Horrible customer service and extremely unfriendly and unwelcoming male employees. Female employee very competent and friendly. Male didn't even know their products. Rarely had such a horrible shopping experience as in this store. I recommend the factory store. Far friendlier and more competent peop...

Selection was poor. There were no shop specials despite being a physical shop. Prices and promotions followed online website pricing. Friend got a bag from them only to realise that Sports Basement had the same identical bag for $10 cheaper. Made a purchase myself and they didn't have carrier bags f...

Used to love Timbuk2 laptop bags, not a lot of lately. This is their primary location. Very conveniently located in hayes valley. Close to a lot of restaurants and smitten's ice cream spot. Small store but offers choices to look around. Tip: they carry stuffed cases or fake weights to stuff in your ...

A cool space in Hayes Valley to check out. The bags are of awesome quality and you can customized them to your own liking. Everyone is friendly and helpful and if you have any issues, they are more than willing to make you a happy camper. Support a great local company!

Everyone knows Timbuk2 makes great messenger bags. I was happy to find their retail sales people backed that up with great service and a super-friendly attitude. They even offered suggestions for dinner in the neighborhood. (Straw SF was terrific, by the way ... thanks, girls!)

I was looking to buy a backpack and really excited to find on their website they have a promotion. Since they have store in SF, it's much quicker to visit the store. I sent an email asking if they have the same promo in store without expecting a reply next. Jared, I believe he is the store manager, ...

Just bought a bag here. A small store but they have lots of bags on display and the service is friendly and knowledgeable. Timbuk2 makes great stuff so this is a good place to go if you really want to try out the gear rather than order online. Timbuk2 bags are not cheap so if you're like me you will...

Overall, I had a great experience purchasing my bag. I showed up 10 min before the store was going to close and the clerk lady was very helpful. She allowed me to put all my belongs that I normally carry inside the bad to see if it fits and was very informative on the design and function of each b...

Great selection of top quality bags. The staff really knows the ins and outs of every model as well...I was very impressed with how well they knew minute differences between similar models. I opted for the Command TSA-friendly backpack. It has lots of creative pockets and keeps my Macbook very safe.

Terrific store and company!

Terrific store and company!

Had a carry-on bag for several years that suffered a failure with the telescoping handle - brought the bag into the store and they immediately honored the lifetime guarantee. In and out in about 10 minutes. They have a lifetime customer, as a result!

Very helpful, and patient. Walked in wanted a messenger bag, came out realizing I had other incredible option of a back up that you could use every day and use when you are dressed up. Fit my laptop, and the perfect size. I love my bag...all thanks to the manager and staff at the San Francisco store...

Timbuk2, oh Timbuk2, how could anyone dislike your locally-made ethics and your TSA friendly bags? Too bad you're located on a particularly trendy block in Hayes Valley, and thus are perpetually swarming with people. Granted, I came on a Saturday afternoon, which by all accounts is tourist-primetime...

Awesome spot to check out designs, type of fabrics and colors.
They may not have everything available but you can definitely get a sense of what you want.
I actually ended up buying something way different then what I thought I wanted.
Easy going rep too!

One of the most amazing shops out there. They show all the awesome bags that are available. Also if you ever have an issue with a timbuk2 bag they will address it immediately and quickly. They even replaced a piece of the bag that broke.

As part of a healthy transition to San Francisco life, I bought a messenger bag from Tumbuk2 a couple years back. Great quality, excellent customer service. This year I upgraded to a briefcase and received a credit for trading in my own bag. Last month I stopped by and bought a carryon duffel. Same ...

First off, I LOVE the Timbuk2 bags!! I've had one for about 10 years and use it most every day. I now need a new, larger one to fit my new laptop. I went into the Hayes Street Store and had an awful experience. One of the sales people was worse than the other...but both were less than helpful......

If you have a Timbuk2 fetish, but have never taken the time to see the place, it's a must. While it's just a tiny shop in the heart of Hayes Valley, it packs a lot of stuff. There's probably one of everything they make, and a chance to try it one, carry it around or just check it out in person. If ...

I waited a shameful amount of time before seeking a return on a defected product. The person who helped me at the store came through though in every way. I was able to replace my backpack with another and walked out with my new pack like a kid starting her first day of school.

Awesome customer service - I came in to ask purchasing velcro strips for a bag I ordered that didn't include them. They gave me a set on the spot. I have two of their messenger bags that have both traveled more than 70,000 miles with me over the last two years - in Arctic and desert camping situati...

I first discovered Timbuk2 at a garage sale. I found a purse for $5 and immediately fell in love with the durability and the usefullness of it. Then I happened to be eating at Stacks on Hayes and notices the store so of course I wandered in. Sticker shock hit me immediately! Yes, these bags are ...
