How Do You Convert the Duane from Briefcase to Backpack?
Convert in seconds: pull out the padded backpack straps from their hideaway compartment to wear it as a backpack, or stow them away and carry it by the padded handles or the removable, adjustable shoulder strap as a briefcase or messenger-style bag. One bag, three carry modes.
Does the Duane Fit a 16 Inch MacBook?
The fully padded compartment is sized for laptops up to 15.6". A 16" MacBook Pro is a tight fit and may not close fully – for 16" laptops, consider the Re:fresh Backpack (fits up to 16").
Can the Duane Be Worn as a Messenger?
Yes – attach the removable, adjustable shoulder strap to carry it messenger-style, or use the padded handles for briefcase carry or stowed straps for backpack carry.
