Chrome Shoes Launch Party | September 21, 2009

Friday was chalk full of beautiful weather downtown, a lot of bikes strolling through the city streets, a great way to kick off the launch of Chrome’s Fall shoe line. The party began around 7pm and kicked off with some live music and beer, how could you go wrong? Lots of talk about bikes and long weeks, and some were trying on shoes. Although the shoes have been on sale for a bit now, this two part celebration included all sorts of fun, one of which was the custom merchandise Chrome auction. The auction consists of Chrome messenger bags with custom designs painted on, along with hats and other apparel. You can simply sign your name and the amount you would like to bid, and keep checking back all night to make sure you’re the winning bidder. I put my luck in on a cycling hat but someone outbid me in the very end. The party wrapped up quickly when the police were called for noise complaints by the restaurant owner next door, guess he wasn’t an avid cyclist?
