TLDR

The Monster Truck is the biggest multipurpose tote that we think is reasonable for someone to carry. It's a great tote for when the universe tasks you with carrying a lot of stuff. 

  • Thoughtful design: With three open-top compartments, loading and organizing your essentials becomes a breeze. Center compartment boasts a sewn-in plastic stiffener for stability and shape retention
  • Smart storage: The Monster Truck doesn't compromise on storage. Front and back pockets provide dedicated spaces for stowing away your tablet, book, or other quick-access items
  • Comfortable carry: Equipped with handles made with PORON® foam padding for extra comfort

Full Description

3 Open-Top Compartments

The Monster Truck has three open-top compartments. They are easy and intuitive to load up and will likely swallow more than you expect.

The center compartment is stabilized by a sewn-in piece of plastic stiffener. We recommend storing your heaviest items in this compartment, such as jugs of milk or other chunky items from your grocery run. If you're using this as a laundry bag, we think the Monster Truck could absorb a week's worth of laundry. The side compartments are almost equally as capacious as the center compartment. If you're using the Monster Truck as your gym bag, this is a perfect place to fit a large pair of shoes.

There are two O-rings, one of which includes a Key Strap, located in the center compartment and one O-ring in each side compartment. For additional organization, you can add our pouches onto any of these four O-rings.

Exterior Open-Top Front and Back Pockets

Situated on either side of the center compartment, the front and back pockets are perfect for storing a larger tablet or book. You could also slip an average 13" laptop or the big iPad Pro in either pocket as well, though whether that's a good idea or not (there's no padding or secure closure) is up to you.

PORON® Foam-Padded Handles

Like our other carryall tote bags, the Monster Truck has comfortable PORON® foam-padded handles. The handles remain the same length as the Truck so you can still carry it over your shoulder, or directly in your hand if you're on the taller side.

What's Included

8" Snaphook/Snaphook Key Strap

As with most of our bags, we've included a key strap. 8" long from tip-to-tip, a snaphook on either end. Good for attaching your keys to.

What's Optional

Since the Monster Truck is a large open tote with simple compartments, it's the perfect bag for adding your own modular organization, if you want. We recommend taking a look at our collection of organizational bags.

    What you need in NYC!

    Let’s face it — living in New York City comes with its challenges. One of the biggest? Grocery shopping. Unlike others who can simply load their groceries into the trunk of a car, we New Yorkers have to carry everything home — often by foot or via an expensive cab ride or subway.

    I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect bag that could handle my food shopping without hassle, and I can confidently say: the Tom Bihn Monster Truck is the best solution out there.

    It folds down surprisingly compact, yet opens up to a generous capacity. The three separate compartments are a game changer — perfect for organizing and protecting delicate or breakable items. Even when fully loaded, it sits comfortably on my shoulder.

    This bag is not only durable and well-designed, but also full of thoughtful details that clearly reflect quality craftsmanship.

    It may be a bit more than other bags, but it’s worth every penny.

    Overcomplicated

    I was looking for a better beach bag, that could also flex as heavy duty grocery shopping bag, and didn't just sit unused in the closet during the colder months. The Monster Truck just has a lot going on. The way it divides space is not intuitive. The handles do not stay on the shoulder at all. It is definitely meant to be carried by hand; which makes the handle length very awkward. I thought it would be more like a tote bag, but it just isn't that.

Sewn in Seattle

Our bags are designed and sewn right here in Seattle, Washington, U.S.A.

That allows us to be control freaks in the best way possible; we have direct control and oversight of the quality of our materials, our products, and the jobs and working environment that we help create. It also offers us a unique spontaneity: when we have an idea for a new product or accessory, we can design it, figure out how to build it, add it to our website and be ready to ship it out our front door all within just a few weeks. How cool is that?

Intrigued? You can find out more about the unusual way we do business on our Company Philosophy page.

If something goes wrong and it's our fault, we'll fix it for free. Repairs due to normal wear and tear or due to other things that are not our fault will be performed, when possible, at a reasonable charge right here in our Seattle factory where your bag was made.
