Conservative laptop backpack
- Professional appearance
- Holds accessories and water
- Comfortable and well-padded
- Not much extra room
- Doesn't open fully
The award-winning black Lowepro Tropolis laptop backpack is sleeker and more businesslike than most laptop backpacks. Reviews say it's comfortable and well padded, with a contoured shoulder harness and a padded, ventilated back. It can hold a few papers, accessories and a water bottle as well as a laptop up to 15 inches. If you'd like a laptop bag with more pockets and a trendier appearance, reviews recommend the BBP Hybrid laptop bag (*est. $95), which can be converted from a backpack to a messenger bag to a briefcase.

Eric Simon gives the similar Lowepro Tropolis 1300 a rating of 4 stars (out of a possible five), praising it as businesslike and sedate, but quite comfortable. The only drawback is that the way the zipper curves around the top handle can make it hard to open wide.

More than a dozen owners review the Lowepro Tropolis 1250 here, giving it very positive reviews as comfortable, well-padded, compact and well-organized - but without space for much besides the laptop. The Lowepro earns a perfect average score of five stars.
