BAGSMART’s quilted puffer tote comes in Standard (fits 15.6-inch laptops) and Small (14-inch) sizes, weighs under a pound, zips shut and is machine washable. Stylish and light, but you will want a separate sleeve for laptop protection. Many colours offered.
Description
The BAGSMART puffy tote bag is a quilted, puffer-style shoulder tote that happens to carry a laptop. It looks like a casual bag rather than office luggage, which is the draw for people who move between home, café and office.
Breaking down the BAGSMART puffy tote
The Standard size is 16.1 x 6.1 x 12.2 inches (20L) and fits laptops up to 15.6 inches; the Small is 15 x 5.1 x 11 inches (18L) for 14-inch machines. It weighs about 0.99 lb (Standard) or 0.79 lb (Small), closes with a zip and is made of soft, machine-washable taslan polyester. Many colours are offered. Because the quilted shell is soft, it squashes slightly under a seat and is comfortable against the shoulder even when full, and the colour range runs from black and cream to burgundy and pink.
Using the BAGSMART puffy tote at home and away
Use it as a commuter bag, a campus tote with a gym change, or a soft personal item that slides under an aeroplane seat. The zip top stops items spilling when you set it down.
It is not a padded laptop case, so add a sleeve if your laptop travels daily.
