. They will sew just about anything if you have the cash to pay
for it.
