Timbuk2 & Threadless: Art Meets The Messenger Bag

by Dan Gould

On the collaboration front, we noticed this limited edition screen printed bag featuring the iconic Timbuk2 messenger bag and t-shirt website Threadless. Using the classic Timbuk2 messenger bag as the canvas, self taught fine artist Robert Hardgrave styled the bag with a detailed design that reflects ideas of reincarnation, disease, recovery and life after death. Act quick, there are only 200 of these, and I’m sure they’ll go in a flash.
