I received a $100 gift certificate to Timbuk2 for the holidays (yippee!!!) and I'm wavering on what exactly I want to order. Here are the two options I've narrowed it down to:
Graphic messanger bag (comes in ballistic fabric)
M size - El Ocho
Aloha Hawaiian print
Tea Green side panels
Strap pouch
$120
Classic messanger bag
M size - El Ocho
Ballistic fabric
Black, silver, black color combo
Center divider
Logo in silver
iPod/PDA case
$105
If your having trouble visualizing what I'm describing you can go to www.timbuk2.com. Click on the link for custom bags and you can build each of these bags to see what they'll look like.
The Graphic bag is what I originally thought I wanted and is appealing for it's funk factor. The fact that it's unique is also a plus. I see Timbuk2 bags all the time and have never seen this one.
The Classic bag is more of a "plane Jane" but the color combo will go with just about anything. The ability to add a center panel also means the bag is more compartmentalized (rather than just a vast expance of bag) and therefore will be easier to organize.
Lola's Papa and I will both likely be using this bag. Dan has said he'd have no problem carrying the Graphic bag with the Aloha print (I love my man!) so that isn't an issue.
What would you choose?
