About ALT Bags

Will my laptop, folder, or other items fit inside the bag?

To check fit, we recommend comparing your item’s size with the bag dimensions listed on each product page.

As a guide:

  • Leave a small allowance for comfortable fit
  • Consider the thickness of your items, not just length and height

Each bag is designed to carry everyday essentials while maintaining a compact shape.

Sydney is ideal for larger items like laptops, while Dublin and Florence are better suited for lighter everyday carry. 

What are the dimensions of each bag?

Each style has its dimensions listed on its product page.

Simply select your preferred style to view full details, including size and capacity.

What’s inside the bag? Does it have compartments?

All ALT bags are designed to keep your essentials organized and easy to access.

Inside, you’ll find:

  • 1 large zippered pocket at the back for valuables
  • 2 open pockets at the front for quick-access items
How do I convert the bag into different styles?

You may view each product page for step-by-step visual instructions on how to convert your bag into different carrying styles.

Product Quality

Are the bags water-repellent and lightweight?

Yes. All our bags are made with water-repellent materials and designed to stay lightweight (most styles range from 0.5–0.7 kg) for everyday use.

Are they durable?

Yes. Our bags are built for daily use, using durable materials and structured construction to maintain shape and function over time.

What is your bestseller?

Sydney is our current best-selling style. We recommend choosing based on your daily use and storage needs.

Can I see actual photos?

Choosing the Right Bag

How do I choose the right bag for me?

We recommend choosing based on how you plan to use the bag in your daily routine.

Consider the following:

  • Size & Capacity — How much do you usually carry?
  • Use Case — Work, errands, travel, or light everyday use
  • Carry Style — Do you prefer hands-free, shoulder carry, or handheld options?
  • Organization Needs — Do you need compartments for specific items?

Each bag is designed to balance function and style, so the best choice depends on what fits your day-to-day needs.
