Timbuk2

Yesterday was a big one for us. The first custom messengers were sewn in our new San Francisco factory on Folsom Street and it’s Chinese New Year. Good omens galore!

To honor this achievement, the Timbuk2 team signed the first two messengers that came off the line. It was fitting that Hui kicked off the bag signing because she’s Timbuk2′s longest standing employee with 14 years of bag building under her belt. She has seen our manufacturing facilities on Treat Street, Alabama Street, and now Folsom Street. If you need to get it done, just ask Hui.

Big bad ups to Hui and the team for getting our new factory up and running on Folsom.
