A lock on a rolling bag is not there to stop a thief with a knife; it is there so the bag can be left on a train seat while you go to the buffet car, and so the zips do not fall open on a platform. Both bags on this page close the main compartment with a three-digit combination lock set to digits you choose, and both carry the laptop in a padded 17.3-inch sleeve against the wheel side. The nylon bag adds a pocket flat against the back panel, between the bag and your body when it is pulled, for a passport and a wallet.

The two bags share the frame: two rubber wheels, an aluminium handle that locks at each stop, and a bag that stands upright with the handle down. They differ in the cloth and the front. The nylon bag has ten or more pockets and is the lighter of the two; the PU leather bag has a smooth face that wipes clean, an insulated pocket in the front for a drink or a sandwich, and the look of a briefcase rather than a piece of luggage. A lock is a deterrent and a zip-keeper and nothing more, and we print it as one.

Every colourway here is priced on its own; the YTONET lineup keeps the figures current and the till is what decides.

Questions about YTONET Rolling Laptop Bags with a Lock

For the bag you leave on a seat

How does the lock on a YTONET rolling laptop bag work?

It is a three-digit combination lock on the main compartment: you set the number once, the zip pulls sit inside it, and the bag opens when the digits line up. There is no key to lose. Set it before the first trip and write the number down somewhere that is not the bag.

Is a YTONET bag with a lock enough to leave a laptop unattended?

It keeps the zips closed and slows a hand; it does not stop a blade or a bag being carried off whole. Leave the bag on a seat for a minute, not for a journey, and keep the passport in the pocket on the back panel of the nylon bag, which sits against you when the bag is pulled.

Does the lock on a YTONET rolling bag slow you down at airport security?

Open it before the lane. In a standard lane TSA asks for the laptop out of the bag and into its own bin, so the main compartment has to be open anyway; the lock goes back on after the bin.
