I think I am going to order a Timbuk2, but can't decide on what color(s) to get? I like red but don't know if I should get it all red or if I do part of it red, what other color(s) should I get. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

I wish I could offer some help in picking out colors, but I am in the same boat. I play with that T2 bag builder every day on my lunch hour. One of my possible picks is also a solid red. Jessica (Calmegja2) has a solid red bag. Maybe she could be coerced into posting pics??????

I've never been much of a pink girl, but it's such a big color this year that I have considered a solid pink bag. Although if I spend the $$$s for the T2 I should probably buy a color that would work more year 'round - like RED!

I don't know if you have seen this thread or not - but it contains pics of Sarah's (mamahill) bag. http://www.windsorpeak.com/dc/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=63&topic_id=2771&mesg_id=&page=&mode=full#2820

let us know what colors you select!

Colors that I think look good with red in cordura: sky, navy, silver, olive, royal, orange, and yellow.

Colors that I like with red in ballistic: black, silver, light blue, gray, yellow, orange, light green, and navy.

I think part of it depends on whether you want a year-round bag or a summer bag. I really like the look of the bags with three colors or with the outer two matching and the middle a different color.

Let us know what you decide!

I love playing with the custom bag builder! Have you tried steel, silver and red? And change the logo to silver (against the steel). I thought it looked cool in that combo. (Although I usually play with the pastels.)

Thanks for the excuse to go play there again!
