A bag for a 15.6-inch laptop fits the most common screen size for work and school laptops. This page has four types: canvas shoulder bags like the Penephira RETRO, business bags like the Valley Max and Genesis Pro, the backpack The Vintage Pro, and sleeves that go inside another bag, like the neoprene Citrate. Before you buy, check the size in the model's name: a 15.6 or 16 inch compartment fits a 15.6-inch laptop, while a compartment rated for 15 inches means checking your laptop's dimensions. Most bags here are water-repellent.
Shoulder bag, business bag, backpack or sleeve?
A canvas shoulder bag, like the Penephira RETRO, is comfortable for every day, with a wide, padded shoulder strap. A business bag, like the CrispVista Elite or Strider Ultra, keeps a professional look and has compartments for documents. A backpack, like the leather The Vintage Pro, spreads the load over both shoulders. A sleeve, like the neoprene The Diamond or the felt Splash Pro, is a thin layer of protection that goes inside a bag you already own.
How to make sure your laptop fits
The size in the bag's name is the largest screen the compartment holds. A 15.6-inch laptop fits a 15.6 or 16 inch compartment, like those of the Studio Pro and Cosmos Elite, rated up to 16 inches. With sleeves, choose a snug size: the Citrate, for example, comes in a version for up to 14.6 inches and a 15.6-inch version measuring 40ร29.5ร2 cm. In models with two sizes, like the Nebulae Platinum and The Flawless Pro, choose the 15 to 16 inch version.
Protection from rain and knocks
Most bags here are made of water-repellent fabrics: high-density canvas on The BONANZA Pro, Oxford fabric on The Flawless Pro and Apocalypse, and Cordura nylon on the Cosmos Elite. For protection from knocks, The Diamond and The Bliss wrap the laptop in 360-degree protection. And in bags with several compartments, put the charger and mouse in a separate compartment so they don't press on the laptop.
Frequently asked questions
Which bag fits a 15.6-inch laptop?
Any bag whose compartment is rated for 15.6 or 16 inches. For every day, a shoulder bag like the Penephira RETRO; for work, a business bag like the Valley Max or Genesis Pro; and if you already have a bag, a sleeve like the Citrate or the neoprene The Diamond.
Does a 15.6-inch laptop fit in a 15-inch bag?
Not always. A bag labeled 15 inches, like The Tsunami Pro Side, is built for a 15-inch laptop, and a 15.6-inch laptop is slightly larger. To be safe, choose a 15.6 or 16 inch compartment.
What's the difference between a 15.6-inch laptop bag and a sleeve?
A bag has handles or a strap and room for more gear, and you carry it on its own. A sleeve is a thin padded cover that protects the laptop inside another bag. Some sleeves can be carried on their own too, like the Citrate with fold-away handles and two front pockets.
