Luka Expandable Laptop Tote vs Lo & Sons O.G. 2 Laptop Bag

The Luka Expandable Laptop Tote is the better pick for most commuters who want a light, flexible tote that grows by up to 4 inches when needed. The O.G. 2 is the stronger choice for business travel and gym-to-office days, thanks to its external padded laptop compartment, side shoe compartment and luggage sleeve. Owners of the O.G. 2 praise its organization and durable build but warn it gets heavy when full and that the stiff material and flat straps can slip. The Luka is softer and lighter, but its open tote design gives less impact protection and it tops out at a 15-inch laptop.

• Choose the Luka Expandable Laptop Tote if you carry a 15-inch or smaller laptop, want a light tote that expands for extra gear, and prefer a soft, unstructured bag.
• Choose the O.G. 2 if you need a shoe compartment, a padded external laptop compartment for quick airport access, and a structured bag that slides under an airplane seat.
