LAPTOP BACKPACKS

We've been committed to making products in the USA since our start in 1998. Back then, off-shore manufacturing was the prevailing trend, and many sewing shops in San Francisco were shuttered.

We wanted hands-on experience with the products we were making — from the idea phase to final production. We wanted to ensure things were done right, make changes on the fly, and iterate on the design as needed.

Our small-batch production fits the types of products we offer — well-designed, custom-fit items you buy for life. You may have to wait a while for us to make it for you, but you know it will be well-made.

With WaterField American-made gear, you get high quality, long-lasting products. All our designs are original, incorporating details you'll appreciate with each use.

We use only premium, full-grain leather for our bags and accents. It comes from the toughest part of the hide with the tightest grain so it's extremely durable.

Full-grain leather looks better and better as it ages, and your WaterField bag will develop a beautiful patina.

Most of our backpacks include two padded compartments – one for a laptop and one for a tablet. Our slim laptop backpacks like our Essential Laptop Backpack have one padded laptop compartment. 

Two straps evenly distribute weight better than one, keeping your back and shoulders comfortable over longer distances. Laptop backpacks are not only comfortably carry your devices and tech gear, but they are also versatile enough to use for both traveling or in professional settings.

No, we don't make full leather laptop backpacks since leather is a pretty heavy material. We do, however, use handsome full-grain leather trim pieces on the large majority of our laptop backpacks, giving them a classy aesthetic. 

Yes, we make small laptop backpacks, slim laptop backpacks, large laptop backpacks, and even travel laptop backpacks.
