Normally I’m wouldn’t bother announcing one new color introduction for bags, but since I posted about Tom Bihn’s two new colors and mentioned that the made-in-America bag manufacturer was teasing us about yet another color announcement today, I thought I’d spread the word: Tom Bihn’s newest ballistic nylon color, announced today, is forest green.

Over the weekend, I was trying to guess what color they might announce. Purple? Burgundy? Tan?

Oddly enough, I hadn’t thought of forest green, and looking at the samples in the blog post, I think I know why: The color just seems like such a natural fit for Tom Bihn bags, that my subsconscious must’ve thought they already had this color! It’s really beautiful, and I think they’ve outdone themselves. Like the new cardinal color they introduced last week, this green is deep, rich, and elegant. It should easily work for business travelers as well as the vacationer.
