Cambridge Full-Grain Leather 16″ Laptop Backpack

The Cambridge Full-Grain Leather Laptop Backpack combines the professional look of leather with the organization and hands-free convenience of a modern work backpack.

Made with U.S.-sourced full-grain pull-up buffalo leather, it features a separate padded laptop compartment, spacious main storage, dedicated tablet organization, multiple front and side pockets, and a built-in trolley strap for easier travel.

We physically tested the laptop compartment with our 16″ Lenovo laptop measuring approximately 14″ W × 9¾″ H × ⅝″ D. Because laptop dimensions vary by model, compare your device measurements before ordering.

Designed for work, commuting, meetings, business travel, and everyday carry, the Cambridge provides dedicated storage for technology, documents, chargers, and smaller essentials instead of relying on one large compartment.

Dedicated Laptop & Tablet Storage

A separate padded top-zip compartment keeps your laptop away from the main storage area and helps protect it from everyday bumps.

We tested the compartment with our actual 16″ Lenovo laptop measuring approximately 14″ W × 9¾″ H × ⅝″ D, and it fits inside.

The main compartment also includes a separate pocket suitable for an iPad or similar tablet.

Since laptops with the same screen size can have different physical dimensions, compare your laptop's width, height, and thickness before ordering, particularly if you use a protective case.

Organized for Work & Everyday Carry

The main interior measures approximately 11¾″ W × 5¼″ D × 16″ H, providing useful storage for:

• Documents and folders
• Notebook or planner
• Laptop charger and cables
• Phone and small electronics
• Passport or travel wallet
• Wallet and keys
• Pens and business cards
• Everyday work and travel essentials

An elastic-edge organizer pocket provides additional separation for smaller items.

Front Organizer Compartments

The Cambridge provides several additional storage areas so frequently used items don't disappear into the main compartment.

Front Organizer — Approx. 9½″ W × 8¼″ H

Includes:

• 4 organizer pockets
• Key clip
• 2 pen loops
• Storage for cables, cards, passport, wallet and other accessories

Additional Front Zip Compartment — Approx. 8¾″ W × 5½″ H

Provides convenient quick-access storage for frequently used everyday items.

Side Storage

Two zippered side compartments provide additional organization.

Side Pocket 1 — Approx. 3¾″ W × 7″ H
Includes an interior mesh organizer pocket.

Side Pocket 2 — Approx. 4½″ W × 7½″ H
Provides open lined storage for additional small essentials.

Full-Grain Pull-Up Buffalo Leather

The Cambridge is made with U.S.-sourced full-grain pull-up buffalo leather, giving the backpack a polished professional appearance with natural leather character.

Pull-up leather can show subtle variations in color and texture and develop additional marks and patina with regular use. These characteristics are part of the natural appearance of the leather and make each backpack increasingly distinctive over time.

Ready for Work & Business Travel

A built-in rear trolley strap slides over the handle of compatible rolling luggage, making the Cambridge especially convenient for airports and business travel.

Padded adjustable backpack straps provide hands-free carry, while the padded top handle offers another option when moving through the office, meetings, airports, or hotels.

At approximately 2.25 lbs empty, the Cambridge provides extensive organization while remaining relatively manageable for a full-grain leather laptop backpack.
