So, let's go back to the beginning when my friend Randy got in touch with me about needing a bag for his laptop. We went over needs, wants, hates and loves and came up with something that he is hopefully still rockin' proud on the streets of Houston.
However, his "Randall" is very different than the one we are offering today. We had to tone down alot of the bells and whistles and refine it a bit, but I think what we ended up with is quite nice.
The exterior we kept really simple, we wanted this to be a bag that could be used ANYWHERE. Men, women, business, school, or whatever your situation. We are offering it in the three current Nikolette colors: Indigo, Chocolate and Rust.
Under the flap is my favorite part. We added a little organizational area on the front of the bag for things you need to access without opening the main zipper compartment. There are two gadget pockets lined in micro suede for phones, iPods, cameras, etc. The micro suede is perfect for touch screen devices. There is a key clasp and two larger pockets for small papers or pens, small notebooks or glasses.

On the back of the bag we wanted to keep all the pockets large and flat so that the bag rests comfortably against your body when you wear it. So we have a large pocket on the back good for notebooks, files, papers, things of that nature. An iPad maybe?
Inside we kept it pretty simple, we didn't want to clutter it up too much in there. There's a large open pocket on the back side for tablets or a smaller laptop. I like to use that pocket for magazines or notebooks that tend to get bent and beat up in bags. On the front side is a large zipper pocket for things that need to be kept aside. There is also a pen slip and two larger pockets for laptop cords or anything else you need to secure. And a new feature I hope you'll be pleased to find is an elastic off to the side for a water bottle. I hate when my bottles are loose in a bag. This way they are tucked away nice and neat... and upright!
These are on a made to order status right now, and lead times are looking like early January 2012 for shipping, but you can always email us for a more accurate lead time on a particular color.
Happy holidays everyone!
