- In honor of Memorial Day, Chrome is launching a Custom Military Salvage Program for military personnel and their families. If they bring in their military duffles or fatigues to one of Chrome’s four HUBs: SF, NY, Chicago, or Portland, they’ll use the material to create a custom Citizen Messenger bag. The program was inspired by US Army Vehicle Commander Jared Morford of Watertown, South Dakota who reached out to Chrome to make a Custom Salvage bag with the duffle he carried to Iraq. The final product is pictured above. More pics of the process after the break.
