Whether
you're a student, teacher, or professional you're likely toting around a
laptop, smartphone, and whatever other baggage your day requires.
Finding the perfect laptop bag to store it all and show your style can
be a daunting task. The issue is compounded by the fact that since most
of these bags are sold only in online stores, you can't necessarily try
before you buy.
So, you should keep a few points in mind when looking for a
laptop bag: Make sure there are multiple photos of the bag inside and
out to help give you an idea as to how the bag is organized. Make a
point of checking the specifications of the bag. Some laptop bags may
look larger than they appear and scanning the height, width, and depth
will help you to avoid a return because your laptop won't fit. Last but
not least, consider your daily load. If you're the type who carries a
laptop on top of books and paperwork, then you may want to consider a
backpack over a tote or messenger bag.
Choosing a laptop bag is certainly subjective—what you like
depends on your taste. So we scoured the internet for a wide array of
totes, backpacks, and messengers that will all hold some manner of
laptop. Hopefully one of them might catch your eye. But more than
anything, this slideshow o' bags is to help introduce you to new
companies and see what kind of styles are out there.
