Knomo – ‘more than a bag’. This is how the manufacturer describes their product and no wonder that they make use of only high quality leathers sourced from some of the best tanneries around the world. With vibrant colours and 100% quality control checks on all products, the Knomo Handbags are cool and have been popular ever since Knomo started manufacturing them. The following review will deal with a popular laptop handbag for women namely the Knomo Josselin and let us check out if it really lives up to the expectations of the style conscious female.
Why we like it?
The Knomo Josselin Laptop Handbag (product code:12-254-CHO) as the name implies can fit MacBook Pro with screens up to 15.4 inches and laptops with screens up to 15 inches. This handbag is the ideal one to carry for work or weekend away. We love its design which has a stylish and modern look to it. Coming to the material, the laptop handbag is made from luxurious full-grain leather and sleek durable nylon. The best part of it is that you will feel fuzzy on one side and pretty smooth on the other. Also, if you have felt the hand bag, you can very well notice that the Josselin tends to hide any flaws. More importantly, the leather finish is superb, which is why it is so pricey. Even on the inside, there is an extremely soft fabric lining besides scotch guard coating. Available at £100 in some places, you may also purchase the bag at much cheaper prices. The biggest advantage is perhaps it does not look much like a normal laptop bag.
Protective laptop compartment:
There is no doubt that the Knomo Josselin 15.4 inch Laptop Handbag means business. This laptop handbag has been exclusively designed to safeguard your valuable laptop from the elements. Thanks to the nicely built laptop compartment in the middle of the laptop bag to keep your notebook in place.
The manufacturer describes this as ‘quilted computer pouch’ integrated with knomo proprietory protection (details of which we will see later in the review). While carrying your notebook, this dedicated protective compartment will offer you great cushioning against accidental knocks and bumps when you are on the move, therefore all you want to bother about is looking good.
You will also find that all the compartments of the bag are well padded. The main compartment is divided into spacious internal compartments and comes with a dual easy access zip system around closure that you can open on 3 sides. There is plenty of storage space and inside pockets for storing PDA, iPod, headphones, power supply, cables and all your precious files and documents, in addition to the cellphone, inside zip, organizer pockets, key fob, etc.
Padded shoulder straps:
The shoulder straps of the Knomo Josselin Leather laptop handbag are nicely padded and well built. This means that it is very comfortable for all, save for the longest of working days. There are two strong yet lightweight top straps that give you superb fit over your shoulders.
Knomo ID tracker system:
Tucked in the rear pocket of the bag, there is a unique Knomo ID tracker system, which you can register with the manufacturer in case your handbag should get ever lost. With the tracking system, you will be confident that your laptop handbag is safe at all times and do not worry if you lose it as the unique ID helps you track it down.
Size & available colour:
Available in chocolate brown colour, the external dimensions of the laptop handbag is 42cm (W) x 31cm (H) x 10cm (D) and it could fit laptops up to 37cm (W ) x 27cm (H) x 4cm (D). We found the brown colour really stylish and elegant and will make you the envy of the office.
Manufacturer warranty:
The laptop handbag covers a manufacturer’s warranty of 2 years against faulty materials or craftsmanship starting from the original purchase date.
Overall:
This Knomo Laptop Handbag is perfect if you are an executive, IT professional and businesswomen or for simply those of you having a taste for the finer things in life and yes, we mean luxury leathers. The laptop handbag has the practicality of a modern laptop bag in conjunction with the style of quality and design. So, do you have a hankering for a designer laptop bag or an upmarket bag for a special occasion, then this one is for you! Right, but for those who want to know what or where Josselin is, it is a medieval town having castle in Brittany, France.
