Stylish laptop rucksack

13 replies

BadgerFace · 31/07/2021 17:55

We’ve moved to hot desking and are having to carry laptops to and from work now. The Dell rucksack I have been given is a) hideous and b) designed for a 20 inch gaming laptop when mine is about 11 inches so is massive. I like to travel as light as possible but also appreciate I probably need something supportive to save on back pain…

Any suggestions?

Following as Ive also been given an oversized Dell rucksack, and would like something that fits my 14 inch laptop a bit better.

There a recent thread on this. I'm happy with my Knomo and Sandkvist.

DS has a lovely Lululemon backpack that he uses for school which holds his laptop. It was quite expensive but he's had it a few years and still lols like mew.

Check out the Ally Capellini Hoy rucksacks - the mini size is good. I have several...but if an addiction!

I understood Fjallraven were very good at helping to avoid back pain, is it worth looking at what they do?

I recently gave in and realised I needed a backpack. I got the Siena from Nordace. I'm actually pleased with it, it looks much nicer than a lot of laptop backpacks and I've even had multiple compliments on it.

They sit very nicely on your back, but I think mine is too casual looking for work. I tend to use it on holiday or day trips.

Eastpak Casyl looks like a good bet. I have one from Accessorize which smarter but heavier and is a few years old and one from Cath Kidston (which is no everyone’s cup of tea) which is lighter but more casual
