Every Laptop Backpack is handmade by our artisans in our own youth empowerment workshop in Waltloo, Pretoria, using leather tanned right here in South Africa. It’s big enough for the whole working day: a dedicated sleeve for laptops up to 15.6 inches, a separate sleeve for an iPad, Kindle or tablet, a zipped main compartment, a zip-up front compartment, an inner pocket and an outer back pocket, with a durable, wipeable lining that’s easy to keep clean. The premium YKK zips and sliders keep everything safely closed, and the adjustable padded leather backstraps make it comfortable to carry.
It’s real leather, so it comes with a bit of character. No two hides are the same, so your Laptop Backpack might look a touch different from our photos, and it’ll darken and change a little the more you carry it. That’s just leather being leather. Our Leather Care Guide has a few easy tips to keep it looking its best.
Delivery is free anywhere in South Africa. All orders are processed within 2 business days and shipped within 2-5 business days through South Africa’s top courier companies. Parcels arrive between 8am and 5pm, so a daytime address works best. We can’t deliver to PO boxes, but we can deliver to Pudo or other lockers for convenience (contact us for options).
Every Laptop Backpack comes with a 12-month warranty against manufacturing faults, so if a zip or seam gives you any trouble, we’ve got you covered.
Local is lekker. Every Laptop Backpack you buy supports a workshop that trains and employs young South African artisans.

I recommend purchasing from this business… delivery is super fast and the product is excellent. This particular bag is very spacious, it doubles as one day travel and laptop bag easily… I am fairly certain this will last a lifetime if taken care of and I will definitely return for other products. Great job Maribu team !

Really nice leather and very well priced!
I would only recommend that they think about additional compartments internally (for stationary as an example) and perhaps on the outside (one on either side that is often seen on backpacks).

I love this bag, I use it every day as a laptop bag but its big enough to keep a hat and light jacket. One small zip pocket inside keeps my pens, glasses and memory sticks. Highly recommend.Value for money unbeatable.
