Our next debut and restock will be on Monday, 11/29, at 7:00am Pacific Time. Want to see everything that'll be debuted and restocked in one spot? Visit the 11/29 Debut & Restock page. Have questions? Ask in the comments (you'll be notified via email when we respond!)
And, after that, our next restock is tentatively scheduled for 12/13. Two things worth noting: we plan to stock more Organic Cotton Trucks on 12/13 and 12/14 is the recommended last day to place UPS Ground orders to the East Coast for delivery by or on 12/24.
DEBUTS
The Old School Carry-All (OSCA) is a reissue of a TOM BIHN design of the 1990's. It features a generous main compartment that's flanked on either side by 3D zippered pockets, one of which is mesh. Carry it by its comfortable padded handles or add an optional shoulder strap and you're good to go.
Worth noting: we made plenty of OSCAs in an effort to prevent them from selling out too quickly, so we don't think that will happen. If they do sell out, they won't be restocked until sometime in early 2022.
A special edition of our classic Truck tote. It's made with Organic Cotton that's grown in Texas, woven in small mills in North and South Carolina, and finished in North Carolina. Available in three colors dyed just for us: Natural, Talus grey, and Santa Cruz electric purple/blue.
We made a plentiful batch of Organic Cotton Trucks, and we're already working on a second batch that we expect to stock on 12/13.
The Tray Bien was originally designed by Tom to organize and display our various Organizer Pouches and Key Straps at our Seattle Factory Showroom. Folks who stopped by to browse always asked if they could purchase the Tray itself in addition to the Organizer Pouches it held. And now they can!
Here’s a few of the ways the crew here at TOM BIHN use the Tray Bien:
- As an entryway organizer: holds keys, wallet, phone.
- Inside of a drawer to organize stationary and office supplies.
- On the top of a desk or bureau — organizes pens, momentos, chargers, cables.
- In the workshop to organize tools.
Worth noting: as we shared in our More Updates & What's Next post, we don't expect to restock the Tray Bien until sometime in 2022 due to a materials delay.
It's now a tradition: during the holiday season, we restock Tom's Firewood Carrier. It's based off a simple design that Tom made back in the 1970's as gifts for family and friends.
We've made plenty of Tom's Firewood Carriers and don't expect them to sell out. We expect that the next time they'd be restocked is during the 2022 holiday season.
Large Shepherd's Wool Utility Cloth in Glasgow & Home Modern Tartans
Modern and Glasgow Tartans will be available in our Large Shepherd's Wool Utility Cloth! There's so many uses for these cloths. This year we're all about wrapping, bundling, or protecting other gifts in the Shepherd's Wool Cloths: what's better than gift wrap that's actually functional and reusable in countless ways?
RESTOCKS
Techonaut 30
Techonaut 45
Techonaut 30 Packing Cubes
Techonaut 45 Packing Cubes
This is the first time that the Techonaut 30 and Techonaut 45 have been restocked. We debuted the Techonaut for pre-order this summer. As you might recall, it's a travel bag that can be carried as a backpack, duffel, or shoulder bag. Features include a dedicated laptop compartment, breathable back panel, and our famous Edgeless shoulder straps.
Packing Cubes designed to fit either the Techonaut 30 or Techonaut 45 have also been restocked. (If you're looking for the Laundry Packing Cubes: those will be stocked end of this month or early next year.)
The Synik 30 needs no introduction: it's so popular that despite doing our best, we've had trouble keeping it stocked this year. So, here we are, restocking it once again. If you've had your eye on the Synik 30, we would recommend ordering sooner rather than later.
This photo shows the Everyday Cubelet in Northwest Sky on a very Northwest kind of day. It's a versatile bag that can be used as a minimal shoulder bag or as an organizer inside of your larger bag.
The ever-classic Small Cafe Bag. It's one of those bags folks gift to both themselves and their loved ones.
Medium Cafe Bag
The next size up of our classic Cafe bags.
Small & Large Zip-Top Shop Bags (Cerylon + other fabrics)
Small & Large Original Shop Bags (Cerylon + other fabrics)
These are hot off the factory floor, completed just in time to be included in the 11/29 Debut & Restock.
It's like Shop Bags were always meant to be made out of Cerylon: the hand of the fabric offers the perfect amount of softness and structure.

That’s exactly the information I was hoping to find out! Looking forward to what 2022 brings, enough matter if it’s a restock of the old designs or if progress is made on the new design. Also really looking forward to the tray bein!

Awesome — and thanks for your understanding re: the creative process. Do you picture the Tray Bien being useful for knitting tools and the like, or for other uses?
