Well utilized space, lots of handy pockets, easy to carry on shoulders or by hand
By XNOR
I've had about 4 different laptops and so 4 different laptop bags in the last 6 years and found that a good laptop bag needs to have this: * Good protection for the laptop * Good utilization of space - everything should be easy to reach, not like a duffel bag where you can stuff everything * Enough space to carry a laptop, mouse, power brick, note pads, documents, PDA, cell phone, umbrella and other basic accessories * Easy to hang on the shoulder and by hand. * Good looks After all these points, I was in a big dilemma if I should go for a rolling laptop bag or a 'typical' laptop bag. Finally decided against a rolling bag as I felt that it would be too bulky, difficult to lift and carry in times where it is necessary (like when it rains, over stair cases) + it might be difficult to carry it along with another carry-on luggage in international flights. If you are ok with all of these, there is a nice rolling luggage by Wegner (Swiss army) which I had shortlisted - do take a look at that (PATRIOT from Wenger Triple Gusset Rolling Case w/ Removable Tote). Having decided to go with a 'typical' laptop case - I totally ruled out Samsonites and others after looking at them - they just provide you space to stuff things, nothing else. This bag - the Kensing contour is very unique, it has all the points which I was looking for + these: * Front small pocket: The best thing I like is the front pockets where I can keep a power brick and a optical mouse - all these are something which I would need immediate when I put my laptop down + I can keep an umbrella in the same pocket which I can take out if it starts raining. * Front large pocket: not critical accessories/utilities which we require only after setting up the laptop - I usually keep a cable lock, ear phones, spare spectacles, glue stick, white board markets, pen drive, postage stamps etc - all these in easy to reach compartments, without having to stuff them. * Rear pocket - this is the pocket which is on the 'countoured' side of the bag, hugs you when you put the bag on your shoulders. There is enough space - but I usually stuff very few things - like a mini external hard drive, network cable and a portal wireless router. * Heart of the bag - The laptop compartment is well padded to protect your equipment and it is made to fit 15" laptop. Next to the laptop comparment are two compartments for documents - where I keep my documents and notepads. Here is the best part - I tried keeping my 17" scanner into the document compartment and it easily fits into it - even though I do not intend to carry it like that - it would help me in case if I have to. * Easy to reach document compartment - Just love this compartment: When you put your bags on your shoulder and walk towards the airline security, you do not want to rummage through your bag/wallet and look for the travel documents - just keep them in this easy to reach compartment, it does have a zipper. - This is not just for air tickets, but I use it mostly for keeping my company/client ID badges and a short pack of my business cards * Where Kensington loses a star is in the styling - it looks like a really decent bag, very good indeed. But I would have like it if Kensington has styled it even better. Swiss army/wenger bags are the best in styling).

The "New" Kensington is a Rip-Off
By J. T. Sink
I had a Kensington Contour 15-inch bag that I loved, but it was pretty worn and the top pocket zipper was kaput. I've had it for 5 years so I ordered another one. Much to my surprise, this was not the same bag shown in the photo. The two dissimilar size front pockets with lots of cool inner organizer pockets was replaced by a single large pocket. Not cool to go cheap, Kensington. Needless to say, I won't be ordering this bag again.

super bag, worth the price
By kovboi
The other reviews are accurate - this is a super bag. I researched a lot of bags and settled on this one to replace my old Targus CityLine bag for my Dell M1210. I would just add a couple of notes to what others have said:First, it's a little heavier in the hand than you might expect, though the handle design helps distribute the weight evenly. BUT once it's on your shoulder, the ergonomic contour design makes it hardly noticeable.Second, the shoulder strap is well padded and doesn't slip at all. This can actually be a problem if you're wearing a heavy coat, however, as the strap can be a royal pain to remove - no matter what you do, it won't slip off your shoulder. Instead, you have to sort of peel it off. Takes a little getting used to, but this is a minor annoyance compared to the benefits of this case.Also, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the handy ticket/passport pocket really is convenient when you're traveling. The front pockets are also very convenient. It's a little unfortunate that there aren't any CD sleeves built into the bag, given that it already has more pockets than a levi's factory.Overall, a fantastic bag that looks good, and is great for travel. Highly recommended.
