I am looking for a new bag for my new laptop.I was looking at the hyperlite backpack but not too sure. The laptop size is 15.6" x 11.2" Any suggestions? Thanks

Targus make good ones, they fit up to a 17" as well. About ten bucks more than the Hyperlite bag.

Check this one out.

Belkin also make some good stuff, very nice quality wise and decent padding. Remember to check the dimensions if you're ordering online or you may find your computer doesn't fit in your new bag.

I prefer the Swiss Army ones. They vary in price from $60-$100 + and they have tons of features.

I have a Swiss Army backpack. It is awesome. I bring it (with my laptop in it) everywhere.

My dad just got one of the nice Swiss Army ones at Sam's Club for pretty cheap.

Ogio makes some sick backpacks with lap top sleeves in them.

I have a dakine one, it's frickin' awesome, has a ton of space and good padding, lots of useful compartments. If you're interested i'll find you the model name

Get an Analog backpack.

Our school gives us a bag every year... I know I have some of them laying around (still on my first one - tough as nails) ... if I can find the some of the unused ones its all yours.

Its a targus, looks bigger than the one on the link... grey and black are the only colors, looks nice, TONS of room in it, tough tough bag

PM me if you want one

Can't beat nicks free one, but I have a Swiss Army, as mentioned above. So far so good. A few seams have started to go, so I too will be in the market soon. I also have both Oakley and Ogio backpacks with a lap top sleeve, and sometimes will just throw my computer in there. I have a 15" Mac Book Pro, and it's a bit of a squeeze, but not too bad. When it's time for me to replace, I'll look at Oakley first, as I've always been impressed with their stuff.

pretty good option if you're interested in keeping it dry:

you can also use the computer sleeve in any other bag and it'll stay dry.

dakine makes the most legit bags out...IMO...i've had all kinds of packs and my dakine is my favorite and the most durable one i've had.

I've had an ogio back pack for a couple years now. I believe it was a nyquist model. I highly recommend it.

+1 for Ogio too. i gotta couple of huge luggage bags 2nd hand from a friend who's sponsored by them. they've been tossed around airports all over the world and things still look brand new. tough as hell.

i've been tryna get him to get me one of these too....

What is Ogio? I noticed on the Fuel TV show, Thrillbillies they had a boat wrap that repped OGIO. Strange it came up. I was just about to make a thread. Who were the dudes out there on the show?

Check out that dakine terminal of forrest's. Thats the one I have but i have it in black. I love it! Tons of room, laptop sleeve inside and one with a side entry too, so you have options on where you put it, very comfortable, sunglass pouch, you name it.

Another thumbs up for ogio. I have an ogio golf bag and my buddy's boat bag is ogio. Both are tough as nails.
