So totally into Cocoon Innovations’ offerings. From all appearances, they mix distinctive minimalism and practicality, and these bags promise infinite customization through the marketed GRID-IT system. Basically a weave of elastic cloth bands, GRID-IT allows the owner to arrange their entire gadget arsenal—and the accompanying cords—neatly, in apparently any way they want. You just pull a band up, place the gadget or cord underneath it, and let go. Think of it as the portable version of the decluttered setup, but much easier to change on the fly.

Cocoon’s CPS400 messenger bag easily catches my attention, thanks to its laptop container designed to hold 15.4″ portables. I’m a bit worried about my smaller XPS M1330 sliding around inside, but the manufacturer confidently assures that the “non-slip design” will keep everything in place. At a relatively low price of $70, the CPS400 comes in Black, Jet Black, Brown, Red, Gray, Light Gray, and White, from cocooninnovations.com.

Krusell has a new line of unisex laptop bags launching next week and its pretty nice looking too. Now you don’t have to worry if your girlfriend or wife dislikes the colours in this range of bags since they are unisex and even you can re-use it.

The laptop bags come in a variety of fashionable colours in one size to fit 15, 4” laptops. The Radical bag is made of 100% Terylene weave and comes in three different unique designs. The Breeze laptop bag is made of high quality embossed cow leather. It comes in four different designs to match the already existing Breeze mobile phone case and neck strap collection. Both bags are equipped with a trolley function with zipper closure at the backside.

You can get them in stores March 2008 onwards. Radical messenger bags go for a price of EUR 64,90 and Breeze for EUR 189.
