User questions & answers
Question: | Are all the bags that are ordered set for right-handed people, or is there a way to choose left-handed |
Answer: | I own two different Timbuk2 messenger bags. A 2015 and circa late 1990's. Both of my bags can be configured for either right or left hand wear with zero difference in functionality or convenience. My circa 90's Timbuk2 is one of the old Dirt Rag magazine subscription give away versions from that era and I occasionally wore it over either shoulder when bicycling and found it very comfortable either way. I love that bag. Can't think of anything I could possibly give it up or trade it for. I've even used that bag loaded with my scrubs and essentials (I was an RN) folded up inside, retention strap hooked from the shoulder strap to the bags opposite clip for stability and allowing me to keep the bag right where I wanted it in the middle of my lower back while riding my CBR to work on many beautiful Michigan days and nights. So many wonderful, incredible memories! Thanks for allowing me to remember. Anyway, that bags seen a lot, been through a lot. Never a problem and still in great condition! Both of my Timbuk2 messenger bags are outstanding! Thanks again, Mike |
Question: | What size bag is in the video |
Answer: | That is a medium. |
Question: | Just how waterproof is the Carbon Full-Cycle Twill? I would need it to survive a Boston winter |
Answer: | it poured yesterday here in NYC and I was walking in the rain about 6 block to my car with no umbrella. The contents in my bag where still dry. It does a good job I would say. I had 10 manilla envelopes in my bag and none were affected by water. |
Question: | does the XS bag fit a 13 inch mac book pro |
Answer: | No. It will fit easily in the Small, however. Even an 11.6" laptop won't fit in the XS. Just a 10.1" 16:9 screened laptop (which is considerably longer than an iPad, since the iPad is more of a square while most laptops are more of a rectangle). The XS is certainly large enough for EDC with a tablet. The Small is large enough to be a personal item (35" sum of LxWxH) on a flight. The twin buckles and tuck in corners are superb in terms of keeping stuff from sliding out of either bag if you kick in under the seat. |

User questions & answers
Question: | Will this fit a 15" laptop |
Answer: | Yes, the Small will easily fit a 15" MacBook Pro 2014 or later for sure. Great tech bag. |

Answer: | There is a small zippered compartment on the outside flap. Inner dimensions about 5"x5".

User questions & answers
Question: | will it fit a 17" Lenovo laptop |
Answer: | I use a 15.6" Lenovo T530 and it barely fits in the laptop pocket which is in the back. It might fit in the front pocket under the big flap. The Timbuktu site has a Device Fit Guide where you can input your device by brand and model and it will tell you if it fits. You can find it here under the size choice buttons: http://www.timbuk2.com/command-messenger-bag/174.html |
Question: | The Timbuk2 website lists the materials as 'coated nylon' on this model. This listing says polyester. Thoughts |
Answer: | Coated nylon sounds more like what it is. I find it durable and resistant to water. I am very happy with this bag. |
Question: | Why is one color almost 150.00 more than another |
Answer: | Hello - I am not sure the difference in price, due to color. Our price is set at whatever the owner has listed it as on the Amazon store site. Kind Regards,Customer Service |
Question: | What size is best for a 15" Macbook Pro with an additional protective sleeve |
Answer: | I just tested the medium and small with my 2015 retina 15" macbook. Without any kind of sleeve or case the 15" will fit into the small. I have a padded case I put the laptop in and even with that it fits nicely into the medium. With the padded case it will not fit into the small without force. Here is the case: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009SCOVWE/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |

Question: | does it fit an alienware 15 r |
Answer: | Given the dimensions of the 15 r3 - 15.3x12x1 - the 12 inch dimension is the main problem for trying to fit this unit into the pack. You can try but it will be a very tight fit and possibly frustrating, in my opinion. |

User questions & answers
Question: | Can the bag stand on its own |
Answer: | Maybe if you balance it right. The bottom does flatten out. |
Question: | Can the bag stand on its own |
Answer: | Not really. I guess it could if you packed it very heavy at the bottom but otherwise no |
Question: | Does it come with the lifetime warranty? The ones you get in the store have it |
Answer: | I wondered the same thing when I bought mine. According to this, they only honor it with certain retailers: https://www.timbuk2.com/content/online-dealers.html. When I purchased mine here on Amazon, Zappos was the seller, so I'm interested to see how that all works out. |
Question: | is this waterproof |
Answer: | Great bag, but not waterproof. Good waterproof option would be Chrome bags. I’m a fan of both companies. Local and quality all around. |

