renaissance chambara | Ged Carroll - Sometimes you can’t be right

Timbuk2 have been working with Rootphi on making supermarket carrier bags into a suitably robust fabric to make Timbuk2 messenger bags. I have used Timbuk2 bags for years, they are made of ballastic nylon, heavy gauge cordura or x-Pac (which is used to make around the world racing boat sails), so the supermarket bag fabric laminate has a lot to live up to.

Last week Timbuk2 let its customers know that it did not know when its recycled bag range would be ready. The process was taking longer to get right than they had anticipated.
