I have multiple SF Bags products and love them all

I have use the Tech Folio only twice and it is exceptional at keeping my gear organized and handy, just as advertised. Including in-flight. Beautifully made.

Nice craftsmanship but too many small compartments

Nice bag but not enough larger pockets for other items besides cords and plugs.

Tech Folio Brief

Love the bag. This is my second Waterfield bag, my first was an Air Porter carry on. I actually like the Tech folio brief better, plus it fits a 16 inch M2 Pro better. Only criticism is that with shoulder strap is on the middle of the sides of the bag which makes the bag spin more than the Air Porter. I think they should be in the top 3rd of the sides.

Great bag, quality made!

Bought this back to use to carry all my daily tech with me. This is the perfect bag to do it. Visit techiemagic.co.uk to see full review.

YOUR NEW MOBILE OFFICE 

You'll love the extra room in each of the two separate compartments of the Tech Folio Brief.  The generously-sized sections can fit almost everything you'll need on location to get your work done. 

 

The briefcase section carries your office gear and is deep enough to hold two laptops, a water bottle, several documents — even headphones. It zips open halfway, making it easy to insert and remove the contents. The double zipper pulls can be secured with a small lock if needed. When not full, the soft sides collapse for a compact look. 

 

The tech folio section has multiple pockets designed to securely store your various electronics and gadgets. It zips open flat to display your tech tool kit.  

EFFICIENT TECH ORGANIZATION

When you're working in the field, it's critical to have your complete technology tool kit along.  The tech folio section of the Tech Folio Brief is big enough to keep your arsenal of cords, cables, adapters, etc. tidy and instantly visible. 

 

The key to staying organized is having everything in its place. Zippered mesh pockets store easy-to-lose gadgets and two soft, protective open pockets store bigger-sized items. You can quickly scan both sides of the folio to pick out the item you need,  and when you're ready to pack up, you can easily see if any piece of gear has been left out. 

THE TECH FOLIO COLLECTION

Customers who participated in our Next Generation Gear Case Community Design helped develop a collection of products designed to hold tech gear. The Tech Pocket was designed for the Minimalists who needed an extra pocket to carry just a few items, the Tech Folio for the Gadgeteers who carried a bit more tech, and the Tech Folio Plus for Pros whose jobs required more tech gear. 

 

Each Tech Folio also had padded compartments to hold different sizes of laptops or tablets. When Apple's 16-inch MacBook Pro launched, we designed the Tech Folio 16-inch

 

The Tech Folio Brief is a super-sized tech folio and a fully functional briefcase for professionals who carry a whole lot of gear to get their work done. 

HOW TO FRESHEN UP YOUR CANVAS

Keep your waxed canvas Tech Folio Brief looking new by applying wax when you think it needs a little refresh. Although any wax is applicable, you can use Martexin Original Wax which was initially used to coat your canvas bag. 

Gary shows how you can re-wax your bag to keep it looking new, using the Vitesse Cycling Musette as an example. 

CARING FOR YOUR LEATHER AND WAXED CANVAS

 

If you have the waxed canvas and chocolate leather version of the Tech Folio Brief, Gary shows how you can maintain these materials so they’ll look great over time. We use full grain Roughman Leather for your bag which has oils that respond well to heat.

 

Although this video is for the AirPods Max Shield Case, the maintenance also applies to your bag.
