WICHITA, KS, January 22, 2011

Timbuk2 and INVISTA's CORDURA brand team launch the new Timbuk2 Custom Messenger Bag, featuring CORDURA Denim Fabric. Based on an intimate blend of cotton and INVISTA's T420 nylon 6,6 staple fiber, CORDURA Denim fabric retains the authentic look and feel of traditional 100 percent cotton denim, with added abrasion resistance and long-lasting durability.

Available for viewing at both the Timbuk2 (#34174) and CORDURA brand booth (#39210), the Timbuk2 "Customize a Bag" option featuring CORDURA Denim fabric includes a memory adjust Cam Buckle that allows the wearer to click on/off for a consistent fit, a sneaky side entry Napolean Pocket with zipper closure, and an Interior Slash Pocket that is perfect for document storage.

"This Timbuk2 messenger bag, featuring CORDURA Denim fabric, proves you can marry style and long-lasting durability for a trendy, yet functional accessory," said Greg Bass, Timbuk2 director of product and design. "We are thrilled to collaborate with INVISTA's CORDURA brand team to create a product with their innovative durable denim technology."
