You don't need to drop $300+ on a Tom Bihn to have a totally functional backpack with a laptop sleeve, for cryin' out loud. So many backpacks have it, and it's not a premium feature.


Agreed. Parent is the one who said “just get a Tom Bihn bag” - i am saying exactly “maybe mention some other choices because damn!”


Yes, I know. I was responding to the grandparent, not you. I get it.


I use a Belkin F8N179[0,1], paid £23/€26/$31 for it ~8 years ago.

It's getting a bit old, so I guess it's time to upgrade... maybe for something a bit smaller, but it has served me well so far.

He doesn't want a laptop backpack. He wants the minimalist cool vibe.

The solution proposed to me is ridiculous:)
