Front of new custom Timbuk2 "Swig" backpack
This is the color I actually got ("slate blue" on the Timbuk2 website) This is what I thought I was getting: Bagbuilder screenshot (more of a turquoise, much more vivid.)
This is actually closer to what I think of as "slate blue", but it isn't what the website appeared to show, not even within the realm of monitor variation.
I know custom items are sort of a "let the buyer beware" situation, and I'm sure I'll get used to it, but I would be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed.
