Any Tom Bihn bag users here? I've been reading about the brand and watching YT videos about the products and I feel like I'm getting sucked in. But they're so darn expensive. Wanted to know if anyone here uses them and do they feel it's worth the hefty price? I really like all the little accessories too. Do I need a $35 reusable tote to take to Loblaws? No. But its got padded handles and it's darn cute too. :wink:

I have a large cafe that I have been using as my main carry-around/satchel for a few years now and it's great. holds way more than you'd think. I can even carry my laptop in sleeve in it - and the strap, which is just a branded OpTech - is really comfortable. The pouch system takes a bit of getting used to but works very well. As a bit of a bag junkie, I can say that for bags of this quality, the Bihn's aren't really expensive.

Don't know much about TB bags, I swear by timbuk2 messenger bags. I've had one now for about six years and it looks a little worn but still going strong. You can even get the classic messenger at mec and save the shipping.
