No matter how much or how little you carry, lugging around your laptop to and from work leaves many of us with a little added stress each day.

It’s 2019 and along with your laptop, you have your wallet, keys, ID cards, chargers, smartphone, headphones, and anything else required to handle your commute and workday.
