Tom Bihn: The Archetype

Posted on October 18, 2006 Under Travel


When the MacBook Pro’s came out, our friends over at Tom Bihn were the first to the scene with a stylish, functional and properly-sized laptop case. The larger size and additional .2 inches of the MacBook Pro’s width quickly turned my entire laptop case collection from my previous Power Book’ completely obsolete. This case, The Arechtype, is uniquely fitted with ‘Genuine Cork Fabric’ (it’s much more believable than you can see in any photograph) still remains one of our favorites. I’m often stopped with it asking if it’s real wood. Splash proof zippers, molded plastic handles and 8mm of dense, closed-cell foam keeps your Macbook protected to the max. Made in Seattle, Tom Bihn continues to impress us with awesome bags, superior customer service and fabulous attention to detail.
