Leather Work Bags for a 13–16-inch Laptop

Start with the laptop

Measure your laptop with the lid closed and add 4–5 cm. A 13-inch laptop needs a tote about 36 cm wide, a 14-inch one 38 cm, a 15- or 16-inch one 42 cm or more.

Which bag takes which laptop

• Carolyn Medium, 40 × 26 × 14 cm: up to 13 inches. It does not take a 15-inch laptop.
• Jane Tote, 48 × 27 × 15 cm: up to 14 inches, at 700 g.
• Carolyn Large, 50 × 30 × 19 cm: up to 16 inches, plus A4 folders.
• Object №03 Large, 44 × 27 × 12 cm: up to 16 inches, with a magnetic closure.
• Riposo, 60 × 33 × 10.5 cm: up to 16 inches, leather handles and base on a textile body, 600 g.

Weight and handles

Carolyn Large and Object №03 Large weigh 1700 g empty, Carolyn Medium 1250 g. Handle drops of 25–31 cm put each one on the shoulder; Carolyn sits there over a winter coat too. None has a padded compartment, so carry the laptop in a sleeve. More in our guide how to choose a leather tote for work.
