Sustainability is more of a journey than a destination. And we hope the steps we take are always in the right direction. While we continue to grow our collections of bags made from recycled pre- and post-consumer materials, there are other ways we can leave a smaller footprint — like 100% recycled and recyclable shipping bags, manufacturing more bags closer to home to reduce emissions, and partnering with suppliers who help us create products that require less water, use fewer chemicals, and promote fair and ethical labor.

I am a big fan of Timbuk2 bags. I own 3-4 of them now. I should have purchased this one along time ago. I have a couple messenger bags and the Authority backpack which it states is 28 liters but is too small to be 28 liters but the quality of Timbuk2 bags is superb. I've the years I have taken those other bags on many trips and used as a daily and they look almost brand new still. This bag is no exception to that quality. This bag is the pefect size for both a daily and a travel companion to a suitcase of even travel backpack. The YKK zippers are well made and zip nicely. The material is durable and the handles will hold anything you out in it. I love that this is both a backpack and a messenger style bag with and shoulder strap. You have plenty of adjustment on the strap so you can carry it on one shoulder or sling it over cross body. There are so many pockets for organization and the main compartment has plenty of room for books and a tablet and even could get a change of clothes in there. The padded laptop sleeve has plenty of padding to keep my laptop safe. One feature I really like that I havent seen on other bags is in addition to the stowable backpack straps you have the luggage handle passthrough. The difference is that the passthrough has a zipper on each side so when you are not traveling you could store items in that compartment. I wish it had a water bottle holder , which is ok for my daily commute. When I travel i will just use a carabiner on the webbing loops on the front. The webbing loops on it are well constructed and made well and will definately hold a water bottle handing from it. I will be a repeat buyer of this bag for many years to come.

Great bag, works perfectly for my commute to NYC from NJ. Sometimes you get tired of just having a backpack and want to look a little professional with a briefcase, and sometimes you want to give your shoulder a break and have a backpack — endless possibilities! All seriousness, nice bag, lots of pockets, very comfortable. Lots of areas for clips (should you want them). Would recommend and buy again.

I wear my guitar as a backpack, so this backpack transforms into a sling bag, which is so helpful when I travel.

Not the most comfortable shoulder strap, but weight plays a factor so your experience will vary.I've been looking for a Duane Hybrid Briefcase alternative and this checks all the boxes, PLENTY of pockets and it's very roomy and carries alot. I've bought so much bags and returned so much to get to this point and finally deciding on one really says a lot.Some things I would want improved is the shoulder strap quality, I might commision a third party to get a custom one made.I would also like the option to change the materials of the bag. Not a fan of the weird leather at the front. I also don't like the zipper design as well, I want something solid and easy to open and close.Just a personal want, I would like the option to add a clear window on the front.Highly recommend this bag.

There was a noticeable build quality difference from the messenger bag I purchased 7 years ago($50 medium). Zippers are more frail and pull cords are stringy and not hardy. The compartments are convenient but Timbuk 2 typically is OBSESSIVE about how they construct these packs. It's very convenient as it converts from a briefcase/messenger bag to a backpack but honestly it fails at both. Don't get me wrong, it's serviceable but there is no way this survives the abuse and longevity of my previous pack. The shoulder strap is thinner and not as padded making it less comfortable if you're an airport/travel person. Backpack straps are serviceable but underwhelming, though it is modestly comfortable to wear as a backpack minus the lack of padding and poor straps. Also, oddly, the "black" comes through as more dark blue.

I didn't keep the bag for long. The config was very uncomfortable (maybe because I am left handed??). The fabric felt thin, but the worst were the buckles that make out the straps of the back pack: very very plastic flimsy, very easy to break (due to the closure style). Did not seem to fit a lot of stuff either. I returned it.

Love the shape and design. More pockets than you’ll ever need.It’s versatile enough to carry all my kids’ garbage on the weekend and I can also use it for business travel during the week.
