Check out our pattern hack for a different style exterior.
The Sedron is a great backpack for teenagers and adults alike and was designed by Adam, as he wanted a rustic and hardwearing design. It's a unisex design but it's an ideal bag to make for the men if your life as we so often struggle to find bag patterns suited to men.
It's sized to fit a standard paper binder and a medium size laptop. Instructions are included for an interior bottle pocket, exterior and interior zip pockets and a laptop strap. The bag doesn't include padding for a laptop, but the strap is designed to hold a laptop that's within a protective sleeve. The bag also features a small grab handle that's built into the straps. This grab handle is designed to fit 2 or 3 fingers and is suitable for grabbing the bag, but not designed for hanging or holding it.
We've rated it as intermediate. It's a massive bag, which takes some time to construct.

10-12oz (340-400gsm) Waxed canvas for the exterior and 18oz (600gsm) waterproof canvas for the lining - you'll see that many of the testers used cork or vinyl for the exterior instead. Provided your machine can handle the thickness, these would be great alternatives to use.
