Etymology
The term 'pannier' comes from the Middle French word 'panier', which means 'basket' or 'saddlebag'. Its origins can be traced back to the Latin word 'panarium', which referred to a bread basket. The use of panniers dates back to ancient times when they were used for transporting goods on pack animals. Over the years, the design and utility of panniers evolved but the fundamental concept of a bag for carrying items has remained consistent. In the modern context, panniers are most commonly associated with cycling, as they provide a practical solution for cyclists looking to carry cargo efficiently. This adaptation has made them an essential accessory for those who commute by bike or embark on long rides.
