Their new lineup is suitable for the woman on the go!
Last month I reviewed a Timbuk2 classic messenger bag. I even took it with me to the 2013 CES. I enjoyed their collection a lot; so I am excited about the new additions to their growing line.
At CES Timbuk2 announced two new bags – two powered bags! I am all about power on the go; so this is great news. Timbuk2 has teamed up with Joey Energy to bring you the Power Commute and Power Q.
Both of these bags come with a Joey T1 power unit. The Joey T1 has a water resistant case. It’s compact and slim with a satellite USB port. So anything with a USB drive you can charge with the bag.
