How to choose a laptop bag in Egypt
1. Match the bag to your laptop size
Check your laptop size first. Most of these bags fit 15.6″ laptops. The MR 19 and MR 98 also come in 13.3″, the MR 8001 X in 14″, and the MR 236 fits 14.8″ and 15″ laptops.
2. Choose between a briefcase and a sleeve
A briefcase such as the MR 616D or MR 8001 D has room for a charger, papers and accessories. A sleeve such as the MR 19 or MR 98 is slimmer and can go inside another bag.
3. Check the protection
Look for padded compartments and corner protection. The MR 19 and MR 98 have impact-resistant corners, and the MR 208D has a foam-padded laptop section.
4. Check water protection and zippers
Water-repellent Oxford fabric and YKK zippers protect your laptop from splashes and daily wear.
5. Warranty and where you buy
Buy from an authorised agent. Our Mark Ryden bags come with a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects.
