Product Insights

The Mads Norgaard Athene tote combines a structured twill weave that stands upright or folds flat, with an open top for one-motion laptop access and a zippered pouch for valuables. Its 10 cm width and ~31 cm strap drop reduce swing and keep loads stable, while the 4-inch depth allows a sleeved 15-inch laptop but can feel snug with additional items. Priced at $95 CAD between designer and mass-market alternatives, it offers durability with proper care and is exclusive to Simons in Canada.

Capacity
Buyers note the 4-inch depth can feel snug with a 15-inch laptop and other items.
Access
Slide a sleeved 15-inch laptop in or out in one motion without unzipping.
Carrying experience
