If you are a travel-centric gamer who is always on the go trying to carry multiple equipment in one bag and failing miserably, Astro Gaming and Timbuk2 have just the right products for you.
The video gaming equipment brand and the premium bag manufacturer came together to develop a line of durable, multi-functional and stylish bags meant to meet the needs of the gamers.
The Timbuk2 x ASTRO Collection consists of two products at the moment – the BP35 Gaming Backpack and the CS03 Crossbody Sling, both of which are available for purchase at www.astrogaming.com and www.timbuk2.com.
Aron Drayer, Vice President of Marketing for ASTRO Gaming appreciated the collab saying that both Astro Gaming and Timbuk2, which were born in San Francisco, know the highs and lows of a start-up brand.
Drayer further said that given that their journeys mimic each other, both the brands share similar philosophies that enable the creation of functional products that cater to the needs of all the consumers and stand through the test of times.
While Astro is known for its quality video gaming equipment, Timbuk2 has time and time stood out with their premium-quality gear and the bespoke design.
The reason behind the collaboration was to enable gamers have a comfortable journey while carrying important and expensive gaming equipment. Both the BP35 Gaming Backpack and the CS03 Crossbody Sling support easy portability without complications.
The products are constructed with high-quality fabrics, which are water-resistant and come with padded pockets for extra safety.
Besides that, the Timbuk2 x ASTRO Collection also prioritizes organization, thanks to the bunch of additional storage pockets, quick attach anchor points along with stretch mesh for keeping the smaller items secure.
Both the products also come with adjustable air mesh straps and quick release buckles for a comfortable user experience.
Let us walk you through the individual features of each product for better insights.
