Which laptop bag should a woman choose?

Most laptop bags are designed based on the masculine briefcase model: rigid lines, a shoulder strap that bounces against the hip, and a silhouette that clashes with a polished outfit. Here are the criteria that really matter for making the right choice.

1. The size of your laptop

Measure the diagonal of the screen: most professional laptops are 13 to 15 inches. A good bag keeps it in place so that it doesn't slide to the bottom of the bag.

2. How you carry it

A classic shoulder strap rubs against your hips with every step. A shoulder handle, long enough to go over a coat, frees up your stride.

3. Storage

Plan for a compartment for the laptop, one for documents, and pockets for the charger, phone, passport, and pens. This is what prevents you from rummaging through the bottom of your bag during a meeting.

4. Travel

If you travel often, a back strap that slides onto the handle of a carry-on suitcase makes all the difference in train stations and airports.

5. The material

Quality leather, certified and well-maintained, lasts for years and develops a patina. Smooth leather withstands the elements better; suede adds softness, provided you protect it with a waterproofing spray.

Our answer: the Power Bag

We designed the Power Bag around these criteria: a single diagonal handle that hugs the body, two compartments for a laptop up to 15 inches and your documents, four pockets, and a strap for a carry-on suitcase. It is handcrafted in Naples from Leather Working Group certified leather, in smooth leather (Nero, Bianco) or suede (Cenere, Amarena), at a price of €520.
