An email blast this morning comes from Timbuk2 announcing their brand-new Dolores Cooler messenger bag. It’s a bit of a hybrid messenger bag monster complete with ballistic nylon exterior, waterproof TPU inner lining, a main pocket zipper closing, and even a handy bottle opener! The lining on the inside is fully insulated and can hold up to 12 cans of beer. As with all insulated bags, this one here can also keep stuff hot and toasty as well — you just have to judge whether or not you want something burning your back while you walk around.

I quite like this new bag from Timbuk2. It only comes in this red, white, and blue color variation and costs $110.

So I went to the MISHKA biannual sale today with Yelena and picked up some goodies that were very cheap. The line wasn’t very long but the wait to get inside was so ridiculously long because people were staying inside the store so long to get the most of the cheap deals. We waited nearly 3 hours in the cold and our toes were about to fall off by the time we got inside.
But after a good wait, we got in and it was like a grab bag. Huge buckets of clothes, jackets, hats, and knits for super-cheap. Good experience, but man, I wished it was summer today.
