Jungle City profile of TOM BIHN by Riho Miyamoto

Translation: “Tom Bihn’s bags are union of functionality and design. Owner and designer, Tom Bihn, likes outdoor activities from an early age and started making bags for outdoors more than twenty years ago. Their durable and functional bags are waterproof and highly recommended for bike commuters. Their unique design and color scheme make your day more fun. Among the variety of bags including laptop bags and backpacks to suit your purposes, hand-carry travel bags are especially popular for the numerous pockets that help you organize your belongings. “Checking your bags in at the airport sometimes require a fee nowadays, so the demand for bags like this has been increasing,” says Tom. To maintain the quality rather than cutting the cost, all of their bags are made in their factory in Seattle. Their bags are sold exclusively through their website, but you can also visit their show room, which opens to the public once a month.”
