Featured Brand: Timbuk2

You know it and we know it…there are two types of people in this world: those who might think they have their sh*t together and those who have been introduced to the brand Timbuk2. Founded in the sunny, bright, and lively city of San Francisco by a bike messenger who probably had thighs of concrete and steel, as well as zero patience for flimsy/suck-y bags.

Timbuk2 has spent years (decades…that’s a lot of years) engineering gear that survives an “on-the-move” type of life in all its chaotic, coffee-spilling, sprinting-for-the-train glory. The pieces NorthPoint is loving and wants to specifically highlight feel like the brand collectively looked at the overstuffed, can-never-find-where-I-put-my-F%KING-AirPods lifestyle and said, “Sweetie, give me your hands to hold when I tell you…let’s fix this.” The results? A family of bags designed with the kind of clever pockets, ride-or-die materials, and loud confidence you usually only find in people who don’t lose their keys (and patience) twice a day. 

Take the City Compass Core Pack, the reliable and dependable friend who never says no to your commute, your carry-on, and that one time you tried “hot desk hopping” for the aesthetic.

Then there is the City Compass Messenger Bag, which is honestly basically a love letter for those who need just a grab-and-go bag without broadcasting you are an absolute mess to society today.

Meanwhile, the City Compass Flap Backpack is for the urban explorer who wants something structured enough to look quite intentional but flexible enough to hold a hoodie, laptop, and three snacks (or more, because who only carries three snacks…that’s criminal for you and your tummy).

As for the tech maximalists (nope, didn’t forget about you & shoutout to our designer Nick if you’re reading this), the City Compass Tech Flap Pack is essentially a padded fortress for your devices: your laptop, tablet, mouse, portable charger, and probably your sense of worth after a two hour long meeting.

What really makes Timbuk2 a brand we love and want to highlight isn’t some lame or cliché “built-to-last” slogan or fake promise that a bag will “change the game” or “change your life.” It’s that they create products that understand how people actually live and then make them tough enough to survive even a person’s worst day. We know you (our clients) love adding bags to swag collections, employee gifts, special giveaways to customers, etc., because they are useful, stylish without trying too hard, gender-neutral, and they don’t find themselves in the office lost & found. Timbuk2 gives teams & brands something they can use daily without lost trust and concern over longevity. Reliable and here to help you get through both the best and worst days…as every brand should! 

And if you needed another reason to obsess over them: Timbuk2 truly walks the walk when it comes to sustainability and product responsibility. They live and work in the communities they design for, and they give a damn—recycling, repairing, and repurposing bags through programs that have kept every single Timbuk2 bag out of landfills since 2014. Thousands of pieces have been brought back to life instead of tossed aside. Pair that with their legendary lifetime warranty, and you’ve got a brand that stands behind every stitch. Their products start with thoughtful, uncompromising design, continue with sustainably sourced materials from bluesign® certified mills, and finish with durability testing that proves these bags can genuinely last a lifetime. And if anything ever needs fixing? They’ve got you. Forever.
