///M Stripe Colors on a Custom Timbuk2 Bag? :)

unyi3lding · 04-27-2011, 12:06 PM

Hi everyone,

I'm due for a new messenger bag. The one I carry to work has been with me since pre-college, and it's about to give out any day now... I was looking at the custom configurator on the Timbuk2 website and came up with this :P

What do you guys think? Silly? Or something that BMW drivers would secretly know/understand?

That is pretty sick. I used to have one that was the German flag colors.

Ugly as hell.

You would be better off getting one with an //m emblem on it. That one look pretty gay

haha, I was going for a subtle look; something that BMW enthusiasts can see on the streets and silently give a nod of approval to... maybe if there was a way to slant the color bars so they are more similar to the /// stripes? or maybe a way to tone down the flamboyant colors..

looks like the only way to achieve this might be a complete DIY/custom job...

I think slapping the ///M logo on there instantly turns you into a tool bag and repels non-petrolheads (remember the all-too-famous quote "M3 drivers have no friends"?)

But save yourself the embarrassment

get blue white blue and then hang an M3 keychain off of one of the zippers. Much more classy.
