Jimmy's Bag

Post by MargaritaMatt »

I have been searching for the perfect bag for a while. And every time I seem to find one, after 6 months it loses its appeal for some reason or another. I know Jimmy has been in search of the perfect bag for a while like I have. I have heard him talk about it a few times in books and interviews. Any idea what he is using? Anyone have a good bag out there they use that they recommend?

I am looking for something that I can take to work, travel with on the weekends, just an all round bag to keep the computer in sometimes, snacks in other times, books, ect.

I have two bags that I use alternately. For traveling I have a back pack with secure deep pockets with zippers. I use that as my carry on, and it holds my camera, Sammie's dog food and dish, emergency items in case my checked luggage is misplaced, and any breakable items that I might buy. I've had this back pack for 6 months, and it is holding up very well. I bought it at Walmart.

Then I have a toat bag that I bought at a Jimmy Buffett show last summer. It is great for hauling my bottled water and my sheet music that I use at church. It has great handles on it for carrying it on my shoulder. The only thing I wish it had was zippers, but it works fine for what I use it for.

It's the child in us we really value

Here is my old bag. You can't fit much in it. Hard to carry. Does not fit in the overhead bin.

You should check the Timbuk2 website. I bought a synthetic ballistic bag there a few years ago and beat it around New Zealand and Australia (I actually abused this bag) and it looks as good as the day I bought it. Very good product.
