Comfortable and compact, the Ju-Ju-Be Micra Be Laptop bag ($90, direct) protects tablets, ereaders, small netbooks, and other flat electronics very well without weighing you down. Constructed with an eye toward details, this multipurpose electronics bag has several features that point toward a long life: secure stitching, metal fasteners and zipper pulls, and tough but washable fabric. The only thing holding back this bag from donning your shoulder for a decade or more is that it's not available in classic prints and colors. A small selection of prints, including "fuchsia blossoms" and "jungle maze" (shown) may look dated sooner than you'd like.
The 1-pound bag measures 8.5 by 11.5 by 2.5 inches (HWD). It has two tiered front storage sections, plus a quick-access pouch in the rear. When unzipped, the main pouch hinges open to almost 90 degrees with two compartments on the inside for small gear and an elastic strap on the flap side to hold your tablet in place. An iPad fits perfectly, as do netbooks smaller than about 12 inches. I wish the elastic band had been on the inside, however, as that seemed the more natural location for my tablet, rather than the part that folds outward.
The Micra Be's perforated foam cushioning and breathable lining help ensure your devices can cool down when you slip them into the bag. A soft inner lining in the main pouch, and in the pockets of the smaller front pouch, protects your gadgets from getting scratched. The bag also comes with a matching drawstring purse (6.5 by 5.75 inches) for storing cables, a mouse, or other small components.
I love that the fabric is both machine washable and easy to wipe down with a damp cloth for spot cleaning. The adjustable messenger strap felt comfortable while I walked a few miles one evening carrying the Micra Be.
The Ju-Ju-Be Micra Be Laptop bag securely and comfortably stores your gear, and is built to last many years. For its construction, I recommend it highly, but for its print designs, I only wish Ju-Ju-Be included a few more classic options.
