We purchased the Mancro Anti-Theft Laptop Backpack so that our expert reviewer could thoroughly test and review it. Read on for our full product review.

There’s something appealing about having everything you need strapped to your back at all times. Perhaps that’s the logic behind the Mancro Anti-Theft Laptop Backpack . The bag has a sturdy nylon exterior and strong security features like metal zippers and a combination lock. These complement the bag’s various internal pockets and sleeves. Particularly useful is the external USB port that can be connected to a battery pack to charge your devices. That said, the interior isn’t great for holding oddly shaped items, but for hauling your electronics, you won’t find a better commuter bag than this.

Don’t take this as a negative, but the Mancro Laptop Backpack does look generic. In this case, we see this as a positive. While it’s nice to have a cool bag that stands out from the crowd, it also makes it a bigger target for theft. The Mancro bag is unsuspecting, with a slate and nylon exterior that blends in well and never looks out of place. The interior isn’t flashy either. While bright colors can make it easier to find things, they also draw attention when you’re rummaging through your bag at the airport or other public places.

The Mancro Laptop Backpack says it’s water resistant and it means business. Having had to walk through rain a few times this past week, it’s safe to say that the bag not only keeps your gear dry, but it also air dries quickly. The handles and chest straps are also made of nylon, which makes for a strong material that isn’t too hard or too tight.
