The Evade 1.5 is being offered in 2 versions, FULL and LITE. The Lite model does not come with the laptop compartment. Now that said, for those of you with a slim laptop like the new MBPs or Ultrabooks, you can slipped it into the rear CCW compartment (at an angle) - side zippered entry.
NOTE: Our EVADE backpacks are built with some heft and as a result the Full (version) packs weigh 4.0 lbs or more depending on your fabric choice. So BEFORE you place an order, please be aware of this.
