BUILT's Laptop Backpack keeps your files close, peripherals closer
Not one to just follow the crowd, BUILT has thrown an interesting twist on the oh-so-popular Neoprene laptop case. The Laptop Backpack enables users to tote their 12- to 17-inch machine right on their back along with textbooks, LAN party flyers and a copy of The Daily Bugle; you'll also find a couple of smaller compartments for storing peripherals and accessories. The material itself is water- and stain-resistant, and the pack is available in two sizes to fit all but the most atypical of frames. According to BUILT, the new wave of laptop carrying should begin today at $80 a pop.[Via BeSportier]
Built NY prepping neoprene Laptop Back Pack
Built NY is fairly well known for its high-quality, snug-fitting notebook sleeves, but we're not sure if the company's neoprene addiction will play as well in the backpack form factor. Nonetheless, in order to celebrate what it claims is the 100th anniversary of the ubiquitous dual-strap sack, Built is releasing a bag called the Laptop Back Pack that looks a bit too form-fitting for our tastes. Expect the Kevlar vest lookalike -- in both 12- and 17-inch sizes -- to hit stores in April for $80.
