5 Best iPad Carrying Bags for Business Professionals

Your iPad is not only super important to you. It’s also insanely delicate, with an all-glass screen and an expensive damage replacement cost.

Thankfully, there is a wide range of protective iPad cases and bag styles on the market. But not all are made equal.

Most manufacturers with general carrying cases do not include the iPad in their initial designs. Their products may be functional and utilitarian, but lack aesthetics.

At WaterField Designs, we start with protecting your iPad first, then design a carrying case that reflects the different ways you’d carry it. We have a variety of iPad carrying cases that include a crossbody, sling, backpack, messenger, or briefcase. All are protective, functional and stylish.

Here are our top five picks of the best iPad carrying bags for your tech:

1. A Svelte Crossbody

A crossbody needs to do a lot of things in a small package:

  • It needs to carry your everyday belongings.
  • It needs to keep everything organized.
  • It needs to be easily accessible.
  • And, if it serves as an iPad carrying bag, it needs to protect what’s inside it.

Thankfully, the WaterField Essential Crossbody does all that and more. Its water-resistant nylon construction make it impervious to weather. Meanwhile, its inner space features multiple zippered pockets and compartments to keep things like your wallet and keys organized. It even has a dedicated padded compartment that can fit computers up to 15”!

2. A Stylish Sling

If you prefer to travel lighter, consider this WaterField Sutter Tech Sling iPad carry bag. It. offers all of the breeziness of the crossbody in a smaller package. But great things come in small packages, as this sling bag can still carry computers up to 14”.

3. A Traditional Messenger

The WaterField Outback Duo Laptop Brief is a handsome, tech-friendly canvas and leather shoulder bag that holds two devices – an iPad and a laptop. Keep bulky accessories in the front pocket of this minimalist carry. Even when fully packed, the carrying bag for iPad features a slim profile.

4. A Compact Backpack

Who says a backpack can’t look sophisticated? Waxed canvas and full grain leather accents combine to form the compact. When all you need to carry is your iPad and a few essentials, this compact backpack is the ideal carry.

This is a backpack that is as comfortable on the daily commute as it is on a fashion shoot. And thanks to smart, separated compartments and a padded iPad sleeve, this bag is more than just its good looks.

5. An Office-Ready Briefcase

Frequent fliers and road warriors rejoice! The will keep you organized and productive at 35,000 feet.
