Know before you buy
The bag features stow-away buckles that allow you to tuck the backpack straps securely into a dedicated compartment. Once the straps are hidden, you can carry the bag comfortably by its top handles as a professional tote.
Swing-around access allows you to rotate the bag from your back to your front without taking it off. This provides quick, one-handed access to your essentials while you are on the move.
With dimensions of 13.8 x 5.1 x 20.1 inches, the Alamo is spacious enough for daily commuting gear, a laptop, and personal items. Its slim profile keeps it from feeling bulky, though it is best suited for standard-sized devices and everyday carry.
The leather trims add a premium touch but require standard leather care. We recommend using a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and wiping away any moisture or dirt with a soft, dry cloth.
Yes, the interior is lined with a premium fabric and includes a dedicated in-pocket key keeper. This helps you secure your keys so they are always easy to locate, even when the bag is full.
Timbuk2’s warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for three years from the date of purchase. It ensures that the bag remains functional under normal use, excluding typical wear and tear or accidental damage.
