DESCRIPTION:

You can probably see from the pictures, the Velocity SPYDER laptop backpack suffers from terminal uniqueness. How can one backpack look so slick and be so bad-ass when it comes to protecting your gear? It wasn’t easy, but based on user feedback we believe we have pulled it off. If you care about looking good while protecting your gear, and want the attention and adoration of others, then this is your backpack.

Here’s some lab-speak for you. The SPYDER backpack features our patented CORE3 laptop protection, utilizing three layers to provide unparalleled security for your digital gear. The molded rubber EXO-skeleton on the front of the backpack not only gives the bag it’s futuristic look, it also provides protection from bumps and enables the bag to keep its structural integrity. The bag itself, or middle layer, is made of water repellent BuckBlast z-suede. The inside features 3MM padding in every wall, and plush tricot lining that prevents your gear from being scratched. For most, that would be enough protection, but we then take it one step further by adding a dedicated padded laptop compartment that will comfortably protect your 15.4" or 17" laptop, use custom molded alloy zipper pullers with locking heads, and 2 outer plastic runners for additional protection. Whoa, we almost forgot to tell you about the rear outer ‘stay-cool” pocket, a cooler lined pocket for drinks. And just to make sure we covered every base, we include a removable gadget pouch that clips onto the shoulder straps. This backpack is not for the faint of heart and is recommended only for those who can handle looking better than everyone else in the room.

Great fit, great padding

Needed a backpack to carry a 17" laptop plus a 19" samsung lapfit monitor. They fit great and the amount of padding gives me a secure feeling. Thx.

Combat Tested.

I bought this bag quite a while ago, before my first deployment to iraq in 2007. I used it all through the deployment (Iraq), and for approx. 1 year afterwords. I have dropped the backpack with the laptop still inside it off of helicopters, tanks, trucks, hum-v's, deuce and a half trucks and a lot more, guess what...never any damage to my laptop. And, never any significant damage to the backpack either. Very tough outer skin, and the inside soft material is far more resistant to wear and tear then you would think, mine hasnt torn even slightly yet and ive had it for 2 years. Definately buy this one.Its worth the money.

great backpack

I actually purchased my Slappa bookbag at a trade show. My old bookbag went through a the horrible war of corporate America. His name escapes my mind but the man at the trade show was very very helpful and discussing the product and I am extremely pleased with the bag thus far.

Great product

The quality is outstanding. The lining inside the backpack is unique for backpacks, I never have had anything like it. I have a 17" laptop and found it easy to take in and out, even when fully packed for airport security screening. The only improvement I would make to the backpack is the outside single zippered pocket be given more space so bulky items do not infringe on the space of the other sections of the backpack. Material quality is excellent and I really like the shoulder straps since I have problems carrying things on my shoulders. I am happy I chose Slappa and will purchase again. The laptop sleeve is superior to many costing more. Great product!

The Inner Lining Is Too Thin

So got this bag, and was excited until i opened the bag and examined. Let the say this first the outershell is solid and have no complaints with it. However The inner layers (the compartment when you open up the zippers) are lined with a soft material but the material is way too thin. I think this bag wont last me a whole school year because i am afraid that i will tear the inner lining. Slappa if you are listening please take a time to review the Eddy Bauer bags and see their inner lining, its much more durable then this material you are currently using in this back pack. Granted it's not soft but still it lasted me for 4 years and thats with spills and everything in the bag. Good luck cleaning this bag if you bottle starts leaking. You could have a solid product that's if you fix this flaw.

Beautiful, Monstrous Bag

This 17" laptop backpack is huge, and I love it. It seems very well made and is holding up well to many, many walks / bikes along the streets of San Francisco. It engulfs my laptop, accessories and tons of other items. It also makes a great carry-on for short trips. Stuffed properly, it can hold nearly a half cart of groceries!Note that, as in the photo, the front cover can be completely removed. Unfortunately this is done with a single zipper (odd since all other compartments are double zippered). This makes it difficult to put small items in there because you pretty much have to turn the bag on it's side to retrieve them without them falling out. I did a little hacking and added a zipper from another bag to that compartment so it is now double zippered like the others. A big improvement. Also, a mesh side-pocket for a Sigg or similar 1L water bottle would be great.Overall an excellent bag and I highly recommend it if you need a rugged, great looking backpack with exceptional space.

Are you kidding me????

This bag, for $99 is a friggin steal!!! I got this bag last week and have done 2 1-day business trips and this bag absolutely rocks. It holds my 17 inch laptop and plenty of bunsiness papers. I had 2 different people in airports comment on how cool the bag looked. Why are you guys not in more stores? Your quality and design is so much more advanced then garbage like Targus. Maybe that's why stores like Circuit City can't figure out how to stay in business....they don't stock products that are quality. Keep up the great work--you have just earned a life long customer. Thanks again
