Know before you buy
Yes, the insert is designed to accommodate laptops up to 16 inches. However, please note the internal dimensions are 14.5"w x 11"h x 2"d, so we recommend measuring your specific device to ensure a comfortable fit.
The 1000 Denier Cordura material is water-resistant, meaning it will repel light rain and splashes. While it offers excellent protection for daily commutes, it is not fully waterproof and should not be submerged.
The lid features a 4-inch overlap secured with Velcro, which provides a reliable seal for standard transport. It is designed to keep your device contained and protected from dust and debris during travel.
Yes, the insert is made from durable, washable material. You can clean it as needed to keep it looking fresh, though we recommend spot cleaning or gentle hand washing to maintain the integrity of the padding.
In addition to the main laptop compartment, there is one front open pocket and two flat pockets inside. These are ideal for organizing slim accessories like charging cables, thin power banks, or documents.
The included shoulder strap is both adjustable and detachable, allowing you to customize the fit. While it is functional for carrying your device, please keep in mind that the insert is lightweight and designed primarily for protection rather than heavy-duty load-bearing.
