    A friend bought a bag from Mission Workshop, they look great. And similar to Timbuk2, local and lifetime guarantee. http://missionworkshop.com/products/bags/backpacks/

    I would have jumped on one myself but because of Timbuk2's guarantee, haven't really purchased a new backpack in a while. The last one that broke, I ended up replacing it with a Especial Medio. But I loved the line so much, I bought the larger one too and eventually gave it to my cousin. http://www.timbuk2.com/especial-medio-cycling-backpack/435.html

    Hah, this is great. I remember when Eastpak and Jansport were all the rage. #showingmyage

    Performance suffers a bit (but most likely because I left the site up for a while and have a gazillion tabs). More importantly... I left the site up for a while because I couldn't stop interacting with it. Lovely site. For such a... mundane product category, amazing amount of effort and care. And really appreciate the write-up!
