Know before you buy
Yes, the main compartment is specifically sized to accommodate laptops up to 15.4 inches. The entire bag is fully padded with high-grade closed-cell foam to provide shock protection for your device.
The bottom of the bag is constructed with a waterproof, non-slip material designed to protect your gear when placed on damp surfaces. While the main body is made of high-strength nylon, it is best described as weather-resistant rather than fully submersible.
The attaché is built with high-tensile nylon webbing and heavy-duty #10 zippers to handle significant weight. It also includes a padded shoulder strap to help distribute the 3.7-pound base weight more comfortably during extended carry.
Yes, the external radio and water bottle pockets feature bungee retention cords. These allow you to cinch the pockets tight, ensuring your items stay secure even when you are moving quickly.
The interior features a dedicated organizer panel with extensive divisions specifically designed for small tools, instruments, and documents. This keeps your smaller items from shifting around inside the main compartment.
