Shopping for a new work bag but not sure if your laptop will fit? We get it. Laptop sizes can vary, and a bag that says it fits a 17-inch laptop may still have specific length or width requirements.
To make finding your perfect White Elm bag easier, we’ve put together a simple guide to our larger bags and the laptop sizes they can accommodate.
Fits up to a 16-inch laptop
The Gemini Convertible Backpack is designed with a padded laptop sleeve that fits devices up to 16 inches diagonally, or approximately 14.25 inches in length.
It’s our largest convertible backpack and is designed for work, travel, and everyday life. If you carry a larger laptop along with plenty of other essentials, the Gemini gives you the space and organization you need.
Laptop capacity: Up to 16 inches diagonally
Laptop sleeve: 14.25 inches
Best for: Laptops, work, commuting, and travel
Fits up to a 14-inch laptop
The Gemini Mini Convertible Backpack offers the same versatile convertible design in a more compact size. Its padded laptop sleeve fits devices up to 14 inches diagonally, or approximately 12 inches in length.
It’s a great option if you want dedicated laptop storage without carrying a full-size work bag.
Laptop capacity: Up to 14 inches diagonally
Laptop sleeve: 12 inches
Best for: Smaller laptops, everyday work, and lighter commutes
Fits up to a 17-inch laptop
The Aquila Tote is our classic work tote with a padded laptop sleeve designed for devices up to 17 inches diagonally, or approximately 15 inches in length.
With plenty of room for your laptop, water bottle, work essentials, and more, the Aquila is designed for busy workdays and travel while maintaining a polished tote silhouette.
Laptop capacity: Up to 17 inches diagonally
Laptop sleeve: 15 inches
Best for: Work, commuting, travel, and carrying more
Fits up to a 13-inch laptop
The Carina Tote is a more compact tote with a padded device compartment. It comfortably fits devices up to approximately 13 inches, with a recommended maximum width of 10 inches.
It’s a great choice if you want a polished everyday tote that can accommodate a smaller laptop or device without the size of a larger work bag.
Laptop capacity: Up to approximately 13 inches diagonally
Device width: Up to 10 inches
Best for: Smaller laptops, work, school, and everyday use
Fits up to a 17-inch laptop
Planning a work trip or weekend getaway? The Darci Weekender Duffel features a dedicated padded laptop compartment that accommodates laptops up to 17 inches diagonally, or approximately 15 inches in length.
That means you can pack your laptop alongside your clothing, toiletries, shoes, and other travel essentials.
Laptop capacity: Up to 17 inches diagonally
Laptop sleeve: 15 inches
Best for: Business trips, weekend travel, and larger loads
The Camille Hobo Bag is one of our larger everyday handbags, but it does not have a dedicated laptop sleeve.
It can accommodate a smaller device up to approximately 9 inches tall by 8 inches wide, stored on its side in the main compartment. This makes it better suited for smaller tablets and devices rather than a traditional laptop.
Here’s the quick version:
| White Elm Bag | Laptop Capacity |
|---|---|
| Gemini Convertible Backpack | Up to 16" |
| Gemini Mini Convertible Backpack | Up to 14" |
| Aquila Tote | Up to 17" |
| Carina Tote | Up to 13" |
| Darci Weekender Duffel | Up to 17" |
| Camille Hobo | Smaller devices up to 9" × 8" |
Laptop screen size is measured diagonally, but the actual dimensions of your laptop are what matter when determining whether it will fit inside a sleeve.
Before ordering, measure your laptop's length, height, and thickness and compare those measurements with the bag's recommended device dimensions.
That extra step can help ensure you choose a White Elm bag that fits your laptop comfortably and gives you the organization you need for everything else you carry.
Whether you need a large convertible backpack for your commute, a polished tote for the office, or a travel bag that can hold your laptop and weekend essentials, there’s a White Elm bag designed to fit your routine.
