Timbuk2 affiliate program

Founded in San Francisco in 1989, Timbuk2 sells custom messenger bags to bike shops. Their product offering has grown to include luggage and laptop bags. This program offers a 27-day cookie duration.

Timbuk2 offers durable backpacks, messengers, and travel bags designed for urban life. With smart storage, premium materials, and a lifetime warranty, our gear blends style and function. From daily commutes to adventures, the perfect bag exists here.

Timbuk2 is a San Francisco original, founded in a garage in 1989 by a bike messenger named Rob Honeycutt and have continuously manufactured in the city’s Mission District ever since. Rob made products that served his needs as a messenger, but it was never that simple. Timbuk2 brought customization to the masses, selling custom messengers to bike shops in the 90′s and launching the first online customizer in 1999. Timbuk2's product offering has grown to include luggage and laptop bags, but the made in San Francisco custom messenger remains its iconic style and the heart and soul of the company.
