About Us

LOUIS & JOY is a small-batch brand dedicated to crafting high-quality cycling bags and accessories by hand in our Chaska, Minnesota studio. Originally from Marin County, California, our journey began with a passion for bikes and the need for well-made gear. Our name honors my parents, Robin Louis & Betty Joy, who continue to inspire me every day. After my father passed in 2014, cycling became my therapy—leading me from road and crit racing to cyclocross and, eventually, sewing my first framebag in 2018. What started as a personal project quickly grew, as friends began requesting bags, and LOUIS & JOY has been evolving ever since.
