Laptop Bag - clamshell opening - smart, convenient design for your notebook Many notebook briefcases are top loading, which means they form a sort of bucket inside the main compartment. If you have an inner pocket with several accessories, you are forced to pack them vertically on top of each other. The full clamshell opening of the Manhattan Cambridge Notebook Bag 17.3" makes access to the inner compartment much more convenient. This construction lets you find the right item easier, and it's a big help when handling your laptop at airport security inspections. The Cambridge Notebook Bag also features many stowing options that you’ll be glad to have on your trip. Never know where to safely put your or your customers’ business cards? A separate small pocket keeps them safe and crease-free. Large front, rear and interior pockets offer plenty of space for cables, files, headphones and more. The notebook compartment itself is amply padded to protect your valuable device from bumps and scratches. Thanks to its compact design, this laptop briefcase can be easily stowed in seat pockets or overhead bins. A sturdy handle and a removable, non-slip shoulder strap ensure safe and comfortable transportation.
