The bag is fantastic. Since there’s not much info, I wanted to give a bit more depth on it after some use. Note I bought the large size.
The pros: beautiful, spacious, the suspension strap feels magical, the front pockets are great, the leather handles feel premium, accents all feel premium but durable.
The surprises: despite the laptop padding, the bag is less structured than expected. Not a bad thing, but something worth noting that’s not clear from the product description.
The con: other than the front pleated pockets, the pockets are much more shallow than I expected. I understand why they probably went this direction (makes it easier to pull things out), but I’ve found things fall out of the inner pockets, particularly the apple laptop charging block. The problem also persists with the hidden slip pocket in the back, as my passport with a case just barely fits in the depth.
Overall, very happy with my purchase. I do wish I had the smaller version for day to day use as well.
I like everything about it
Rugged and well designed. Extremely happy with my purchase.
Design details

THE MODERN BRIEF
The Shinjuku Laptop Brief adds modern touches to the classic briefcase for today's fast-paced lifestyle. It's made to last— made with waxed canvas or ballistic nylon with full-grain leather accents.
The aesthetic is a well-organized, efficient briefcase designed to address today's new work styles.

SMALL DETAILS. BIG IMPACT.
Special features give the Shinjuku Laptop Brief an edge over other briefcases. Magnetic closures for the back and front pockets make it quick and easy to access your wallet, phone, or keys. An internal water bottle holder keeps the Brief's profile clean and streamlined.
For all-day carrying comfort, the handle is wrapped in full-grain leather, and a 1.5-inch Supreme Suspension Strap is included to help distribute the load when carrying on the shoulder.

GO BALLISTIC
Ballistic Nylon is a resilient textile that blends durability, lightness, and weather-resistance. Its sleek, understated aesthetic makes it an ideal choice for the Shinjuku Laptop Brief, a bag designed to be comfortable, lightweight, and stylish.

TRADITIONAL 15 OZ. WAXED CANVAS
Not all waxed canvas bags are created equal. Lower quality bags use 6 oz. canvas. The majority designated as “durable” use 12 oz. canvas. At 15 oz., our waxed canvas exceeds what is commonly sold in the market, yet it's still lightweight. It has a naturally rugged, distressed look and can be re-waxed to freshen it up.
The canvas comes from a reputable U.S. mill that has produced these fabrics since 1930. This specialized textile is coated with Martexin Original Wax™ and shouldn't require much cleaning. Stains can be wiped off with a damp cloth.
HOW TO FRESHEN UP CANVAS
If you have the Shinjuku Laptop Brief in traditional waxed canvas, you can keep it looking like new by applying wax when you think it needs a little refresh. Although you can use any wax, you may want to try Martexin Original Wax™ which was initially used to coat your canvas bag.

SHINJUKU COLLECTION
Inspired by the vibrant, fast-paced Tokyo neighborhood, the Shinjuku Collection is designed to help you nimbly navigate your way through crowds. These stylish bags are compact, lightweight, and comfortable to carry.
Crafted from traditional Waxed Canvas or modern Ballistic Nylon with full-grain leather accents and premium hardware, these bags are made to last.
