Description

The classic bum bag/sling bag is back for a minimalist scoot around town or your next skate along the beach!

Full Description

Walk through the features of the Bummer.

Hip Belt

The belt extends from 23" at the shortest to 45" at its longest. It features two adjuster locks (tri-glides) to keep the straps in place while you're wearing it and held close to the bag, as well as some integrated strap keepers to further manage your straps. Don't like the tri-glides or strap keepers? No prob, pull the strap from the tri-glides, slide the buckle off, then slide the tri-glide and/or strap keepers off.

Put it around your waist or wear it cross-body. Or don't and wear it some other way; we're not the bag cops.

Front Pocket

A front pocket for your phone, some pens, keys, your wallet, Ring Pops, or whatever else you want to put in there.

Grab Handles

In front of both of the hip belts are little grab loops.

Grab it! Hang it! Clip it!

O-Rings

You know 'em, you love 'em. 3 o-rings -- two in the main compartment and one in the front compartment. Clip things to 'em  with a key strap and never dig for your wallet, keys, or Tamagotchi again.

    Great with one niggle

    Excellent craftsmanship, fit and finish. Perfect size for everyday carry. One niggle, hard to cinch down the belt to stay tight. It's multistep guesswork. Needs to be grab, pull, tight.

    Not a Bummer Bummer

    Works great for phone, keys, cash instead of lugging my Synapse 19

    Bummer is a clever but inaccurate name.

    The bummer is the 6th Tom Bihn bag I have purchased (7th if you count the Black Bag Messenger Bag I bought from Tom in Santa Cruz in the late 1980s). All of the bags are immaculately made and I believe they will last me the rest of my life.

    I like to wear the Bummer as a cross body bag most of the time, but the hip/fanny pack option is also good.

Sewn in Seattle

Our bags are designed and sewn right here in Seattle, Washington, U.S.A.

That allows us to be control freaks in the best way possible; we have direct control and oversight of the quality of our materials, our products, and the jobs and working environment that we help create. It also offers us a unique spontaneity: when we have an idea for a new product or accessory, we can design it, figure out how to build it, add it to our website and be ready to ship it out our front door all within just a few weeks. How cool is that?

Intrigued? You can find out more about the unusual way we do business on our Company Philosophy page.

THE BIHN Guarantee

Everything you buy from us here at TOM BIHN is satisfaction guaranteed. We’ve been in business since 1972 and we stand behind what we make.

If something goes wrong and it's our fault, we'll fix it for free. Repairs due to normal wear and tear or due to other things that are not our fault will be performed, when possible, at a reasonable charge right here in our Seattle factory where your bag was made. Defects in materials or workmanship are uncommon and almost always evident while the product is still new. Keep in mind that bags and packs are often subject to extreme wear in everyday use: do not expect them to last forever. Only true love lasts forever! You can expect a TOM BIHN product to give years and years of hard service.
