Laptop bag recommendation.

[Pondlife]

In the market for a new laptop bag as the zip on mine is knackered. What does the discerning contractor use these days?

I used to have Crumpler messenger style but then got a Wenger rucksack. Noting requiring wheels please.

TIA

I know this isn't really 'Technical' but General is a bit of a tw@fest at the mo.

This is my current one:

Enough room for an overnight stay, light and comfortable

Looks a nice bit of kit!

With a laptop can you get enough clothes in there for 3-4 days of travel?

At a push. Also depends how many bits of electronics/cables you take with you and what the dress code is. If it's jeans & T-shirts, yes you'll have room for a 4 day trip.

ok thanks.

I tend to take laptop, charger and keep other cables to min, at most a pair of running shoes along with pair of jeans, jumpers/t-shirts. I've got a samsonite hand luggage but it's a pain, if I decide to walk a couple of miles to the hotel or it's a big airport.

I've got a Swissgear one and it's been solid for years now. Tons of options and prices so I'd say check them out.

What size laptop do you have?

Current Backpack

I have taken this thing round the world many times over in the past few years for work and would recommend it. Comfortable and like a Tardis as I frequently carry 1-2 laptops (14/15", a tablet plus the usual chargers, USB drives and cables).

I have a Leather Visconti Messenger Bag, bought in 7 years ago and still looks the part, holds up to daily use and fits in everything I need (I only have a 13" MacBook), buy cheap and you will always buy twice
