I signed up for the Rough Stuff Fellowship Kickstarter campaign last year. Loved the idea of the reproduction top tube panniers Carradice made back in the day. The package from the UK arrived yesterday and I am thrilled. Perfect fit for my 63cm AR. Lovely dark green waxed cotton. Nice plaid lining. These will do nicely for the riding I do. Also got the archive book which is brilliant too. Not sure they have any more of these left, or if Carradice will ever make more. I think the limit was 100 sets. You can look it up on Kickstarter.

Thanks for posting this. I was curious what these were gonna end up looking like. Any issues with knee contact?

No issue with knee contact at all. Really well thought out design.

Very cool, Marty! I also ordered the Rough Stuff book with Carradice top tube panniers, and still am waiting on my order. I couldn't pass up the chance to try out the panniers!

From what I heard, Carradice may be interested in bringing the panniers back in regular production.

Best,
Shawn in PDX

Looks like they still have some for sale on the Isola Press website. 
Best,

I came “this close” to including these in my order.  I’m kicking myself now.  Those look fantastic, and I must see if I can snag a set.  Thanks for the photos!
