Review on Timbuk2 Blink Pack Black Size: Your Perfect Travel Companion by Sandy Pierce

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Incredible bag that exceeds all expectations

Plenty of space without looking bulky, waterproof and stylish - this bag is a treat. I've been looking for the bag for several months; I needed something large enough to hold my work and workout clothes, food, enough small compartments and a separate padded laptop sleeve for TSA and direct access. After all, I bike to work so I needed something reflective that would fit snugly on my back. After much research I couldn't decide between Timbuk2 Especial Medio and Blink. The Especial looked great at first, but ended up being too big and its laptop sleeve too loose for my liking. I had my doubts about Blink, but they all went away as soon as I got my hands on it. Blink has the perfect laptop bag: two compartments and an internal organizer pocket for small items. The main compartment is huge and has room for everything I need and more. Now I can stop by the store on the way home and fill whatever I already have in my bag with groceries - and everything fits. The main compartment also has a large internal mesh pocket that's great for storing small items that you don't access often. Finally there is a small padded top pocket on the outside of the bag which is great for a wallet/keys. I took the blue version because it was almost half the price of the black one. It looks amazing and I probably wouldn't trade it for black right now even if I could. The material is durable and water-repellent; I haven't had a chance to survive heavy rain with it yet, but it looks like it will handle most of the rain while keeping the interior dry.

Pros
  • Well made
Cons
  • A few little things
