ProStyle™-XF Backpack, $149

The ProStyle-XF Backpack is our most full-featured backpack. This Laptop Backpack features our X-Ray Friendly™ system for ease of passage at airport security. Just unzip down the middle, butterfly open, and lay the Brenthaven Backpack on the conveyor belt. The TSA scanners can see your laptop through the X-Ray machines, thereby allowing you to leave your laptop computer in the bag. This Brenthaven ProStyle XF Backpack features a dedicated laptop compartment with our HDF™ protection system that protects your laptop computer from most reasonable falls, table-height or below. Custom fit for most laptops up to 17”.

One recent reviewer of the ProStyle XF Backpack wrote:

‘I love this Brenthaven Backpack. It is the perfect upgrade from my previous Brenthaven MacBook Pro shoulder case. Extremely well made product and a perfect fit for the MacBook Pro. I also own the Victorinox Architecture™ 2.0 Big Ben which is too large and the side entry doesn't zip all the way to the bottom. The Victorinox zipper placement results in a difficult entry and it scratches your MacBook, so I prefer this lab top backpack. You add a little thickness for the 'x-ray friendly’ feature, but I love the convenience and the TSA agents thank me all the time for using this laptop backpack. They say it makes their job easier. Thanks Brenthaven.’

Expandable Trek Backpack, $119.95

The Expandable Trek Backpack provides amazing storage space and versatility for the active, urban professional. This ergonomic backpack features multiple pockets and an expandability option that expands for an additional 20% capacity when you need it. The exterior shell is made of our durable Brenthaven 1680d ballistic nylon, which will look great for many years to come. Inside, this backpack features a dedicated laptop compartment with our HDF™ protection system, to cradle your laptop computer from the bangs and bumps of the digital lifestyle.

Here’s what consumers have to say about the Expandable Trek Backpack:

‘I am amazed at the difference in quality offered by this laptop backpack. Obviously a lot of design and engineering thought went into it. I am 59 and have degenerative disc and joint disease. I wanted a laptop backpack but did not think that I would find one for my laptop that would allow me to carry weight without pain. I am able to do so much with this bag, plus the designers seem to have thought of everything without adding unneeded trivialities, which only add weight. Thank you for a great product!’

‘I’m extremely pleased with this laptop backpack. I bought this backpack for a two-week tour in Europe, my only bag. With the souvenirs it was a bit tight at the end of the trip, but performed flawless. I didn't want to leave my laptop in the hotel but carrying this Brenthaven backpack all day was comfortable. Not one complaint in that department. The front pocket is deep and I wish it had easier access. It's not hard to lose things in the bottom. On the bright side though, you won't be having things fall out from there. Overall, I'm extremely pleased with this laptop backpack.’

Metrolite BP-XF, $99.95

The MetroLite BP-XF is perfect for the traveling professional who seeks functionality and style all in one. With the Brenthaven X-Ray Friendly™ design, this laptop back pack butterflies open and allows the user to pass through airport security without removing the laptop. The HDF™ protection system is designed to cradle your laptop from the damage that can occur from the daily commute or travels around the world. Inside the laptop backpack, there are multiple pockets and an organization panel so you can keep all your accessories easily accessible on the go. Made with 840d nylon, this laptop backpack is designed to look good for many years to come. All Brenthaven laptop backpacks come with our 100% lifetime guarantee. The contoured padded, back panel makes it comfortable to carry heavy loads long distances. Unzip the back pocket, and slip this laptop backpack over the handle of your wheeled case.

Here’s what recent reviewers had to say about the Metrolite BP-XF:

‘The Metrolite Backpack XF laptop case actually fits the 15.4 inch MacBook Pro. (Little snug, but well worth it). For airport travel domestic and overseas, this is the MacBook case you want. Enough room for a MBP, and a Kindle, with room for all the other junk you need to have when you travel, this laptop backpack also fits nicely under the seat or in the overhead with no fuss. The upright means you can get into it easily when it is between your legs in a cramped coach seat on a Regional Jet. (Which is what I liked). All in all, probably one of the best travel tools I have had in a LONG time.’

‘I normally don't take time to write reviews about any of my purchases, but this laptop backpack is so great that I wanted to post a 5 star review. Pockets for everything I carry. Durable, yet compact and lightweight. I've been through 4 airports since I bought it, and being able to unzip it for the x-ray machine has saved a lot of time and hassle. You won't regret buying this laptop backpack’.

ProStyle™ SlimPack, $89.95

Our thinnest laptop backpack ever, the ProStyle^TM SlimPack offers legendary Brenthaven protection in a flap-over design. This laptop backpack features our HDF™ protection system which is designed to cradle your MacBook or laptop from the drops, bangs and bumps of the daily commute. The zip-down organization panel is easily accessible and has slots for pens, memory cards and other accessories. The padded back panel and ergonomic shoulder straps make it a comfortable pack to carry throughout the day. Lastly, should you be caught in a rainstorm, this laptop backpack features a pullout rain cover that covers the bag entirely. Now that’s protection!

Some recent reviews of the ProStyle^TM SlimPack:

‘I really love this SlimPack MacBook Case. I'm looking forward to taking it on an upcoming trip to NYC - it is really well made, as well as attractive, with the white trim on the black, and I feel my laptop will be very well protected. My 15.6" laptop fits quite comfortably, and there are enough pockets to carry the things I use with my laptop. The pockets will be holding my wireless mouse, my AC adaptor, my small laptop speaker Logitech Laptop Speaker Z205, and a mouse pad. I could probably also fit a magazine for the flight in one of the many well-protected pockets. I own another Brenthaven Backpack which cost around the same amount, and compared to this backpack, it seems quite cumbersome. I also don't feel it protects my laptop nearly as much as this well cushioned Brenthaven Backpack does. I don't travel a lot with my laptop, but when I do, I want to feel that it's well protected, and this laptop backpack does the job, while still staying quite slim, and not bulky or cumbersome. I think it would be an excellent choice for students, or other people who carry their laptops frequently - the quality for the money can't be beat, and it seems it would wear very well. So, if you're looking for good, comfortable, and attractive protection in a laptop backpack style, I highly recommend the Brenthaven SlimPack!’
