Laptop Cases Go Green

An ancient Chinese proverb advises, "If I keep a green bough in my heart, the singing bird will come." Here at Kolobags, we think, "If I keep a green laptop bag in my closet, the glorious sun will come." Winter is blah, but there’s something about the verdant shade that inspires whimsy, silliness, and surprise. So shake out your winter blues and go green, live green, buy green—and the singing bird will come, well, at least until spring arrives.

The leafy green hue of Casauri's portfolio valise will bring the lushness and playfulness of springtime right to your office. Compact and slim — perfect for the gal who doesn't drop the whole kitchen sink into her bag — this viridescent laptop case has four compartments, and an exterior pocket for peripherals. And the best part? It's made of water resistant fabric, perfect for April showers in January. Fits screens up to 15.4 inches. Also available in eggplant, aquamarine, pale pink, and sun stripes.
