Designed for workdays, commuting, travel, and everyday use, the Maxwell Waxed Canvas & Leather Laptop Backpack combines practical organization with a rugged, professional look.
The backpack is made with durable waxed canvas and full-grain pull-up buffalo leather accents, giving you the character of leather while keeping the bag lighter and more flexible than a traditional all-leather backpack.
A separate padded technology compartment provides dedicated storage for your laptop and tablet, while the roomy main compartment and multiple front pockets help organize documents, chargers, notebooks, travel essentials, and smaller everyday items.
We also physically tested the laptop compartment with our 16″ Lenovo laptop measuring approximately 14″ W × 9¾″ H × ⅝″ D. Because laptop dimensions vary by model, we recommend comparing your device measurements before ordering.

Organized for Work & Everyday Carry

Inside, additional pockets help separate smaller belongings, while the wide-opening design makes it easier to see and reach what you've packed.
The backpack also includes three front zippered compartments for frequently used items. The larger front organizer features an elastic-edge storage pocket, interior zipper pocket, and built-in key clip.
A side zippered pocket measuring approximately 4″ W × 6½″ H provides additional quick-access storage.
Laptop & Tablet Storage
A separate top-zip technology compartment keeps your devices apart from the main storage area.
The padded laptop section was successfully tested with our 16″ Lenovo laptop measuring approximately 14″ W × 9¾″ H × ⅝″ D. A separate sleeve provides convenient storage for a tablet or iPad.
Laptop sizes vary between manufacturers. Please compare your laptop's actual width, height, and thickness with our fit-test dimensions rather than relying only on screen size.
Ready for Commuting & Travel
For commuters and travelers, the built-in trolley sleeve slides over the handle of compatible rolling luggage, making the Maxwell easier to carry through airports, train stations, hotels, and business trips.
Its combination of laptop storage, multiple organizer pockets, and comfortable backpack straps also makes it a practical choice for office use and everyday commuting.
Waxed Canvas & Leather Construction
Waxed canvas provides a durable, structured exterior with everyday water resistance, while full-grain pull-up buffalo leather accents add reinforcement and a distinctive finish.
Waxed canvas naturally develops variations and character with use, giving each backpack a slightly more personalized appearance over time.
Please note: Waxed canvas is water-resistant, not waterproof.
