Full Description
Use the Packing Cube Shoulder Bag like any other TOM BIHN travel cube. Once you arrive at your destination, attach a shoulder strap and pack your daily essentials.
Main Compartment With 2 O-rings
When you're packing for your trip, use the Cube to organize and pack your clothing inside the Aeronaut, Tri-Star, or Western Flyer. When you want to use the bag for daily use, the Packing Cube Shoulder Bag has enough space for a water bottle or light jacket. You can also attach a Key Strap on one of the O-rings and a Clear Organizer Wallet on the other.
Front Pocket With 1 O-ring
The front pocket has enough space for your phone and other daily essentials. There's also an O-ring included to attach a pouch like the Clear Organizer Pouch, Double Organizer Pouch, or Ghost Whale Organizer Pouch.
What's Optional
Most folks who use our bags have at least one shoulder strap made by us, and thus we don't include a shoulder strap with the Packing Cube Shoulder Bag. If you would like a second shoulder strap for the Packing Cube Shoulder Bag, or simply a lighter shoulder strap, choose the optional 1" Shoulder Strap.

Just returned from a vacation and this bag came in very handy as a packing cube, seven bathing suits and 4 thin cover ups, day shopping bag and beach bag. It’s not structured so it can take a lot. I took the shoulder strap and key snap hook from my Sidekick (this one came with one already) and was set to go for the week. Colour was perfect for the beach.

I wasn’t sure what to expect with this bag, but I find myself reaching for it often. Handy, good size - can fit large water bottles in it if I need to.

I'm not sure why it's called "Packing Cube Shoulder Bag." It should be called "The Best Ever Shoulder Bag!" It's light, flexible, small enough to look good as a crossbody, but still perfectly fits my iPad (see photo). And it looks great just sitting there! I put my Everyday Cubelet inside to further organize and add a couple more O-rings. The Acai Halcyon is my favorite color so far that Tom Bihn offers, so here's my official request: PLEASE MAKE THE SYNAPSE/SYNIK IN ACAI HALCYON! Or something similar!

I needed a zippable shoulder bag during recent travels to France without taking up too much space. The Packing Cube Shoulder Bag fit all of my needs!
I packed a bunch of clothes inside and then took those out to use the bag as a shoulder day bag. I used the same strap I use for my Aeronaut 30 to save some space as well. I could fit a small water bottle, an e-reader, and small things like my phone, wallet, and keys inside easily. The O-rings throughout and the front pocket help with organization.

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?
