- Short review and opinion on the Tom Bihn Daylight briefcase - a lightweight everyday briefcase made in the U.S.A.
Are you still reading? Right on. You should check out my camera and Moab T-shits and stickers on Redbubble: www.redbubble....
I use the Tom Bihn Aeronaut 30 for travel and am thinking of getting this bag or the cafe bag 👍 cool review! Thx
Hey thanks for the kind words! I still use this bag all the time. I quite like it. stay safe out there.
@@Strayfoto Thank you so much, you as well!
Thanks for the review! (Yes-still relevant today!) Might I ask which size Ape Case you use for your camera(s)? Cheers!
Well... I bought that one a while ago - but I think it was just called a "medium." I've since bought a large, and while it holds more stuff, I don't like it as much as the medium. And thanks for the kind words - I still use this Tom Bihn bag all the time. It's discreet and lightweight and at least semi-professional looking. You probably wouldn't take it to work as a high end banker or lawyer - but I'm neither of those.
Hey how do you like it compared to the Medium Cafe, I like your reviews but I keep bouncing back and forth between this bag, the cafe (both small and med) and the Makers bag. Looking for a bag that goes everywhere. Thanks
Ha! That's a funny question - in an earlier edit I did for this video I added a comparison segment because I have them both. The short answer is I use the Daylight Briefcase a little more. I travel a bit for work and I usually carry a notebook and some pens, a tablet and phone, and a Sony a6300 (medium size camera) and a couple GoPro cameras, and some cables and a pocket knife and some maps. I'd never fit all that into the Medium Cafe Bag. I really like the Cafe bag for walking downtown with a notebook, my phone and maybe a water bottle. For me the Cafe Bag is for the shortest of excursions. For everything else I use the Daylight Briefcase. Again, I tend to pack pretty heavy. While I don't hate the flap on the Medium Cafe bag, I don't really love it either. It's not really in the way, but the Briefcase is easier to open and look inside.
I saw your other video of the MCB. With everything you had in the MCB, will it fit in the DLBC? Can’t decide which one to get, since I need a new bag for my edc
Yeah, I think so. The DLBC is certainly a hair larger and more easily accessible. I love the Cafe Bag so much, but I'm not sure why? For a journal and a small camera it's fine, but I find the flap somewhat bothersome. It's not bad, and if you lived in Seattle or somewhere else rainy I can see the flap being advantageous. I think the DLBC is more useable - for me anyway. It fits a tablet better and stuff is easier to get to by virtue of the zipper top and horizontal layout. I'm a chronic over packer though - so that may sway my opinion a little.
Does it have any organizational features in the dual-sided pocket? I have a cafe bag but my 13 inch laptop won't quite fit well and I'm thinking about this as an alternative.
I'm the main interior pocket? No. Just the semi-floating divider. I have a 14" laptop that won't fit, but I often look at the Dell 13" and wonder if it would. If it fit, this would be a pretty slick little computer bag.
What pants are those?
No idea. But, being me, I assume they're from a thrift store - that's pretty much my standard run. Buy them baggy and alter them myself.
