A made in SF Timbuk2 bag was (and is?) the ultimate laptop bag.

Vintage ones, maybe. Timbuk2 has been slowly moving their manufacturing overseas.

Rickshaw Bagworks is the made in SF successor from the previous Timbuk2 CEO.

Good to know. I know they shifted some production, but it wasn't clear to me if the custom ones were still made in SF, and if the non-custom bags were made in SF any time in the last 15 years.

That'll be good to know in 30 years when I need to replace my Timbuk2 bag.
