Mark your calendars: Timbuk2, everyone’s longtime favorite messenger bag maker, is planting its roots right here in Denver with its third retail store. Join 303 Magazine in commemorating Timbuk2’s  newest Larimer Square location this Saturday for the public grand opening celebration.

Timbuk2, a San Francisco-bred company, was founded in 1989 by bike messenger Rob Honeycutt in a Mission District garage.  Timbuk2’s designs are built to last a lifetime, from bags, packs and accessories to their original bike messenger bag.

“The relentless drive to inspire urban mobility, enable individuality and promote responsibility has propelled Timbuk2 forward as it continues fusing passion and style to create durable, functional products informed by the company’s longstanding cycling roots and today’s vibrant city landscape.”
