Fan Mail: Rastafari

The Timbuk2 rasta messenger is a classic. In February, we launched a ready-made rasta messenger for the first time in years, possibly decades. But we’ve always (always) offered rasta colors in our customizer and we see rasta bags come off the line in our San Francisco factory every week.

Our beloved local sales rep, Dom, has very cool kids, but we have a soft spot for his oldest daughter Emma. She’s a born-and-raised in San Francisco rasta.

Earth mama Emma.
Irie Emma

How many rastas do you know who can type and be irie at the same time?
Smart Emma

Rasta Sleeve

An earth mama with a rasta’s natural affinity for the islands, Emma’s first tattoo is in the native Hawaiian tongue. Her dad Dom documented this irie moment for Emma.

The final product is a sensitive message in a sensitive spot. “Keiki o ka aina.” Hawaiian for “Children of the land.”

Emma is moving to Maui where she’ll continue to make us proud misty morning after mellow mood. Mahalo. Jah!
