Full Description
Main Compartment
The main compartment is slim but capacious enough for everything you need for a day out, whether you're at a co-working space, on the plane, at a coffee shop, or in your favorite brewery. It zips closed to keep the rain off your equipment while you're on the move.
Inside the main compartment you'll find an open-topped device pocket measuring 13" x 9" and made from spacer mesh (the same mesh as our Synik 30's laptop pocket).
Front Pocket
The front pocket features several smaller pockets, big enough for a pen or stylus, charge bank, or smart phone. It also has plenty of room to hold all the things you need quick access to: power cords, wallets, fobs, and snacks.
Zippable Luggage Handle Passthrough Pocket
The passthrough measures 13¾" / 350mm wide and features a zippered bottom so it can be converted to an open-topped pocket when not being used to secure your tote to a roller bag. Plenty big enough to put your laptop into if you just need to move a few feet and don't want to go through the motions of zipping and unzipping the bag, or if you want quick access to a notepad or eReader.
What's Included
One 8" Snaphook/Snaphook Key Strap
As with most of our bags, we've included a key strap. 8" long from tip-to-tip, a snaphook on either end. Good for attaching your keys to.
One 4-pack of Black Pulls Du Jour
A set of our new pulls come with your bag, great for adding a little extra length, leverage, and texture to the metal pulls.
What's Optional
Vertical Packing Cubelets' vertical orientation work well in this bag to keep all your cables contained.
The HLT Size 2 is great for those who are hyper-organized. Put all your cables, syluses, and fobs all in one bag for quick-access and have a place for everything and everything in its place so you don't have to think about it while on the go.
Take an adventure with our Mystery Organizer Pouches -- all sorts of fun combinations of colors and a size that is very useful for the small stuff that attaches to the o-rings in our bags for easy access.
An alternative to the Mystery Organizer Pouches, plenty of different sizes and choose your color for coordination and differentiation.

I love this bag so much that I have it in 2 colors. It has the PERFECT array of pockets in all the right sizes so store everything I need to carry and it is organized perfectly. Plus, the shoulder strap is perfectly placed so that the bag lands behind my elbow and doesn't slip. Everything about it is brilliant!

Love the longer straps for shouldering. Good arrangement of compartments. I wish the bag were an inch longer because it’s a struggle to slide my laptop in.

Wasn't sure about the size and storage and it turns out to be the perfect bag for my laptop! I love my TB backpack and wasn't sure how much I might use this bag. But so far it's the in-town favorite as it holds everything I need and isn't heavy.

Best tote bag I’ve ever had. Equally appropriate for work or hanging out in the park; can be stuffed with everything I need for a day and even an overnight doesn’t feel heavy and doesn’t drag on the ground when I hold it by the straps -great bag.!

This bag is a good size for me - it can hold some bulky items like my noise-cancelling headphones AND my iPad that don't fit in my small purse. Right now it adorns the top of my cabinet, waiting for my next trip in a couple of weeks!
