Cache 13c / Macboo Pro 14 seem to work great in a Stowaway!
the drop-down menu for the bags listed as fitting the 13C cache — do not list the 13C as an option? Does it fit, or not?
Will a MacBook Pro 16 and IPad Pro fit in a techonaut 30?
Thanks

TOM BIHN replied:
Yes it will and with room to spare! :)
Will the 14" fit in either the Daylight Backpack or the Medium/Large Cafe Bags?

TOM BIHN replied:
Daylight Backpack, yes! Not the Medium Cafe, but probably would fit in the Large Cafe.
My Synic 30 holds the MacBook Pro 16 (2021) with room to spare.
My larger Legion 5 Pro (16”) also fits, but is difficult to remove through the zippered side opening.
With either laptop, the compression straps don’t tighten enough to make a difference. I’m not sure what they’re supposed to do.

TOM BIHN replied:
Hi Guy: the compression straps in the main compartment of the Synik are intended to be used to strap folded and/or rolled or bundled clothing inside the main compartment. It’s a way of offering some optional, included organization for clothes. Hope this helps a bit!
