jjsouth: Medium Cafe Bag (Cocoa/Olive) Photos

“I have flown twice with my bag and have been amazed at how much it holds. I flew with my daughter (around 18 months old during both trips) and was able to carry her in my Ergo backpack carrier and the only other thing I had to carry was my Cafe bag. It held all the stuff I needed for the flight.

It was so nice to have easy access to my wallet and keys when the bag was packed so tight. I thought it was kind of funny for me to be walking so casually on to the airplane with a baby in tow while others struggled with their massive carry ons. Perhaps it is partly about lifestyle choices, but I have no doubt that my Tom Bihn bag made a huge difference.”

Update from But She’s a Girl: Synapse as carry-on bag

But She's a Girl... review of the Synapse by TOM BIHN, take 2

Excerpt:
“I’m beginning to think that the Synapse is one of the best purchases I’m made in recent years. I don’t think that there has been a day when I haven’t used it. If I go out of the house, the Synapse comes with me, whether I am driving, walking or cycling. It has put up with being laden with an enormous diversity of items, covered in dust and sand, and being soaked by torrential rain storms. Despite all that, it has only needed a quick wipe with a damp cloth to end up looking as good as it did when I bought it nearly 6 months ago.”

Review of the Co-Pilot by antje b.

antje b. review of the TOM BIHN Co-Pilot

“Although I already used to buy my shoulder bags with neat compartmentalisation in mind (and would occasionally somehow DIY more pockets into them), I have never before had a bag that had everything as neatly stored yet accessible as this one. Hopefully the days of searching through my bag for what seems like forever just for my anti-bacterial hand gel or lip balm are over.”
