Golla Bags
Reviewed by Angie Kibiloski
These are a lot of companies
who debuted new lines of laptop bags and other carrying cases this year, but one
of my favorites is Golla, a Finland based company, whose high quality
products are not only stylish, but comfortable to carry as well. Golla is
a bright, fresh company, whose personality is reflected in its designs. Whatever
mobile device you have, Golla has a case that lets you safely and
fashionably wrap it up. Express your style with one of these attractive bags,
and your portable electronics will never be boring again. Each model of bag
comes in a variety of unique designs.
I have personally used both
the Laptop Sleeve (Retail $39.99) and the Music Bag (Retail $16.99) to house my
cell phone, and I am confident carrying both, knowing that my laptop and cell
are cushioned and secure. The Laptop Sleeve has a fitted structure that hugs and
supports my laptop, ample padding, and a handle on the top, which slides back
into the body of the bag when not in use. It is also nicely light weight. The
Music Bag, which also works as a cell phone holder, has 2 extra small pockets to
store things like headphone or a USB connector, and attractive corduroy lining
inside the flap, which closes securely with Velcro. You can throw this little
case in your purse, or use the metal clip on the top to attach it to your belt.
Another Editor has used the Meteo Laptop Bag (Retail $69.99), and found it to be
very comfortable due to its light weight and convenience, with 2 padded
compartments, 2 internal zipper pockets, and a drawstring closure inside the top
flap, to further secure the laptop when traveling.
The wide ranging Golla
product line consists of small device bags like the slim mobile stocking cap or
corduroy lined music bag for you iPod or cell phone, mid-sized bags like the
digital camera or game system cases, and large bags like the sleeve, courier
bag, or backpack for your laptop. Each model makes a statement in a variety of
cool colors and designs. Coming this summer is the Black line which, as it
sounds, is all black and very classy. Each of these products is strongly built,
with double stitching and water repellent fabrics, providing superior protection
for your devices. Show off your personality and style by choosing a Golla
bag for all of your portable electronics.
