A Trip to the CHOK GothX Shop in Manchester

Last month we took a trip up North to visit the owner of CHOK & GothX's brick and mortar store, biggibagga, in Manchester.

Based in the legendary Afflecks Emporium, formally known as Afflecks Palace, the store boasts a huge range of styles and designs.

Sorry the photos are a little low quality, they are screenshots from our Instagram reel video which you can watch here.

This family run, small business all begun back in 2006...

...and has been providing high quality bags for Manchester, the North West ( and now online) ever since!

CHOK bags are mostly based upon the Skate and Punk fashion, featuring a lot of variations of checker designs and a detachable decorative chain that goes across the backpacks.

GothX bags are inspired by gothic and emo fashion, all made entirely from vegan leather and packed full of skulls, studs and crosses.

And we can't forget the miscellaneous bags supplied by CHOK & GothX, ranging from retro gaming inspired backpacks to kawaii glitter dinosaur shoulder bags.

There's even a section for bag decorating clips which we should be getting in the new year!
