OT: Laptop bag for Macbook Pro 15in

Post by grimleyj » Fri Nov 10, 2006 11:29 pm

I just got my first Mac (MB Pro 15in) and I'm looking for a laptop bag as sexy as the Macbook. The Ableton one is OK but I'd like to know what everyone here recommends.
Cheers,
grimley.

Comes with a Laptop Sleeve included. I can fit my Laptop, an Ox8 controller, all the wall plugs, audio interface, mouse, CDs, iPod and a porno magazine in easily.

I doesn't look like a laptop bag, so its less assuming than a "Look, I'm a LAPTOP. Steal Me." Bag.


PLus, you can go to the store with it and it will hold a few cans of soup too.

I have the STM Wave and it works like a charm. Feels nice and sturdy, it's waterproof (proved this myself unwillingly the other day when I was caught offguard by a nasty raincloud) and has a separate sleeve for the laptop. :)

my only complaint is that the inner sleeve fits a bit too tightly on my MBpro which makes it a bit difficult to zip it. Still a nice bag. I'm happy with it



Plus I like that kind of vertical elongated style shoulder bag instead of the old fashioned short wide style.

And I love the cholor scheme. It looks a bit brownish in these pics but in reality it's a nice navy blue all over with all those nice, shiny royal blue and turquoise trim details that are shown. It's a nice color combination IMO :oops:

I rock a Brenthaven. The thing is a beast of a sleeve and will definitely protect your investment.

My spire bag rocks. Has a heavy duty plastic sleeve in the very back of the backpack, which does not at all look like a laptop bag. I use this for a 17 inch pb btw.
