Can a 17in laptop fit? I want a tactical bag that's still slim but could hold my 17in laptop.

My 17in HP fits in the bag but not in the sleeve attached inside, however my 15 1/2" ThinkPad fits in the sleeve real smooth and stable.

The largest laptop I own is 16". It fits with a little room to spare. In my opinion a 17" should fit. It would be snug but I think it would fit.

Quite honestly I could barely fit a 15 inch PC in there but I have heard 17 in Macs fit.

Yes. I fit my laptop (15", not sure if 17+" would fit) in the laptop pocket, as well as my tablets (iPad & Nexus 7), 3DS XL, PSP, and still have plenty of room for books, folders, etc. It is possible to overstuff it, but you'd need a lot of stuff.

I would say yes! My laptop is 17.4 inches and it still has a little space for other things. I would get the 17inch case only if you will be putting in additional things. I recommend buying something closer to your laptop size. Hoped this helped!

I have the 17" for a 16" laptop. The laptop compartment will really only fit the laptop and a notebook regardless of which one you get. As far as the main compartment it is also a little small, but it can fit a charger and some peripherals. This isn't the biggest bag but it has enough space to transport your laptop and a few extras.

I have a 17" laptop that fits just fine in the intended sleeve at the front of the case. It was one of the reasons I chose this bag.

I have no doubt your laptop will fit. Mine is 17" and fit with a little bit of space leftover.

I have a 15 inch laptop and it fits perfect. A 17inch would hang over the sides, but I think it would still work. I love this thing.

Yes. Although bag can hold a 17 inch laptop, there is little padding. Bag made for books and files.

Alienware M17xR4 will not fit. I can see where many 17" laptops would fit tightly, but not all 17" laptops will fit. Otherwise it's a very nice bag.

Wow! I thought I had a big laptop! Mine is 16.5" x 11" and it fits fine. When I put my ruler in the case it looks like yours might just barely fit but it will be tight. It's the 17 1/4" part that I'm worried about. The depth and width should be fine. If they have a slightly bigger backpack, you might be happier with that. Or, you can order it and if you aren't satisfied, you can just return it. It is a really nice bag, but your laptop needs to fit properly.

im not sure about the 17in laptop but i think so. We have had 3 of these bags and just love them . Fits lost of text books and is durable.

Two 17" laptops could fit but it will be very snug. The bag is not made for 17" laptops.

I carry around my business laptop (HP Probook 6570b) in it all the time, and there is room to spare. The laptop is a 15" model, so I think your 17.5" should fit. I would measure the bag but I don't have a tape measure on me.

I don't know, I have a 15" laptop and it fits in the bag perfectly with room to spare, so I think it would hold a 17" laptop as this is a very big bag.

I don't have a 17 inch laptop, but i would say that there is MORE than enough space for one. This is a pretty big backpack.

I just received the professional gear back pack and I can tell you that the entire bag is only 17in. tall as measured from the out side. As best as I can measure the inside lap top compartment, I can only safely say that it is 16 1/2in. tall and only 10 1/2in. wide. Given a 1.75 in. thickness for computer, it would be at tight fit for anything close to 17in. Therefor I would recommend nothing larger then a 16in. lap top. Steve.

No, unfortunately it will not fit a 17" laptop. You'll have to move up to the 5.11 Tacticle Rush 24 Backpack.
