Size and fit

Make sure the bag meets your laptop dimensions. Our laptop bags are designed for 13, 15, and 17-inch laptops depending on the model. If you have documents, accessories, or personal items to transport, look for a product that comes with extra compartments and pockets.

Material and durability

Genuine leather is known for its luxury look as well as its durability. It ages wonderfully with time. Full-grain leather is generally regarded as the best. Faux leather is vegan-friendly and most affordable. However real leather is the most stylish.

Functionality and features

Padded compartments are great for protecting your laptop from drops and bumps. Adjustable straps give you extra comfort and a customizable fit.

External pockets give you easy access to essentials like phones and keys. You may wish to seek out a bag that has separate compartments or pockets for items like notebooks and pens.

Design and aesthetics

If you’ll be using your bag in a business environment, it may be best to look for one with a streamlined, minimal design.

Maybe you’re a student or need a bag for everyday use? If so, a casual design could be ideal.

Brown and black are highly versatile, but patterns and bold colors can be perfect for those who want to make a powerful statement.

Closure mechanism

A zipper gives you valuable security and stops things from falling out. Magnetic straps give you easy access but may not be so secure.

A buckle or a clasp can be stylish and secure whilst adding a touch of tradition to your bag.

Comfort

Look for padded shoulder straps if you’ll be carrying your bag for long periods of time. Crossbody options distribute weight evenly and give you hands-free convenience. Handles are great for when you wish to carry your bag by hand.

Maintenance and care

Some leather bags have protective coatings which offer protection from light rain. It’s important to remember that factors like the finish can determine how difficult a bag is to clean and maintain.

Sustainability and ethics

If you have sustainability in mind, look for a brand that’s committed to eco-friendliness. Pick a brand that sources leather responsibly or is known for its cruelty-free products.

Budget and value

If you have more to spend, it could be beneficial to invest in something more expensive. Costlier items can give you extra longevity, timeless style, and better craftsmanship.

However, there are many quality options available designed for those on a budget. Try to strike a good balance between quality and value if you are on a tight budget.

Brand and reviews

An established brand might give you better quality and warranty options. It’s also a good idea to check out reviews from genuine customers to get a deeper insight into the quality offered by the bag.

Tanning process

Vegetable tanning: This is achieved by using tannins from plant matter. It can provide a natural, earthy finish and creates a unique patina over time. It’s also good for the environment.

Chrome tanning: Chrome tanning uses chemicals to deliver a soft texture. A key benefit of chrome tanning is that it requires less maintenance and offers good flexibility.

Stitch quality

Look closely at the stitch spacing and thread thickness. Uniform stitching suggests good craftsmanship, which can mean fantastic longevity.

Inner lining materials

High-quality bags often have linings made from suede, silk, and cotton. Quality lining gives you extra protection for your laptop, preventing internal wear and tear.

Hardware quality

Check the quality of buckles, clasps, and zippers. The presence of brass and YKK zippers normally means you can expect great quality overall. Quality hardware makes your bag easier to use and prolongs its life.

Compartment design

Multiple pockets are great for organization but also help your bag to distribute weight more evenly. This can keep you comfortable during lengthy commutes whilst protecting your laptop from other items.

Bag feet

Some market-leading bags have small metal feet at the bottom. They slightly elevate the bag and defend the leather from direct contact with surfaces whilst enhancing longevity.

Protection mechanisms

Padded and reinforced corners can protect your laptop and other tech from impacts. It’s inevitable that accidental drops and bumps will happen at some point. However, these safeguards can give you valuable peace of mind.
