We recently received this true story from a customer about how their bag saved their life. The following is his story:

I’m writing this to you to let you know that my Timbuk2 messenger bag saved my life. I got it a week ago, it’s an XL Leaf Green one. Today I was riding home from work when a lady in an SUV that I was riding next to makes a right turn without signaling, runs over my back wheel, and I go flying about 6 feet, and then tumbling for another 4. My hands are scraped up, my elbows, and a small portion of my lower back. But the majority of the battering was taken by my new messenger bag, and it looks fine still. If I wasn’t wearing it, I would most certainly be missing all the skin on my back. So thank you.

Heavy stuff! Thanks for sharing your story Noah. We’ll all thank our messenger bags a little more than usual today.
