16″ Lightweight Nylon Laptop Backpack for Work & Travel

The 16″ Lightweight Nylon Laptop Backpack is built for work, commuting, business travel, and organized everyday carry. Roomier than our 13″ lightweight backpack, this version provides dedicated storage for a larger laptop, tablet, documents, charger, travel essentials, and daily gear while maintaining a clean, lightweight profile.

Made with durable nylon and full-grain leather trim, the backpack combines practical organization with a polished work-and-travel appearance. The navy nylon body keeps it lighter than a comparable all-leather backpack, while brown leather accents, a reinforced top handle, and structured construction give it a more refined look than a basic nylon backpack.

A separate padded technology compartment helps protect and organize your laptop and tablet, while the spacious main compartment and front organizer compartments provide dedicated storage for documents, a passport wallet, accessories, keys, and other everyday essentials. A back trolley strap slides over rolling luggage handles for easier airport and business travel.
