@mike808 ur breakin my heart. I feel so sad for u that ur tryin so hard to get these phone thingys. I mean, if they can sell speakers 5x a wk, surely they can bring these back for u!
@trucktipper They typically specify apple products because those are still the hip, fashion forward devices to own. You should be able to fit most modern 15.6" or under laptops. I have an Incase backpack that I bought on here previously and it also specifies that it will fit a 15" Macbook, but it fits my brother’s Gigabyte Aero 15 with room to spare, as well as my larger-than-I-would-like Asus laptop. As long as your device is less than an inch thick, there’s a good chance that it will fit.
@trucktipper@zacmil I mean… it’s not because it’s “hip”. It’s because the MacBook is by far the most popular laptop out there. Windows obviously reigns, but there are a million manufacturers. So when you ignore the OS, MacBooks have a large marketshare. So it only makes sense to market your product to its owners.
@TBoneZeOriginal@trucktipper@zacmil I don’t know… It seems like it would make even more sense to market a bag with a laptop sleeve to… owners of laptops?
I mean, I’m pretty sure the only serious manufacturer of laptops much more than an inch thick is Sager, and you kind of have to know what you’re getting yourself into when you buy one of those.
@TBoneZeOriginal@trucktipper That’s a fair point. Absent any actual data I wouldn’t go as far as to say that it has the largest marketshare of any one manufacturer, but we can all agree that whatever that figure may be it is not insignificant. That being said, I stand by my notion that mentioning the Macbook, in particular, was done in an attempt to evoke a certain kind of image. As @Limewater brought up, if the point was to indicate that this would fit most popular 15" laptops, then why not just say that? They mentioned the Macbook because Apple, for better or worse, puts a lot of effort into cultivating a brand image that positions them as “cool,” fashion-forward, and innovative, and Incase, I would argue, wants to capitalize on that. Of course, debating the motives of their choice of marketing language is kind of irrelevant to the original point that this should fit most 15" laptops–at this point I think that I’m really just being pedantic.
It’s like meh is trying to remind me of the Panama papers with all the hopes and dreams contained for real change in the world… what a dog whistle meh!
Bought the Incase City Commuter from a couple weeks ago. Really impressed with the aesthetics, overall fit and finish, quality of materials, etc. Better than I thought it would be.
Wish they were selling this a few weeks ago, going on a trip this weekend and could’ve used a smaller backpack then the one I’m going to be using for carry on
Hmmm… $25 on Morningsave, but I have a 20% coupon. Do I want this for a plane carry-on, instead of my meh Enderson briefcase? It would be easier to carry around on my work trips.

Stop it! These bags only belong in IRK bags, the end.
Bag it!
Disappointed it doesn’t have an actual compass in it.
@vinuash Yeah, in a case.
Well at least it’s not a damn shirt!!
But is the size relative to the monkey correct?
A backpack that’s $20 or less is always a good deal.
Well done, Meh.
I’d only buy these if they were full of Meh Face Popsockets.

@mike808 Oops. Thats one big run on sentence. Sorry
What is with the pictures of the outside and just a glance at the inside? IRKs are mysterious, and this is no IRK.
My white cats have saved me a lot of cash on black nylon bags .
Will it only fit a MacBook? What about my 15" HP from work? I find the specifics of fitting a MacBook or iPad oddly specific.

Question about this, which color is for sale? The homepage lists one model number/color but this thread lists a different model number/color
@maxnl I verified with meh. It’s the black camo as shown in the main page and the photos.
@maxnl Black Camo
Which case is this incase bag in? Uppercase, lowercase, proper case, pascalcase, or camelcase?
@OnionSoup …kebab case? snake case?
@OnionSoup Just in case
@OnionSoup schrodinger’s case
@OnionSoup Nutcase
Sometimes when it is hot and humid out, My bag sticks to my thigh…
@Bumplepimp yeah… I have a similar problem… Mine sticks to my calf.
I have one of this exact bag. Excellent quality. It’s a steal at this price.
I used to have an Incase bag, fell down a flight of stairs - backwards in the rain. Saved my back and my laptop. Love.
Bought the Incase City Commuter from a couple weeks ago. Really impressed with the aesthetics, overall fit and finish, quality of materials, etc. Better than I thought it would be.
Don’t love the camo, but this is the right size to be a backup/future replacement for my future daily driver. Hmm.
How does that front bottom pocket stay shut once there’s stuff in it?
@Kawa most likely Velcro
FYI the dimensions of this backpack (18.5" x 11.75" x 5.25") are within the limits for under seat bags of most airlines.
Not a bad price, but I will wait Incase I find a better deal somewhere else
@somf69 at $19 this IS tge best deal you’ll find all other sites are selling for $57 to $79
Meh, I just want to say you’re one of my favorite things. And I’m just glad I have very good self-control.
Wish they were selling this a few weeks ago, going on a trip this weekend and could’ve used a smaller backpack then the one I’m going to be using for carry on
Goid
Wish to buy it.
@sam9068 you can still buy it here:
