TravisMathew Lateral Convertible Backpack TMB106

Custom Embroidered TravisMathew Lateral Convertible Backpack TMB106

The TravisMathew Lateral Convertible Backpack TMB106 is a water-resistant 100% poly mini ripstop bag that carries as a backpack or converts to a briefcase when the straps unhook and tuck into the luggage trolley pass-through. It measures 19"h x 12"w x 5.5"d, about 1,254 cubic inches. Consultants, outside sales teams and executives buy it for travel. Wholesale Caps and Embroidery embroiders it in-house at our Houston, TX facility, decorating since 1979.

Embroidery leads here, and placement deserves a thought: because this bag is carried two ways, we usually stitch the logo so it reads upright in briefcase orientation, which is how it is seen in a client meeting. Front panel is standard. Screen print and DTF are also offered. All decoration is produced in our Houston shop, never brokered out.

Why Buyers Pick It

Two bags, one purchase order. The people you are outfitting do not want to look like a student walking into a boardroom, and they do not want to hand-carry a briefcase through an airport — the Lateral Convertible ends that argument by unhooking the straps and tucking them away in about five seconds. For a travelling sales force that means one branded bag covers the flight, the trolley handle and the client meeting. It is the practical choice when your team's bag is going to be seen by customers.

Sizing

One size, OSFA, offered in Black and Graphite. The relevant measurements are 19"h x 12"w x 5.5"d and approximately 1,254 cubic inches, with a laptop sleeve of 16"h x 11.5"w x 1"d that fits most 16-inch laptops. What genuinely varies here is configuration rather than size: backpack or briefcase, straps out or stowed, trolley pass-through in use or not. No minimum applies — a single piece is orderable.

How to Order

Pick your colors, tell us the quantity, and send your logo in any format you have. There is no minimum on this bag — order a single piece for one person or a pallet for a full rollout, and mix colors however you like.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the TravisMathew Lateral Convertible Backpack TMB106?
It is a water-resistant 100% poly mini ripstop bag that converts between backpack and briefcase carry, 19"h x 12"w x 5.5"d and about 1,254 cubic inches. Wholesale Caps and Embroidery is a decorator — we embroider your logo onto the TMB106 in-house at our Houston, TX facility.

Is there a minimum order?
There is no minimum. You can order a single piece — one bag for one new hire is a real order here, not a special favor. Mix colors and mix in other decorated apparel with no quantity tier to hit. Caps are the one exception in our catalog: those start at 12 pieces. Everything else, including this bag, ships from one.

How does the conversion work and how much does it hold?
The backpack straps unhook and tuck into the integrated luggage trolley pass-through, leaving a padded side handle for briefcase carry. Capacity is roughly 1,254 cubic inches in a 19"h x 12"w x 5.5"d body, with a 16"h x 11.5"w x 1"d laptop sleeve that fits most 16-inch laptops.

Which orientation should the logo face?
We recommend stitching so the logo reads upright when the bag is carried as a briefcase, since that is the client-facing position; it still reads correctly on the back panel in backpack mode. We will show both views on the free digital mockup and you choose before we sew.

Do you keep my artwork for reorders?
Yes. We digitize your logo once and keep the embroidery file on our server permanently. Reorders skip setup entirely — email us the style number and the quantity and we run it stitch-for-stitch identical to the first batch, however many months later.

Can I outfit a whole team across products?
Yes. Run the same digitized logo on dress shirts, polos and other bags and coolers. Caps can join the same order — caps are the only category that starts at 12 pieces; this bag has no floor.

How fast can I get them?
Production is 7–10 business days from the moment you approve your digital mockup. Proofs usually go out within one business day of receiving artwork. Rush service is available on request — tell us your in-hands date when you send the order and we will confirm whether we can hit it. Free ground shipping on most orders.

1. After your order is placed, we enter it into our system and send an "Artwork & Mockup Approval" email within 24-36 hours. This is to verify design, design placement, size, and product colors.
2. Once you approve the artwork mockup, we create the .dst file (stitch file). This file is used to tell our embroidery machines what to stitch. Note: Cancellation after this step incurs a $30 restocking fee.
3. We create a sewout and/or update the mockup using the .dst file and send it to you for approval. It's at this point where you want to make sure all colors, size, and placement are as requested.
4. You may request changes to the same design before sewout and/or .dst approval. A completely new design request at this stage incurs a $30 fee.
5. After final approval, production begins. Once items are decorated, the order is non-refundable unless there is a defect in the product or decoration.

A $30 setup fee is automatically added to the cart and required for all orders. This covers the order processing costs.
