Your Everyday Carry, Elevated
A laptop backpack should do more than carry a computer. It should keep your whole day organised, move effortlessly between the office, the commute and the weekend, and look good doing all of it. At Lipault, our laptop rucksack range is built around exactly that idea: dedicated laptop protection, thoughtful organisation and the kind of considered style that makes a difference from the moment you sling it over your shoulder.
Distinct Collections, Distinct Feels
Our laptop backpacks span collections with genuinely different characters. The Lost In Berlin range covers the widest variety of silhouettes, from structured, utility-inspired shapes with generous external pockets to sleek minimal designs, multi-compartment styles and contemporary roll-top closures. The collection is known for its matte rubber effect finish, giving it a modern, urban look with excellent resistance to everyday scuffs and splashes. City Plume takes a lighter approach, with soft twill nylon fabric and a more relaxed, everyday feel, ideal for anyone who wants a stylish laptop rucksack that sits comfortably on the shoulder all day long.
A Silhouette for Every Kind of Day
Not every commuter backpack needs to look the same. Whether you prefer clean, minimal lines, a practical multi-pocket layout or a distinctive roll-top closure, there is a silhouette in our range to match how you like to carry. Several styles feature two accessible back pockets that keep your most-reached-for items close to hand and considerably harder for anyone else to access, a small detail that makes a real difference on a busy commute. Every style shares the same commitment to keeping your laptop cushioned, your essentials organised and your look unmistakably Lipault.
The Right Fit for Your Laptop
Our backpack with laptop compartment range covers the most common laptop sizes on the market, from everyday 15 and 16 inch devices through to larger 17 inch screens in our roomier travel styles. Each backpack is built around a dedicated padded compartment that keeps your device cushioned and secure, whatever the size. Always check the dimensions on each individual product page to make sure your laptop fits before you buy.
Airline Ready When Your Day Calls for It
For those days when the commute becomes a flight, several of our laptop backpacks are sized to travel as free underseat luggage on low-cost airlines, making them genuinely versatile work bags that travel as efficiently as you do. Allowances vary between carriers, so it is worth checking your airline's current rules before you fly. If you prefer a wheeled option for business travel, our business trolleys offer the same laptop protection with the added ease of rolling through the airport.

FAQ
What size laptop fits in a Lipault laptop backpack?
Most of our laptop backpacks are designed to comfortably fit laptops between 15 and 16 inches, which covers the majority of everyday devices. If you carry a larger screen, our roomier travel styles are designed for 17 inch laptops, giving you the extra room without adding unnecessary bulk. The exact laptop compartment dimensions are listed on each individual product page, so it is always worth checking before you buy to make sure your device fits comfortably.
Are Lipault laptop backpack materials water-resistant?
Yes. The rubber effect material used across our Lost In Berlin backpacks and the twill nylon fabric in our City Plume range are both water-resistant, giving your laptop and belongings real protection from light rain, splashes and everyday commuting conditions. This is not the same as being fully waterproof, so we would not recommend leaving your backpack out in prolonged heavy rain. For typical daily use and commuting, the water-resistant properties of both materials offer reliable, everyday peace of mind.
Which collection should I choose: City Plume or Lost In Berlin?
Think about your typical day rather than the bag itself. If you are on your feet a lot, moving between meetings or working somewhere different each week, City Plume is the easier companion: light, soft and unobtrusive on the shoulder for hours at a stretch. If you are after a more modern, structured look with premium finishes and a bolder edge, Lost In Berlin is the collection to go for. It also gives you more silhouettes to pick from, so it is the place to start if you have a particular shape in mind. Either way your laptop is equally well protected.
Can I use a Lipault laptop backpack as cabin luggage?
Yes. Several of our laptop backpacks are sized to travel as free underseat luggage on low-cost airlines, making them a genuinely versatile option for business travellers who want one bag to cover both the commute and the flight. Most of our other laptop backpacks also fall within the personal item dimensions accepted by most airlines, though allowances vary by carrier and ticket type. We always recommend checking your specific airline's policy before you travel, and every product page lists exact dimensions so you can compare. If you prefer a wheeled option for business trips, our business trolleys are worth a look too.
Is there room in a Lipault laptop backpack for more than just my laptop?
Absolutely. While keeping your laptop safe is the priority, our backpacks are designed to organise the rest of your day too. Multiple compartments and pockets give space for chargers, notebooks, your phone, keys and daily essentials. Several styles feature two accessible back pockets that keep your most-reached-for items close and considerably harder for others to access, a genuinely useful detail for commuters and travellers alike. Some models also feature a rear luggage loop, so you can attach the backpack directly to a trolley handle when your commute becomes a trip. The idea is that everything has a place and is within easy reach whenever you need it.
Are Lipault laptop backpacks suitable for everyone?
Yes. Our laptop backpacks are designed with a fluid, gender-neutral approach, built for every body and every way of carrying a day's essentials. Rather than dividing designs by gender, we focus on practicality, comfort and colour, so you can choose a rucksack based on what you need and what you love, not on who it is supposedly designed for. It is part of a broader philosophy at Lipault: that great design should speak to everyone.
What is the difference between a laptop backpack and a travel backpack?
A laptop backpack is built around your daily routine, with a dedicated compartment to protect your computer on the commute or a short business trip, and a compact format sized for everyday carry. A travel backpack tends to offer more overall capacity, designed for longer trips where you need space for clothing and travel essentials alongside your tech. If your priority is protecting a laptop on a daily basis, a laptop backpack is the right choice. If you are planning a longer getaway, our travel backpacks are worth exploring too.
What accessories pair well with a laptop backpack?
A laptop sleeve adds an extra layer of cushioning inside your backpack, keeping your device protected even when the bag is packed full. A toiletry bag is a smart addition for days that turn into overnight trips, and a passport cover keeps your travel documents safe and easy to find when the commute becomes a flight. Small details that make a busy day that little bit smoother.
