Count me in as excited for the PCSB!

I generally clip/tether (or just "tuck") my smaller organizers. One exception was when I was using a Side Kick as hybrid organizer/daypack inside a larger mostly-unorganized bag. In that case, I had...

For what it's worth, I only used it in "briefcase" mode for EDC, for similar reasons. :)



Entirely agreed on the WF being great for all 3 "positions" for air travel depending on how much you...

Welcome to the forums, @Abe21599!

I have moved back and forth among a few TB bags for EDC.

I really liked the Stowaway for this kind of thing; I could generally fit my EDC in the front and...

Welcome to the forums, @skeelo34, and thanks for such an informative and helpful response!

Welcome to the forums, @jeffeby!

For what it's worth, I see many older Caches go by on eBay and some on the unofficial Tom Bihn BST Facebook group. The 16-inch MBP should fit in the same sleeves...

I posted in the wish list that I thought I wanted a Packing Cube Shoulder Bag with some internal organization, and then I posted that I probably just wanted a PCSB "Freudian Slip". After thinking for...

Indeed, welcome to the forums, @swhme!

As regards width, the Pilot is a slightly larger version of the Co-Pilot, which would hopefully address your issue with file folders and the like. The larger...

I think you've got lots of choices. :)
Assuming you only intend to carry a couple of handbooks at a time, I think nearly any of the messenger or briefcase bags would work: Daylight Briefcase, Pilot,...

Welcome to the forums, @kimonostereo!

I'm also hoping we get a wide variety of Solaris items, and that one would certainly be a good match. :)

Welcome to the forums, @buttoncurler, and thanks for sharing your experience! I hope the forums keep giving you the info you're looking for. :)

Sorry for the delay. Much better!

They look gorgeous. :)
On my screens, the color of the "selector" for Constellation Blue looks very dark, much closer to the selector for Deep Blue than the photos of their respective fabrics.

PCSB in Coyote Halcyon 200! (I'd probably prefer Halcyon 400 and Recycled 630, but Coyote 200 looks like a shade I'd prefer to Coyote 210.)

Being totally on team Western Flyer, I was thinking something very similar. If I need to move a huge amount of stuff, using a backpack Aeronaut plus a WF-with-shoulder-strap personal item carries...

I have put a couple of different 14-inch laptops in a DLBP, but I don't have any 15-inch laptops. That said, it looks like any Cache size up to 15C (which would hold a 2016 MBP 15 or MBP 16) should...

According to the end of the product page, no: "Slightly larger laptops in their respective Cache sleeves (or other minimalist sleeve/case) will fit loose in the main compartment of the Luminary (note...

For what it's worth, Spencer of "My Tom Bihn Reviews" has carried a MacBook Pro 15 in a Pilot in a non-Cache sleeve, although the fit was tight:

I did receive my DLBC today, and my X1 Yoga in an off-brand neoprene sleeve fits very well. I'm planning to use this as my EDC for a while, and maybe as a packable walking-around bag for travel.

For what it's worth, I believe this strap is basically like the SK strap, but with hooks instead of gatekeepers:...

For what it's worth, I believe a ThinkPad X1 Carbon fits in mostly the same places as an "old" MacBook Air 13, including the 13A (and old AIR13) Cache, which in turn should fit in the DLBC. (I only...

Hi @dailo, and thanks for posting on the forum!

I believe the o-ring in that pocket is the same as on the outside of the smaller shoulder bags (like the Travel Cubelet or Side Effect) so I'd...

For what it's worth, a forum search will find a couple of discussions about using the WF as an EDC briefcase; some people are pretty skeptical about its looks, but a few people have posted about...

I think you've named almost all of the bags that make sense to me, except for the Synik 30, which may be able to just barely hold it in the integrated laptop compartment. (I have neither the laptop...

Hi, @Sillybear, and welcome to the forums!

Aldi is also a favorite of mine! I keep a quarter in my wallet just in case I need a cart, but most of the time I'm only getting enough to fill one or...
