great for alienware m17x
I travel alot for work and take my laptop with me. this bag is excellent - lots of room for my laptop and well padded, and an entire other section with enough room for me to put some clothes (I just took an overnight trip and put my next days worth of clothes + shaving kit) and then large front pockets under the main flap for all my incidentals (powerbrick, iphone and lots of other small stuff). the quality is first rate. I've had this bag for a little more than a year and it has never let me down. highly recommended.

fits 17.3" Asus
I bought the Mindblast bag for my boyfriend for christmas, he has a 17.3" Asus gaming Laptop (very big) and it didn't fit in any bags at the store. When I came across your website and read the customer reviews about the bag I went ahead and bought on, needless to say he was thrilled and the bag hold everything he carries and more, he is very satisfied with the bag and now I know where to go if anything should happen to this one. Thank you!

awesome for my Asus G73 and plenty of room for more
I chose the Kiken 18" bag because it was the only messenger bag that I could find that seemed like it would actually live up to the claim that it would hold my laptop (Asus G73). I was skeptical at first (I have tried a few bags from other companies that said they would work and not one did). I am amazed at how awesome this bag is; it fits my laptop perfectly and leaves plenty of room for more. It is perfect for my needs at school and for traveling. I am glad I made this purchase and would recommend it to anyone (especially those needing a bag for an aircraft-carrier sized laptop).

Great for ASUS G74SX
I bought the SLAPPA Kiken messenger bag in order to carry my newly bought ASUS G74SX to and from school, along with textbooks and other school supplies. It is a very spacious and very tough bag and easily carries the G74 and my other supplies.

excellent quality
The stitching and materials are of very high quality including the zippers. I expect the bag to last a very long time. Much nicer looking than your typical computer bag. Customer service was very prompt. The bag was not available on the website I was using (Canadian) but called and they told me it could be shipped from the U.S. warehouse.

excellent construction
My new Slappa bag is great, and big enough to easily handle my very large portable workstation. The construction is better than expected. Whole thing looks great. Plenty of room for work and personal materials. I'm small and the bag is big so when it gets packed it looks huge, but I had a very hard time finding something large enough for the Dell M6500, so no real complaints.

Awesome Product
This bag is big... and if you’re looking at it you probably have a 17.3" laptop like I do. I purchased this bag to hold my Sager gaming laptop and to also handle my work laptop and other items I need while traveling. In all this bag offers you plenty of room to hold mice, cables, external HD's, phone chargers, head phones and even a 2nd smaller laptop & iPad all at the same time. The quality of this bag is something to write home about… really. It is well padded & the hardware and zippers are made from what seems to be top quality materials. The strap can be long or short and is comfortable on my shoulders. I am a big guy 6’5” and it crisscrossed around me without an issue. When I travel via plane I simply unzip the bag as shown on the site and walk right through the scanners without any issues. My only comment is the opposite side of the bag where your main laptop will be housed the outside of the bag has a huge SLAPPA logo. You can’t see it in any of the images here on the site. It is soft and pretty much squishes down when holding the bag against your side, but it is large and to me unattractive. Overall this bag does everything it should & that it is advertised to be. I will have a video review live on my personal site www.lethalpc.com

great travel laptop bag
This is an awesome laptop bag. I just spent a week in Arizona on business and it fit everything I needed (Asus g73, many paper files and 2 external hard drives and still had extra room). The shoulder strap is comfortable and the whole bag is very well padded. The red inside is cool looking. The scan setion saved me time at the airport. If there was a 15" version I would get a second for my wife--are there plans for a 15" sized bag?

In January 2009 SLAPPA set out to develop the best laptop shoulder bag on the market. We scoured the market, and looked at many different brands of bags, including models that sell for $400+. We surveyed more than 200 customers and surveyed more than 400 people at trade shows, and after nearly 20 months, came up with our new KIKEN shoulder bags.

KIKEN laptop shoulder bags utilize our patent pending M.A.S.K. technology, which enables the flap to be removed and interchanged whenever you want to change the look or functionality of the bag. The rear section is a TSA friendly quick-scan laptop section, which allows you to keep your laptop in the bag when you are going through airport scanners and checkpoints. These features make this bag one of the most checkpoint friendly laptop bags on the market. The center of the bag features another storage compartment for books, a second laptop, clothes or documents. The front panel of the bag (under the flap) features 3 large storage pockets for hand held gadgets, power cords, power bricks and accessories.

All KIKEN laptop shoulder bags are made from 1680D Ballistix Nylon which is puncture proof and water resistant. (It's the same material formerly used by the military to make flack-jackets) Every zipper puller, clasp and "D" ring is molded alloy. The entire bag features SLAPPA's super-cush padding. Our industrial strength shoulder strap with molded alloy clasps is included (and yes, this bag is built to fit the popular Asus G73 and Alienware m17X laptops). And, humbly, we do believe this bag is a giant killer and ask you to compare this to every other laptop bag on the market.

SLAPPA custom build laptop backpacks, laptop bags and laptop duffels are a comfortable and affordable way to carry and protect your laptop computer. Considering that a quality laptop can often cost up to $2,000, you'll find that a quality custom build SLAPPA laptop backpack is a great way to protect your investment and your data. SLAPPA laptop backpacks have padded compartments, along with organizer and accessory pockets to allow you to carry tons of additional gadgets and gear, and are the backpacks of choice as travel backpacks, gamer backpacks, DJ backpacks and photography backpacks the world over. Our backpacks are great gifts for college students and professionals who live and die by their laptop. Don't let your data and important documents go unprotected. Get a SLAPPA custom build laptop backpack or bag and get ultimate protection.

All of our products come with a 180-day warranty that provides the customer with repair or replacement of defective products.

With high quality portable device protection like this, its easy to see why SLAPPA was voted the "Best Laptop Bag Brand" in the 2011 About.com Readers Choice Awards. We thank our many loyal customers for their support in making SLAPPA number one!
