Hey guys , I just got my first Bottega and now Im thinking of another:) However I want one to carry to work, in which I can carry my laptop. Is there a model you have used that can carry the weight of a Laptop without the leather stretching? Thank you.

Most of my large Bottegas, the Roma and Rugiada Tote, have 3 sections inside, so although the dimensions appear large enough, I don't think the inside section would allow it. Ladies...any thoughts?

The Roma could carry a very small and light laptop, but it really isn't heavy duty enough to be a workhorse work bag IMHO

Hi, I myself would go for either a tote or a not-so-manly briefcase; I also think a fabric lining is better [easier to care]. Then I'll use a small handbag or clutch for the wallet, cell phone, keys, makeup and I can throw it into the tote along with the laptop. BV men dept. has good selections of tote and briefcase and they look gorgeous. Hope this helps.

the cabat could hold a lap top but it may not be secure enough because of the open top.

I have easily fit my 11 inch Sony laptop into my Roma.
