Light, cool bag for an Apple Powerbook

[kuran]

I have recently bought an Apple Powerbook (15"), its a fantastic computer.. but I need find myself a great looking carrying bag for it, preferrably one with a shoulder strap…*like a mailman's bag.
Something simple so that I can just slide the Powerbook in..

I already have protective sleeves from Foofbag, so it really doesn't have to have any special consideration in its design to house such an expensive computer...

So, any ideas? I'm at a loss... my favourite designers are Comme des Garcons, Yohji, Dries van Noten and Stephan Schneider.

Thanks for any help!

May I recommend Cargo magazine (most recent), they have like 6 bags designed specifically for laptops to be put into them, some are so cool.

Are you male or female (Im assuming male).

I'm male, could you perhaps give a quick list of the bag names or designers? I'll check in my newsagents if I can get the magazine in Belgium.

Thanks!

I decided to go for this D&G messenger.. found it for 240€ in a local store, it is very big and could easily house a 17" pb, but I really love its size that way... of course the PB is in a Foofbag when I put it in this messenger!

great choice, kuran... i really like that d&g bag. is yours in lime too?

 

[kuran]

Yes... it matches my wonderful Lime Comme des Garcons wallet...which I recommend... these ones: http://www.aloharag.com/highseas/assets/images/english/store/men/cdg/ccdg.htm

Slightly overpriced on this site though.

Hey kuran,

I saw some simple, beautiful and quite handy PB-bags in the Mac-store in London, Regent Street. You can also buy them online: www.knomobags.com and they'll go perfectly with any SS garment.

Ciao,

Steve
