Ergonomic Laptop Case from Kensington
Kensington’s SkyRunner Contour bag is a new laptop carrying case, designed
by ergonomists to reduce the stress and fatigue involved with carrying conventional
computer cases. It features a sculpted, padded hip panel that moves the weight
of the case toward the center of your body, and a shock-absorbing shoulder strap
made of a special material that keeps the case snugly in place. Contoured, rigid
handles distribute weight evenly across your hand. This case also offers plenty
of organization for your laptop and accessories, with front pockets and top-loading
file compartments. A Kensington SnugFit Laptop Protection Compartment utilizes
elastic stretch materials and a thick layer of padding to create a form-fitting
space for your laptop. Kensington Technology Group, 2000 Alameda de las Pulgas,
