Best Laptop Backpacks

With so many laptop backpacks to choose from, finding the right one can feel overwhelming.

Our Laptop Backpack Buyer’s Guide makes the decision easier by grouping our backpacks into four distinct categories based on how they’re designed to be used. Compare their strengths, features, and ideal use cases to quickly find the backpack that best fits your gear and your routine.

1. Everyday Backpacks

Versatile, all-around backpacks built to handle a little bit of everything—from the daily commute and coffee-shop work sessions to errands and weekend outings.

2. Tech Backpacks

Purpose-built for tech-heavy carry, with dedicated protection and organization for laptops, tablets, chargers, cables, accessories, and other essential gear.

3. Professional Backpacks

Business-focused backpacks that combine smart organization with polished styling—equally at home in the boardroom, on a business trip, or at your neighborhood coffee shop.

4. Travel Backpacks

Versatile backpacks designed for life on the move, whether you’re packing for a short trip, exploring a new city, or looking for a convenient companion to your primary luggage.

EVERYDAY

SHINJUKU BACKPACK

Best for: anyone who want a slim, versatile backpack for everyday use.

Sleek and efficiently organized, the Shinjuku Backpack strikes a balance between carrying capacity and a streamlined profile. Dedicated padded laptop and tablet compartments protect tech gear, while multiple quick-access pockets keep frequently used items close at hand.

Choose this one if: you want an all-around laptop backpack without stepping up to a larger, tech-heavy design.

TRIGO BACKPACK

Best for: Daily commuters who carry a lot but don't want a heavy backpack.

The Trigo Backpack is the everyday workhorse of the collection. Its high-capacity design has room for a 16'' laptop and 13'' tablet plus daily essentials. The modern EcoPak™ construction provides structure and durability while reducing the bag's overall weight. It's ideal for bike or transit commuters, and anyone whose daily carry needs tend to grow throughout the day.

Choose this one if: capacity-to-weight ratio is high on your priority list.

TECH

TECH FOLIO BACKPACK

Best for: Tech professionals who carry a large collection of chargers, cables, adapters, and accessories.

Part backpack, part mobile tech organizer, the Tech Folio Backpack is built for people whose accessories need as much organization as their devices. The front folio compartment keeps smaller tech gear neatly arranged. The rear main compartment accommodates two devices, or even a change of clothes. It's particularly useful for IT professionals, developers, creators, and frequent business travelers.

Choose this one if: opening your current backpack reveals a nest of cables.

TECH FOLIO TANK BACKPACK

Best for: Power users and gamers carrying oversized 17- or 18-inch laptops.

The Tech Folio Tank is the heavyweight tech carrier of the lineup. Designed around large gaming and workstation laptops, it combines padded laptop and tablet storage. Additionally it carries over the Tech Folio Backpack's front folio compartment with modified pockets for larger gear. It's ideal for gamers, engineers, creators, and other power users whose mobile setup simply won't fit in a conventional laptop backpack.

Choose this one if: your laptop is enormous—and so is its power adapter.

PROFESSIONAL

PRO EXECUTIVE BACKPACK

Best for: Professionals who want a backpack that looks at home in the boardroom.

Designed for business travel, commuting, and polished everyday carry, the Pro Executive combines the organization of a serious work bag with the comfort of a backpack. Two separate compartments keep work gear organized, it stands upright for easy access, and the optional removable Executive Folio lets you carry just the essentials into a meeting.

Choose this one if: you want our most business-focused backpack and regularly move between the office, meetings, and travel.

BOWERY LEATHER BACKPACK

Best for: Professionals who want a classically-styled bag with modern usability.

The Bowery brings a more refined look to everyday laptop carry with a clean silhouette and full-grain leather construction that develops character with age. With space for both a laptop and tablet, it's equally suited to the office, client meetings, business travel, or a day around town.

Choose this one if: you love the look and feel of a traditional leather briefcase but prefer the hands-free comfort of a backpack.

TRAVEL

PACKABLE BACKPACK

Best for: Travelers who want a lightweight second backpack they can stash in their luggage.

The Packable Backpack folds into its own pocket for easy packing, then unfolds into a clean, professional-looking daypack at your destination. Rather than looking like technical outdoor gear, it's polished enough to carry around town or into a casual meeting.

Choose this one if: you want an extra backpack for trips, sightseeing, conferences, or everyday excursions without robbing yourself of precious packing space.
