Excerpt:
“We instantly took notice of Tom Bihn Ristretto Bag’s superior quality. The materials used in this iPad case were strong and sturdy. It is very detailed and obviously done with superior quality and care. The Tom Bihn logo at the bottom right side of the bag is sized enough to be seen.”

Excerpt:
“Despite the weight of the bag fully loaded (which was considerable), my dainty little flower of a wife was able to carry the bag with ease, due mostly to the incredible Absolute shoulder strap. The strap – to borrow a turn of phrase from Steve Jobs – magically incorporates elasticity which creates flex in the bag as one walks with it and reduces the strain on the shoulder. Truly a fantastic strap and worth every penny.”

Nana8 posted the following thread – Empire Builder On Its Way! – in the TOM BIHN Forums…
“Those were the words of the UPS guy as he came through the door of my office last Friday!! I personally was trying to be professional and jumping up and down inside!
The UPS guy told me he has delivered so many TB’s that he now checks the forum regularly! (UPS guy, if you’re reading this – introduce yourself! We would like to meet you!)Anyway, he was so excited he asked me if he could watch me open the box (huh?). Well of course he can! I swear, he oooh’d and awww’d as much as I did. And ever so reverently, actually touched my brand new Empire Builder! Hey now! We TB folks get very possessive about our bags. I told him there was a cure for that — order his own bag!
Once again, Casey and Katie came through (were there any doubts at all?). I needed some hardware to use one of my existing straps and dear Casey not only provided it but provided additional hardware so I could change the strap back if I chose! I just can not get over the EXCELLENT TB customer service!
And, Katie, you were right – absolutely everything FITS! Thank you so much for your direction and advice!”
“A few years ago, I had noticed Sara’s cute bag that she carried. I’m sure I asked her about it and I’m sure she told me about it, but I promptly forgot anything she told me because my mommy brain is… well… a sieve.
Last year I saw Sara during the summer and again admired her cute bag (same one… it was holding up nicely). I didn’t want to ask her about it AGAIN, so I just admired it from afar.
Then in August, Kristin was carrying a bag that was similar to Sara’s and I thought, “That’s it, I’m getting a bag like that!”
So I went searching. But I couldn’t find what I liked.
Then I met up with Sara again over Thanksgiving in Arkansas and this time asked about her bag.
Turns out they’re made by a small company in Seattle called Tom Bihn. I came home and ordered their Medium Cafe Bag. Sara has the Small Cafe Bag. My thoughts were that since I had all of Kira’s stuff to tote around with me, I’d like to have a bit bigger of a bag.”
“My Kiwi Little Swift arrived a few days ago, and I instantly fell in love with it. It took me all of five seconds to transfer everything out of the old leather purse I was using. The LS swallowed it all gracefully, with room to spare. Here’s what I have inside today….”
