About Commuter Laptop Backpack:
Travel light. Travel fast. If you’re looking to lighten your load, and prefer a two shoulder bag our Skinny Commuter Laptop Backpack is just the ticket. 

As laptop computers get thinner, more people opt for even slimmer iPads or readers, and more of our printed media goes digital, many of us just don’t need that big ol’ bag anymore. 
 
Our Skinny laptop-ready backpack packs all the same great features of our Commuter 2.0 Laptop Bag – we’ve just thinned it out and added stowable shoulder straps. 

About Design:
We pride ourselves on following our three F's of design, Form Function and Footprint, to craft a quality product with urban commuting in mind. Next time you're in town, we invite you to come take a tour of our San Francisco factory to see where each and every product is assembled or made from scratch. 

More Features:
• Stand-up design
• PVC-free (as always)
• Internal slash pocket for folders, iPad or books
• Metal hardware on bag straps
• Waterproof, durable boot

Pros: Easy to use, Lightweight, Spacious
Cons: -

Proving to be perfect for my daily trip on the Caltrain. Heaps of room for my laptop and lunch and has tons of small pockets for the other essentials - wallet, keys, cell phone, camera etc. It evens doubles up as a desk to lean on for doing emil on the train.

Pros: Attractive, Comfortable, Easy to use, Lightweight, Spacious
Cons: -

Comfortable, but could be slightly more comfortable. The spacing of the straps is a little off. The shape is a little too square. Would be great with thicker, softer shoulder pads. Mostly wish it came with a stabilizing center strap. But overall I like it. Keep up the good work.

Pros: Attractive, Easy to use, Lightweight
Cons: -

This bag is everything I wanted and more! Elegant design, useful layout and totally sweet looks. Yes, I could use a little more space, but I agree with rickshaw that the more I had,m the more I'd use. Ultimately this size will probably save my back in the long term.

So far, the only bummer is the snaps constantly pinch my fingers, but it's a decent trade-in for how well they keep the bag shut. I love the magnets!

This bag is great.

Cons: -

After using it for several months, I have to say I love my rickshaw bag a lot. I've been riding my bike with my laptop in it daily, and it has stood up to Portland's wet winter weather very well.

I was having a difficult time finding a replacement for the computer backpack that I lost to theft and then I stumbled across the Skinny Commuter Backpack.

It has everything I need packed into a small size; organized storage, sturdy computer sleeve, room for gym clothes, as well as being waterproof.

The fact that I could customize the color was just an added bonus.
