I posted this in another forum...thought I'd try in here while I'm asking:
Ok, so I've looked almost everywhere for a laptop bag that doesn't look like either a cheap pleather, real leather but 60 yr old businessman, or horrible looking backpacks that are either brown or beige with a bright fluorescent stripe on them. I"m looking for something hip, stylish, or at the very least...slim and not bulky.
Maybe some of you know of a specialty store that caters to this market? Hell, if you know someone who'd make one for me...even better.
Note: it's for a 17" laptop.
I've been inside the Mac store and they're the only ones who seem to offer some sort of stylish laptop bags, but they're specifically made for 17" Macbooks and my HP is 1 1/2" too big for the bag I wanted.
preferably a messenger type bag.
Oh ya...I'm not looking to order anything online.
thnx |

have you checked out Future Shop at all?
I know they usually have a decent selection. |

| hey. thx Jen. i did. at the new location in the new complex at the corner of Yonge & Dundas...but they still look too business like and not casual enough. There was one that I thought was decent, but it was only for a 15" :( |

I have 2.. I found my other one at Winners of all places.
The other place that has pretty cool laptop bags is Dell, but I think you can only order online for those.
You can always try looking online at Future Shop, writing down the item# and calling the store to see if there are any others in the area that have that or if you can have it shipped to the store instead of ordering online :)
Good luck with the hunt.. if I think of any others I will let you know! |

i bought this protective sleeve you can put your laptop in, i find that its perfect because you can then put it inside any stylish bag you choose after
edit: oh ya, got it at staples for under 20$ |
