Our take on the toiletries kit. In two versions: Standard and Deluxe. The Spiff Kit is the TB take on the ubiquitous toiletries kit. Though we suppose that a spartan few will live off the land and use whatever the hotel washroom offers up, most of us seem to prefer our unique collection of personal essentials for even the shortest of trips. For some of us that’s our favorite flavor of toothpaste or Dr. Bronner's soap (and, well, if Dr. Bronner’s is your favorite toothpaste, we're not sure what to say...); for others it's a refined collection of vitamins or cosmetics.

Why the Mystery? Each Organizer Pouch is made out of fabrics leftover from our cutting process (and possibly some rare, retired, or unreleased fabrics). Rather than let these scraps go to waste, we have decided to repurpose them into fun, mystery pouches. The colorway is only revealed to you when you unbox your order. It's a padded flat organizer pouch in Mini or Small (your choice) with a #5 YKK zipper. Some things might match, but nothing is guaranteed to. You might get a Olive Cordura binding, purple trim. Or you might get Wasabi Cordura binding and Moss trim.

A compact, go-anywhere crossbody that keeps your essentials organized on the move. The main compartment of the Everyday Cubelet zips open and shut with a #5 YKK zipper with a plastic slider. One side of the Everyday Cubelet is clean without any exterior pockets. The other side features a zippered pocket: the zipper sits at a slight angle, which allows it to open a tad more than if it sat horizontally—plus, it adds a bit of style (in our humble opinion). That extra zipper length makes it a little easier to see inside of the pocket, or wiggle objects (like a phablet) in there.

A duffel gym bag with a timeless touch—the TOM BIHN Old School Carry-All is built to go anywhere. Back in the 90's, Tom designed The Classic Sport Bag in answer to customers' requests for a bag to take to the gym.Though it was well-loved by many customers, there was some legitimate feedback about the Sport Bag that Tom has taken to heart: specifically, folks wanted separate and substantial compartments to segregate and/or organize their stuff.

Dual-sided mesh pouch—taming your snakes... we mean cords. A handy organizer pouch with two mesh-sided compartments. Originally designed to utilize the space above our Horizontal Brain Cell laptop case inside of the Brain Bag backpack , over time the Snake Charmer has become hugely popular with folks who have neither. The Snake Charmer has two separate compartments with #5 YKK zippers; both sides of the Snake Charmer are heavy-weight mesh, allowing you to easily see what's inside.
