    I have a (15-in) Ferrari 3000 and I want to find a backpack that will fit in a boardroom setting. Too many of them look like something a skateboarder would use and that won't cut it for this application.

    I would like to get a leather one, but most of those have unpadded straps and are really uncomfortable.

    If you know of something that looks upscale and is well padded, please let me know.
    thanks

    I had the same problem and ended up with the Victorinox WebSak (2.0). Sleek black finish, very functional, professional appeal. http://www.swissarmytravelgear.com/webstore/moreinfo.cfm?product_id=2549&category=130l.

    The Jansport Optimizer is a nice choice. You could also consider www.booqbags.com.
