Pelican Products has introduced four ProGear Sport Backpacks that include a built-in hard case or rigid compartment for electronics and other valuables.

The integrated crush-resistant Pelican case in the Elite models includes a watertight o-ring seal—with automatic pressure equalization valve—and is designed to protect laptops, MacBook computers, netbooks, e-readers, tablets, keyboards, and other accessories. Four adhesive, memory foam buffers help secure the laptop or tablet for safe travel.
