I'm going to be using acrylic paints, spray paint, and india ink.

What kind of media is good for waterproofing and sealing the bag so that the image won't bleed and still be flexible?

Thanks!

I bought a couple of custom bags recently and the colors and patterns are no longer available. A coworker loved mine so much, I was asked to order another for her as a going away gift. We were disappointed to find the pattern gone and nothing but camo for specialty fabric. The colors are quite limited as well. When are you going to add more patterns and colors...hopefully something less war like and a little more cheerful.

I specked out a bag on saturday, and went to order today (monday) and over the weekend, a large selection of colors seem to have been culled from the build-a-bag (Red Devil, Gold, Gun metal, really dark green, and Army, etc...) Is this a permanent cull or temporary. I saw you answered someone else that a particular color was just out of stock.

Are you planning on adding more colors/fabrics to the commute 2.0 bags any time soon? Or adding them to the bag builder? I'd love one in all graphite green (hint, hint)

Can the laptop sleeve be cut out from laptop messenger without damaging bag? I bought a beautiful custom laptop messenger for my wife for Christmas, but the laptop sleeve is so thick that it limits the usefulness of the bag when she is not carrying her laptop. And when she is carrying her laptop, she'd prefer to use her own sleeve that is slimmer and leaves more room for other things in the bag (like her large Med school books). So I'm wondering whether it might be possible to cut out and permanently remove the laptop sleeve without damaging the bag itself. Has anyone tried this or have a suggested method?

Kicking myself for not having bought the straight-up messenger bag . . .

Seeing as the front photos are of the middle panel lit up via a direct light source, I was wondering if you could upload photos of them in daylight, like half of it is on the diagram photos.

what are the dimensions of the size S Commute 2.0?

thanks

can we buy the dolores cooler bottle opener as a separate accessory / replacement part?



tis cool to have a Timbuk2 bottle opener at hand, planning to attach one to my key fob.

does the limited edition wool Commute have a luggage pass through feature?

Is the commute 2.0 small enough to count as a "personal item" on a flight, or would you have to designate it your carry on bag?

Hi, is there anyway to help save on the shipping? I see all the nice discounts for the bags and I really want to get another one, but the $50 shipping is really a killer!

There is a small black loop in the middle of my Commute 2.0 (at the bottom). It is about 2 inches long. What is it for?

Does the blogger only come in a size Medium (it's just barely too small to fit my normal-size laptop). And is the blogger being discontinued? I hope not! My husband has a size large and it's the perfect size and shape for me. Also, I wish I could build my own blogger bag in a size large!

Is there a way for me to sew on my own compression straps without ruining the integrity of the waterproof lining? Or since they will be on the bottom and I don't plan on putting my bag in a puddle of water maybe it won't really matter?