User questions & answers
Question: | Are there any bike commuters that use this bag? How is it on your back |
Answer: | yes. I have my laptop in the laptop pocket and stick my headphones in the first zipper. It also holds my planner, additional notebook and kindle voyage. |
Question: | Is it water proof in heavy rain |
Answer: | Only if you stuff it full of things. Mine is fairly lightweight until I put my older laptop in it. I have a fairly small frame and it is not big or bulky when I wear it. |
Question: | I'm 4'8.5 - will this bag be overwhelming for someone my size |
Answer: | It could stand up to a light rain I believe, the material is thick canvas that has been treated. However being in heavy rain for a prolonged period of time, it would probably seep through. Hope that helps! |
Question: | Is it waterproof? For seattle rain |
Answer: | Actually no. Well, technically my 15.6-inch laptop (Acer E series) fit into the laptop pocket, but zipping the bag closed after was very difficult. And the bag would not have protected the corner/edge of the laptop at all. Sadly, have to return it. That's unfortunate, because otherwise it seems like a nicely made, compact and stylish bag. |

User questions & answers
Question: | what is the purpose of the strap with magnet clamp |
Answer: | It goes around the strap near the laptop sleeve and it is just an added layer of keeping it all together |
Question: | What differentiates this from the classic messenger bag |
Answer: | I had eight Timbuk2 bags. It really would be better to read the descriptions of the bags and look carefully at the bags. Some have just minute differences but those differences can make a big difference. I bought 2 that I would not have bought f I had really paid attention to detail. Fortunately I was able to give one of them to my son, the other just stays in the drawer waiting for me to give it away also. |
Question: | will the extra small size fit the new iPad Pro 12.9" comfortably? How tight of a fit is it |
Answer: | I have the smaller iPad Pro and it fits like a glove but this may be too small to fit the larger model. Mine fits perfectly and the larger model is much bigger so that leads me to believe it won’t fit. Sorry. |
Question: | Does the small size classic messenger have a laptop sleeve |
Answer: | All sizes will have a slip pocket. The XS size would be great for an iPad. The Small is designed for the 13" MacBook/Air/Pro, while the Medium accommodates the 15" version. |

User questions & answers
Question: | Will it fit my 2 16 inches laptop |
Answer: | I like it but it has a rigid rectangular thing along the vertical axis that might bother you if you have a bony back, especially if you have a laptop in the pack. It's not an issue if you are upright, just when you lean over the handlebars. Overall, I like the pack a lot and the straps are really comfortable |
Question: | How weatherproof is it |
Answer: | It should do just fine for all but bigger, windy, heavy rainstorms. If the top flap is tightly clipped in place it should keep the inside nice and dry.If you forget to tighten it up and clip it down though, expect the corners of pages to be damp. I'd also recommend carrying anything particularly vulnerable in the main pouch, since the front pouch has a standard zipper with no inside guard, that can let some moisture through. |
Question: | I have a 17.4ish Dell and am wondering if it will fit? I'm okay with snug, just not busting through the zippers tight |
Answer: | No it's a good size bag but not huge |
Question: | Is it big for |
Answer: | Great question, it features water resistant fabrics, and can be considered water resistant...but it lacks taped seam construction to be considered water proof. If you'll be in an extended downpour, we recommend a rain cover. |

User questions & answers
Question: | Do the bags separate |
Answer: | No they do not. They are attached at the top by the piece that goes over the rack. But they hold together with magnets at the bottom so when you carry it, it's like a single satchel. Love the bags! |
Question: | Can this hold a couple of vinyl records |
Answer: | It should. Holds a full size laptop sideways so assume it will work. I’d get it and if it doesn’t work easy to return. It’s a great bag. I rode home in a rainstorm the other day about 5 miles and none of the contents inside got wet! Had it for a couple years and never tested it that way so was happy it performed. I use it almost every day and the design is great and the durability is excellent. Still looks new. |
Question: | What is the capacity of each bag? Could I fit a pair of shoes in one of the panniers |
Answer: | You could definitely fit a pair of shoes in one of the panniers. I've had a full change of clothes for the gym and a pair of tennis shoes in one side without having to squish too much. |
Question: | Will it fit my 15 in laptop |
Answer: | Yes, I put my 15" laptop (in a neoprene sleeve) in it all the time. Be aware that, at least in the 2015 Diablo edition, the laptop compartment is not padded. I don't know if they improved that in the most recent version. |
