With wi-fi now available practically everywhere and with brands, such as Apple, pumping out the latest in tech every few months, most of us own a laptop, meaning we can work (or play) on the go. Laptops are indispensable – they can be used for work, or social and pleasure activities, and with hoards of us either working from home, working remotely, or needing to make various site visits, carrying a laptop around has become second nature. But putting your laptop in a laptop sleeve is paramount to secure its protection and longevity.
Fortunately, guys aren’t short of choice when it comes to choosing some effective protection, with many designer brands jumping aboard the laptop sleeve and case bandwagon to protect your precious laptop. And, for those who need to carry a little bit extra with their laptop, you’ll be hard pushed to find a backpack these days that doesn’t include some sort of padded section for your trusty computer companion.
