Description

Protect your device with the slim, 0.25" thick foam-padded Cache sleeve, designed to fit easily in many TOM BIHN backpacks, briefcases, and travel bags.

The Cache features a high-density foam core that offers superior protection from bumps and scratches, while maintaining a lightweight, low-profile design. The foam is laminated with a durable polyester knit exterior and a soft, brushed tricot interior for a premium feel and extra cushioning. This protective layer ensures your device stays safe without adding unnecessary bulk.

The sleeve’s #5 YKK zipper with plastic sliders prevents scratches and wraps around the sides for easy access in both portrait and landscape orientations. It’s designed to work seamlessly in both vertically-oriented and horizontally-oriented bags, making it versatile for different carrying setups.

The Cache includes rail loops and removable Gatekeeper Rail Clips, allowing it to securely attach to compatible TOM BIHN bags for quick and easy laptop removal while still inside the sleeve.

The following bags have built-in rail loops for you to clip your Cache via the Gatekeeper clips:
Briefcases: Cadet, Daylight Briefcase, Pilot
Backpacks: Brain Bag, Synapse 19, Synapse 25, Synik 22, Synik 26, and Synik 30 
Travel Bags: Tri-Star and Western Flyer

And, of course, as long as it’ll fit, you can use the Cache in a non-TOM BIHN bag.

    Great padding

    Worth it for laptop protection. Just enough padding, and being able to support it against the bag's stay, is critical. Could be a bit more fitted to make & model, but brilliant nonetheless.

    Sigh there where more sizes!!!

    Had to go with the bigger cache to protect my iPad mini. Love the quality and craftsmanship, it just takes up more room in my bag than it needs to.

    Almost perfect

    I added this cache to my bag for my iPad, but I didn’t, have a good way to assess whether or not my attached keyboard would also fit. It does not, and I’ve found a good way to fit everything into my bag, but an indication of which “laptop” size of cache would best fit an iPad Pro with its Magic Keyboard attached would be super helpful when ordering.

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.

THE BIHN Guarantee

Everything you buy from us here at TOM BIHN is satisfaction guaranteed. We’ve been in business since 1972 and we stand behind what we make.

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. Defects in materials or workmanship are uncommon and almost always evident while the product is still new. Keep in mind that bags and packs are often subject to extreme wear in everyday use: do not expect them to last forever. Only true love lasts forever! You can expect a TOM BIHN product to give years and years of hard service.
