Timbuk2 Classic Messenger Bag | Black + Blue | LucasFilm Branded From a dream to a sketch to a bag. And now ... an icon. It’s been over 30 years since our first messenger hit the streets in 1989, and we’re moving its legendary design forward. From cleverly subtle to markedly substantial, every feature on our Classic Messenger Bag offers a better way to wear it, protect it and organize it.
