The 13 Best Tech Organizing Bags

It’s almost 2022, and you don’t quite know where your desk is going to be tomorrow. Are you WFH? Back full-time in the office? On the road? All of the above?

So you need a bag you can both bring to work and bring your work (or classroom) to wherever you need to be. You’ll want something that’ll house your computer, chargers, cords, headphones and various tech accessories securely and in a highly organized fashion.

Basically, you want a tech Dopp kit, which (depending on brand) will also be called a tech folio, portfolio or organizer. Below, we’ve selected 13 carriers that offer convenience and plenty of dedicated pockets.

For minimalists: Twelve South BookBook V2

Your laptop gets wrapped up warmly in either a leather sleeve or two hardback book covers with a rigid spine, adding protection and bookish good looks. Hidden inside: A secret compartment for your “papers.” Pair it with the brand’s “CaddySack” when you need extra space for your cords and chargers.

For sturdiness: Bellroy Marine Blue Tech Kit

This colorful, hard-cased organizer (made from recycled woven fabrics) zips out flat for better access.

For pairing with another bag: The Tech Kit by Stuart & Lau

The back panel of this sturdy and tidy tech organizer features an add-a-bag attachment sleeve (as well as a hidden pocket). Inside, elasticated pockets and straps will keep all your tech goodies in place and easy to grab.

For easy carrying: Aer Tech Sling

Multiple compartments — a quick-access laptop compartment, a separate one for tech accessories and a mini top pocket — plus a sling strap that means you can carry this however you want. 

For variation: Leatherology Medium Tech Bag Organizer

Select your leather — there are a dozen colors and styles to choose from — get it monogrammed and add some leather cord wraps. Bonus: This beauty’ll fit into an even larger tech organizer.

For small organizational needs: The Tech Case by Away

You can snugly fit a laptop charger in the bottom mesh zip compartment, while the top features a couple of elastic loops for earbuds or cords … and that’s pretty much it.

For ideal placement: Native Union Stow Organizer

A thoughtfully laid-out array of elastic loops, hidden storage, flexible/zippered pockets and an exterior pocket means you’ll find whatever you need within seconds.

For in-person business: Shinola Leather Tech Portfolio

Save this one for real-world meetings; it’s a possibly too handsome zip-around pouch (made in the USA) with plenty of pockets, pen loops and card holders within. 

For quickest access: Peak Design Tech Pouch

Rifle through this bag with ease, thanks to clamshell design and origami-style pockets within. Multiple interior loops will keep the smallest stuff secure.

For price: BAGSMART Universal Travel Cable Organizer

Built from water-repellent nylon with velcro straps to secure your goods and plenty of flexible interior space, this functional and well-liked bag (4.6/5 reader score on Amazon) is just $25.

For versatility: Cocoon Messenger Bag

The bag itself? Perfectly functional, thanks to built-in padded laptop and tablet pockets. But the included front-pocket Grid-IT organizer (also available separately) is a modular system to secure your cords, headphones and other smaller accessories.

For a whole office on the go: Waterfield Tech Folio

It’ll fit your 16” MacBook or Surface like a regular laptop bag, but this canvas pack (with leather accents and multiple strap options) also features numerous dedicated mesh pockets for all your tech paraphernalia.

For big trips: Urban Hybrid Messenger Bag

Keysmart’s water-resistant bag can be worn four different ways (messenger, backpack, shoulder bag and briefcase style) and features a whopping 20 interior pockets plus dedicated slots for SIMs, pens and cards.
