SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (January 7, 2015) – Timbuk2, the original San Francisco gear company for urban adventures near and far, challenges city dwellers to slow down this Fall 2015 and let loose with 23 new and updated styles from three collections best suited for hanging around town, at the park or on a hike. The Weekend Collection encompasses three new lines, Sunset, Skyline and Classic, each built to last, encourage adventure and stand out with stylish colors and fabrics. This collection will be shown for the first time at OR Winter Market at booth #28027. 

“The Weekend Collections were a no brainer for us,” said Director of Product and Design, Greg Bass. “San Francisco is such an active city where you can guarantee if the sun’s out, so are the people. Therefore it’s important to design collections that are versatile and functional but also light and casual. We’re really proud of what the Weekend Collections will offer our customers.”

Born and bred in San Francisco, Timbuk2 has continuously evolved its products to meet the demands of city life for over 25 years. The company introduced the Weekend Collection to suit the needs of its customers at large.
