any one know what is the best brand for backpack and sleeves??

I am thinking buy a backpack and a sleeve for my 17' widescreen laptop, this is my first time buying this kinda of stuff so i totally hv no idea about it, any one can give some recommendation??? thx

 

Targus has a high reputation in making good, solid backpacks...check them out.

 

really appreciate, while some one told me that the backpack's internal design should fit the laptop model, my laptop is Fujistu N6460,so how is that?? and how about the sleeve??

 

Kensington, Samsonite & Tom Bihn are all reputable manufacturers.

 

My vote for Waterford, very responsive and good looking sleeves and bags. sfbags.com

 

I'm pleased with my Booq.

 

I really like my belkon NE sleeve/carry case!. its light can fit in a bag and/or/is a separately portable bag. good design good insulation at least 4cm thick foam either side and it can be converted from a carry bag to a strapped bag to a sleeve! I'm just about to do a mini review ( I know no one cares but hey)

 

did I mention cheap? should cost you bout $30 USD for everything the waterford has FOR $100 BUCKS USD. if moneys no issue I'd say the waterford would beat the NE belkin but I still like my belkin!

I've got photos!

 

here they are

I really like the retractable handles so I can carry it solely as a case or a sling bag

 

Caselogic, Shinza are good too

 

OGIO ..are a real good backpack. my hubby loves his. as far as sleeves..don't know never used ones...does targus make some? you could check out tagus as well. they have always been known for their quality

 

forget about belkin D:, bugger of a thing scratched my notebook in both corners once I placed the notebook inside and zipped it up .

pathetic, thats 4 things I've recently purchased I now cannot use, totalling a waste of $400 dollars arrrgghh.

 

now I need a new laptop bag ;(

 

il go with targus anyday

 

I use a Samsonite Verb, nice comfortable backpack for the money and fits 17".

 

Tom Bihn Makes excellent bags and sleeves.
Don't skimp on protection.

 

I agree that OGIO is very nice, but make sure you chaeck the size before you buy. In fact, I'd recommend a trial fit if possible. I bought an OGIO bag and my rig doesn't fit in the notebook compartment, by less than half an inch. :cry:
There are compartments galore. well labeled too.

They are on the expensive side.

 

like someone else said, if you want cream of the crop, go BOOQ.

 

I am a big Timbuk2 fan. Higher end ones feature corduroy padding for laptops, many bags are also water resistant.

 

Check slappa.com if you looking for style . I read few reviews on there backpacks and people are pretty happy with them. Im thinking on buying one for my NP5791. Or if you have a lots of money, you can check Oakley, expensive but quality

 

Timbuk2 Ftw!

 

I really like my CaseLogic. This is for 15" but my N6410 fit inside.

Tumi, Brenthaven and Codi are the top backpacks. All of them pricey, but quality wise are the best. Among these 3, I would go for Brenthaven.

 

Ive seen the targus, brenthaven, victorinox, and used to own a kenneth cole msnger bag. None are sexier then my new booq bag. Booq gets my vote.
