    Hi,

    My wife is in the market for a nice but simple laptop backpack. She really needs something very feminine and simple. Price range, no more than $50. Also, it has to be a backpack designed for laptops..

    I was looking at Sumdex Nicole line. They look very sleek.

    I am also looking at the JanSport here, but I do not know if the protection is good enough, also Jansport is not so much on the Tech side, I wonder if they are good.

    I would like to know if anyone has the Nicole one, and if there are other brands/models around... It is a little hard to find those specific backpacks (remember, it has to be feminine and made for notebooks and simple design)

    Thanks so much,

    It needs to be feminine? I'm not sure I can be much help since I've never looked for a feminine backpack.
    What size is her notebook?

    Look at the Links to Bag Makers, Dealers and Reviews topic if you haven't done so already. You might be able to find some good backpacks there. Sorry I can't be much help.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the link... yeah.. feminine... that is the key, it has to look like it was made for women, not just a generic black backpack, etc... those Sumdex Nicole are great because I would never used them myself as a man :) this is kind of the idea.

    She has a Mackbook 13"

    Thanks for the bag makers index link that is a good starting point!

    Hi ! I got it, it is great, my wifes really loves it, it is very simple, nothing fancy in terms of design, BUT that makes it look and feel great. Very girly and easy on the back for smaller notebooks. Here you can see many models and pictures of it. But, as with all products on the internet, you have to see it live to really enjoy it.
