The Commuter Sleeve

A sleeve when that’s all you need. A briefcase when it isn’t.

  • Three-sided zipper expands it from 1.5″ to 3″
  • Fits a 16″ laptop
    Waterproof zipper
  • Impact-absorbing foam protects the tech
  • Carry handles, plus a back handle to lift it out of The Backpack
  • External slip pocket for a passport
  • Fits inside every Discommon travel bag

There's something to be said for a minimal laptop sleeve—until you need to carry it across town, or bring a few things to a meeting, and suddenly you're wishing it had handles.

The Commuter Sleeve picks up where the traditional sleeve leaves off, with a clean profile, proper carry handles, and a three-sided expansion zipper that turns the whole thing into a small briefcase.

Zipped down, it's a sleeve. Zip it open, and there's room for headphones, a mouse, an iPad alongside your MacBook, or even a slim sweater. Internal impact-absorbing foam protects your tech, while an external slip pocket keeps the things you reach for most—your passport, for instance—right where you need them.

Waterproof tech fabric on the outside. Signature Oslo blue on the inside. A small leather pocket for your AirTag, because losing your bag shouldn't be part of the adventure. And a handle on the back so you can lift it out of The Backpack with ease.

FAQ

How does the expansion zipper work?

A three-sided zipper expands the sleeve from 1.5 to 3 inches deep, transforming it from a slim laptop sleeve to a compact briefcase with room for daily essentials. 

Is The Commuter Sleeve waterproof?

The exterior is made of a coated, waterproof technical fabric. The zipper on the laptop compartment is waterproof. However, the complete bag is not guaranteed to be waterproof, so we recommend avoiding dunking it in the pool. 

What if it is not right for me?

Return it unused within 30 days, for any reason. Every bag is covered by a 2-year warranty on materials and build.
