The Mission Bicycle U-Lock Holster Makes Carrying a Lock Effortless

— July 11, 2013 — Lifestyle

Simply attach the Mission Bicycle U-Lock Holster to your belt and voila; a u-shaped bicycle lock can be inserted for quick carrying.

Handmade in the Mission District of San Francisco, the Mission Bicycle U-Lock Holster is made from quality leather with brass rivets for dependable strength. Four color varieties mean that pairing the design with your individual style is simple and chic.

The Mission Bicycle U-Lock Holster is an innovative approach to carrying a lock and offers flexibility that goes with the rider anywhere.
