I am pretty close to buying a Folee XL from booq but wondering if anyone has any firsthand experience or reviews. Found two reviews on the web with pretty positive feedback. I travel a fair amount and work in a pretty conservative environment so though I think waterfield and tom bihn bags would be cool, probably need to stick to more conformist...er.. traditional style.
Thanks!

Don Corazon, i dont have the exact model but i have the Powersleeve XXL
i like the construction and detail. it is a nice make.
i did find that the padding is about 1/4" but i guess any more will be bulky.
being a HUGE lappy, i decided to go for the small bag.
detial is nice, the orange pop is cute.
wish it had rubber feet/bumper/padding at the bottom of the bags tho. -
I use the Folee XL to haul around my Sager 9750 along with all of its accessories. The bag just barely fits the laptop, and with all the accessories, it is practically stuffed full. I originally ordered the FoleeMessenger17, and the FoleeXL is actually considerably smaller than the Messenger.
The bag is quality! Solid material, strong zipper, strong strap. I'm happy with the bag, but honestly, I could have gone with a slightly bigger bag (if one exists). I've refused to research as to whether a bigger/better bag exists for fear of becoming discontent with what I have. -
Thanks that's helpful. I'd be using it for an XPS 1710. Also, I'd probably use it on ocassion without the laptop (e.g. just to throw in a few clothes for an overnight trip). Based on the photos, it doesn't look as useful for this latter purpose as something like the Tom Bihn Superego. From what I can tell the Folee XL looks like mostly a laptop compartment and a lot of small pouches. Nevertheless, it is still number one on my list given the criteria of being able to bring it to a business meeting with bankers, lawyers, etc. and I like the fact that it, according to one review, doesn't have a ton of buckles and velcro.
