Looking for laptop backpacks

Sorry, typo error. It should be Eagle Creek. It's a collapsible day bag. Can collapse as small as a purse. The old design cargo bag is awesome, but new ones not as tough.
On cables, normally I try to get those "spring loaded" type that can automatically coil-up when I want to keep them.
I get multi purpose adapters heads. Also I get multi-purpose plug that can transform for UK and US power source.
I buy one travel collapsible bag for shoes, and dump all the cables and bigger power adapters into this bag. It's available at the airport or stores specializing in travel bags and accessories. Last time one shop at suntec.
Another type is toiletries bag that has several big and small compartments when you unroll, and can hang anywhere, can use for keeping pens, calculators, rulers, cables, usbs etc. also.

Can buy spare parts replacements for samonite is it helps.
But the fabic is subject to wear. Mine frayed along the zippers because of frequent usage.
Lastly, if buy handcarry with rollers, don't roll on the travelators. The metal cuts the rollers.

Okay, anything that you can hold it in your hand or portable enough to be moved around unlike a PC, it will drop on the floor on one unlucky day. So, your phone, tablet or notebook should be rugged enough to withstand that kind of punishment. Unless your data is of no importance.

I travel a lot and I find that the normal bag slinged over one shoulder gets really tiring for that shoulder after a while. The backpack works for me. I was looking for a leather backpack version but cannot find anything of that sort in Singapore. Think Samsonite like not bad.
Go beach road army store area to get one custom made lah. There was one middle age guy who specialize in leather bags. Select the type of lether and tell him the design. But don't know the store still there or not.
:p:p
Another recommended brand is Delsey. I have a cabin sized Delsey bag with roller and a back strap (for slotting into the retractable handle of the check in luggage), so that I can wheel the both pieces around with ease.
Waaahh TUMI ... damn expensive brand!
Love their leather bags too, last for years and years and years.
The retractable coils for data/charging cables? They are quite thick right? Ok I will hunt for them next time.
My spare part poach is starting to get very messy... I just left an irreplaceable micro USB charger in a hotel room .. I have to get things organised soon!
At their prices it better last for at least 7/8 years! The problem with bags is very few have the evergreen look I am after. I look for simple and functional designs that can last me for years. I'm quite happy with my latest acquisition. Will try to search and post the image tomorrow.
Eagle Creek products are very lasting. I have several of their products which I have used for 10 years plus. When you are travelling you don't want to have a luggage failure. I know because in happened to me in Europe with some cheap luggage:(
You can find a list of their Spore distributors here:

Warning: The list is quite old & some of them may not be around.
