Earlier today, we got to take a rare tour of the Timbuk2 bag factory here in San Francisco, as part of the SFMade week. The company, known for its durable, high quality and completely customizable bike messenger bags, has an at-home production line to make manufacturing orders as efficient as possible.
Now, the San Francisco factory doesn't make all of Timbuk2's bags. The company's specialized models and iPad cases, for instance, are made overseas. However, if you've ever ordered a customized or Classic Timbuk2 messenger bag, you can bet your britches that it was made in this very factory. Scroll down to peruse through the gallery of our tour, and play around with Timbuk2's own (Flash-based) bag builder!
