Just a Pad Off on Backpacks

This is a beautiful laptop backpack made from very nice leather but for all its level of detail it suffers from some significant design flaws in my opinion. no padding around the computer case. I'm assuming the velcro pocket is the sleeve for your laptop. The backpack is uncomfortable on the back, and the computer has no additional protection from bumps and falls. And if that case is for your computer, then why does the USB adapter serve a different compartment and not the one that has a computer case? It makes no sense. The laptop is more convenient to carry in the front compartment - where there is a pass-through USB port. This compartment is also not padded, but at least the hard case of the computer doesn't press on the back. I tried to put a 15.6" laptop in a padded bag, but then I couldn't close the backpack's zippered compartment. On a positive note, there are too many zipped compartments inside and out, most of which have strong leather zips, giving it a luxurious feel. The backpack has a nice soft top handle and wide shoulder straps. and well filled. The finish is impeccable throughout. Finally, the real leather backpack (at the time of writing this article) costs less than $150 for a reasonable price. So its pros outweigh the cons, but my goodness, why isn't there a computer pad? PROS:* Very nice leather.* Lots and lots of zipped compartments.* Padded carry handle and shoulder straps.* Pass-through USB port.* Nice colour, nice design.* Immaculate workmanship.* Very affordable price CONS:* No padding around the computer.
