MBP bag recommendation?

[angemon89]

Hey all, I am looking to buy a bag for my MBP (prev gen) and would like some recommendations on one that would fit my criteria.

-I want a bag that is almost like a briefcase, with the ability to hold as a briefcase and have an extra strap that can go around my shoulder if I wanted to wear the bag.
-It should hold my 15" MBP, 1 textbook, a couple of folders, pens, and the magsafe charger.
-It be slim and preferably in black


Most bags I find on the internets all seem to be really bulky and fat, but I want a relatively slim bag.

So, any recommendation?

Anything by Tom Bihn (www.tombihn.com).

I have the CheckPoint Flyer with an insert for my 15" MBP (previous gen) & one for the MBA and it works great.

Thanks for the link, but those bags are out of my price range ATM. Something less than $100 would be great.

I looked at the bags on there and I really like the design of the Empire Builder and Zephyr bags. Those are very close to the type of bag I'm looking for.

I have the "dreadful embarassment" for my 15" pro. It is a fantastic bag.

Try the Northface "Agent". I just ordered one and will get it next week. Had Great reviews online. It was $95 with shipping. Just google it and and it will come up. I got it off of ebags.com
