How Should I Wash My Bag?

Soap and water can go a long way for spot treating.

We recommend using powdered Tide laundry detergent and warm water; scrub lightly as needed. Try to avoid the washing machine, as products can become snagged and potentially cause damage. Always let air dry. We recommend avoiding the dryer as some materials will deteriorate with high temperatures.

If you are looking for a deeper clean, consider dry cleaning.

What’s the difference between water-resistant and waterproof?

The density of the nylon/poly fabric that we use and pack cloth lining means that most of our bags are weatherproof and will keep your gear dry for everyday purposes — pretty much anything except for activities like kayaking or scuba diving where you'll need a true dry bag.

Some of our products have additional water-resistance thanks to special features like coated zipper backing. Check out any of our bags made with X-Pac (it's the material sails are made out of). They can handle just about anything short of full submersion. We like to think of them as “downpour-proof”.

Why Custom?

Work with one of our sewing experts to create a bag or product that meets your exact needs—Get everything you want and nothing you don’t. We will work closely with you to get everything just right and guarantee the perfect fit. With our custom products, the sky’s the limit! Nothing beats custom.

Shipping


Where is “Local Pick-Up”?

Local pick-up is available in & around Athens, GA (or further if you feel like making a day trip!). We’ll let you know when your purchase is ready for you. Then, head on over to Georgia Cycle Sport off Baxter St. in Athens to pick up your order.

How long will it take my order to ship?

That depends! Most in stock items will be shipped within 3-5 business days. Custom orders should expect a 1-4 week lead time. All of our bags are handmade in Athens, Georgia.

Peak seasons and sale periods may cause delays in shipping, but The CCB Team works hard to get orders out as quickly as we can.

My order has shipped. When will I receive it?

With standard shipping, your order should arrive between 3-7 business days.

I received a shipping confirmation, but my tracking number shows no movement. What’s happening?

We’re sorry for the inconvenience! It’s possible that the shipping carrier did not perform an origin scan on your package, but that it is in transit to you. It’s also possible that the CCB Team had to create an updated shipping label for your order, but the new tracking number didn’t make it to you. It’s also possible that the carrier has lost your package and a claim may need to be filed.

We recommend contacting us via email if you see no movement on the tracking after 72 hours.
