Des Mendoza’s Stylish Laptop Bags

Posted on February 26th, 2008. Written by Rico.

Des Mendoza, a local who has “been working as graphic/web designer for eight years” here in the Philippines, is about to go full blast with a line of leather laptop bags bearing her name. The two models currently available are a bit pricey (Php 5,000 and 5,500 respectively) but the bags are snazzy enough for the feminine corporate warrior. As guys, we’re staying away from these things, because we will surely cry once we accidentally scuff the genuine crocodile or ostrich leather. Not to mention it would give our drinking mates the wrong idea.

In any case, you can answer the website survey to get a chance to win a free bag. And if fate doesn’t favor you, orders are facilitated either through BPI deposits or PayPal. We do hope a full review will follow, but it will require an actual bag and a womanly reviewer. We’re working on both right now.

Cool bags! Can’t wait for the “masculine” versions to be available. They look quite heavy though.

That’s why we want a sample to review! We’re pretty sure the leather will also prove a problem for us less-than-careful guys. :)

it’s cool but i think it’s a bit too pricey for a laptop bag. what about those who want something functional and stylish/fashionable but less expensive?

As far as we know, Samsonite makes pretty functional and relatively affordable laptop bags. But, they look pretty boring. We’ve also seen more “feminine”-looking bags in Power Books, but they’re only for the MacBook.

These ARE a bit pricey. I bought mine from a Multiply store for less than half the price and I’m super happy w/ it. I bought mine at http://www.technochicbiz.multiply.com

i agree with mitch. the des mendoza bags are too pricey. you can find more affordable ones. i got mine from toughbratbags.multiply.com for only P1,500! they even customized the bag that i wanted to fit my macbook at no extra cost. truly a great deal!
