The Super Ego: A Winner in Las Vegas
In 2005, Imago Metrics evaluated our Super Ego messenger bag. Imago Metrics recently sent the above picture to us, showing that their Super Ego is still very much in use.
"We were in Las Vegas for a conference and of course, the Super Ego came along as the carry-on.
Unfortunately it came back home a little lighter for 'cash contents' - but as always , Tom Bihn's Super Ego was the real winner. The smile is saying "Thanks Tom"." -- Imago Metrics.

Macworld recommends: TOM BIHN Brain Cell
Sleeves in Brief: Rigid cases
By Dan Frakes
"I’ve always been impressed by the quality of Tom Bihn bags, and the Brain Cell is no exception. Specifically designed to clip into Tom Bihn bags, it nevertheless works well on its own or inside other bags and backpacks. Made of 500-denier Cordura nylon with rigid side panels and interior padding, the Brain Cell offers impressive protection. Even the bottom of the sleeve is rock-solid, with only the top edge omitting some sort of rigid plate. (That edge instead offers two layers of foam padding, one on each closing flap; the two flaps secure using Velcro.)" Read the full article at Macworld or check out the Brain Cell.
Above: A picture shows a 15" Powerbook cradled in the four layers of protection that our Brain Cell hard-sided laptop case provides.

Plastic bags are killing us (Use a resuable bag instead)
From Salon:
Plastic bags are killing us
The most ubiquitous consumer item on Earth, the lowly plastic bag is an environmental scourge like none other, sapping the life out of our oceans and thwarting our attempts to recycle it. Read the full article at Salon and consider using a reusable bag like our Utility Tote for groceries. Our Utility Tote is made out of 1000 denier Cordura, is made in our Seattle factory, and is a real reusable alternative to plastic shopping bags. It'll last you a decade (or two.)
