Perfect slim laptop backpack

This is a great 14 inch slim laptop bag, similar to the previous 114 model with good improvements over the old one still for sale (previous model I had 4 Years while she wasn't killed in a washing machine accident because of the straps [the older model is $9 cheaper at the time of writing]). The 414 is a really good bag with the following features that aren't necessarily advertised: * Comfortable fit and adjustable straps with Velcro to hold it in place. Excess length in the straps is removed after adjustment * In addition to the 2 main compartments, it is found in most laptop bags; There are 7 zipped compartments to keep your belongings organized and easily accessible. You'd be surprised how many bags don't. * The main compartment naturally has a padded laptop compartment. *Of course there are dedicated slots for phones, pens, lanyards, etc. *Smaller interior zipped compartments are important to me. They keep things organized and prevent small items from falling out of the bag or being difficult to find.* 3/7 additional zipped pockets are located in the main compartments.* 1/7 additional zipped pockets are located on top of the bag access*1/7 additional Lined zippered pockets hidden on the back of the bag to keep your wallet/phone or other valuables out of the reach of pickpockets as you cannot get to them without removing the bag from your body. * 2/7 zippered side pockets and 2 water bottle holders (not tried yet). Actual size information: I find this case roomy for a small slim bag (I usually carry my 13" Retina Mac, wallet, phone, keys, half a dozen flash drives, bike gloves (at least until I come to work) I eat breakfast and lunch in zips). If it rains, I can also put my thin, light windbreaker jacket inside. and 185 pounds and found the perfect bag size. I hardly had to adjust the length of the strap but there is still enough for taller people. Again very satisfied. For those considering the older model, it doesn't have a security pocket, there are only 2 additional zipped compartments inside the main compartment and no side pockets/water holders. If the older model was available I'd probably reordered it :) Even happier now with the new version/model 414. : Most people who buy thin/small laptop bags do it consciously: * Keep it organized. * In them you will not collide with other passengers on public transport or in other hard-to-reach places. and create chaos. *Laptop bags for 13-14 inch laptops are almost always thin and small and can't hold much more than a laptop, charger, wallet, phone and other small items. Best described as **Slim/Small.*Bags designed to fit laptops up to 15.6 inches hold much more gear than a laptop and are best described as medium sized. Big.
