4. Modoker Vintage Laptop Backpack
All of the backpacks listed above are great, but they all suffer from the same pitfall: they’re not particularly exciting to look at.

Fortunately, the Modoker Vintage Laptop Backpack combines both functionality and style. The Modoker Laptop backpack has a vintage styling for those looking to compliment their sense of fashion. However, the Modoker backpack isn’t just about looks. It features compartments dedicated for your tech gear, like a fully padded laptop sleeve capable of accommodating computers up to 15 inches.
