Skooba Satchel
Price: $100
The Skooba Satchel can safely protect a 17-inch notebook computer and plenty of other gear (cell phone, keys, water bottle, etc.) in its various-sized compartments. Made out of tough ballistic nylon, the 44-ounce bag includes hundreds of multilayered air cushions that act like shock absorbers underneath and around the laptop. It’s available in four color combinations — black with blue trim, gray with orange trim, olive with red trim, or tan with black trim.
