Targus Avila TBA00113GL — 15″–16″ Laptop Tote, 13 L, French Oak
Fits 15″–16″ laptops13 L, 0.52 kgEcoSmart RPET, 11 bottlesLimited Lifetime Warranty
The Targus Avila TBA00113GL is a 13-litre laptop tote in French Oak, a warm beige, made from EcoSmart RPET fabric that Targus says uses GRS-certified recycled materials equivalent to 11 plastic bottles. It carries laptops of 15 to 16 inches in a protective laptop and tablet cradle closed by a magnet, with one interior zipped pocket and four slip pockets in the main compartment, a front zipped quick-access pocket and a magnetic stash pocket on the back. Double handles let you carry it in the hand, on the arm or over the shoulder, and a trolley strap slides it onto rolling luggage. Targus lists it at 44.5 x 11 x 29 cm and 0.52 kg, with water-resistant memory fabric, vegan leather accents and metallic hardware. The part number is TBA00113GL. Typically in stock with fast delivery across Cyprus.
Compatibility — check before buying:
Targus rates the fit as 15″–16″ laptops and under. The internal cradle measurement is published only on the Targus US site (approximately 36.3 x 25.3 cm), not on the European pages, so measure a thicker machine before ordering. This is a tote with two carry handles — Targus publishes no detachable shoulder strap for it, so if you want to wear it hands-free across the body, this is not the right bag. The laptop and tablet share one cradle: there is no separate tablet pocket and no maximum tablet size published. Targus makes no checkpoint-friendly claim and there is no USB port. Water resistance is described as water-resistant memory fabric, with no rating attached.
Best For
✓ Carrying a 15″ or 16″ work laptop without looking like a laptop bag
✓ Office days where a backpack feels too casual
✓ Travel where the tote slides onto a rolling case
✓ Buyers who want documented recycled content, not vague eco wording
✓ Anyone who prefers hand or shoulder carry over straps
✓ Keeping a laptop, tablet, charger and personal items in one bag
Key Features
Magnetic laptop and tablet cradle
The protective cradle holds the laptop and a tablet together and closes with a magnet rather than a zip, so you can lift the machine out one-handed. Targus rates it for 15 to 16 inch laptops.
13 litres, properly organised
The zipped main compartment holds 13 litres with one interior zipped pocket and four slip pockets, and the bright internal lining makes small items easy to find. A front zipped pocket takes what you need in a hurry, and a magnetic stash pocket on the back panel swallows a phone or a boarding pass.
EcoSmart RPET with GRS-certified content
Targus builds this tote from RPET 150 fabric under its EcoSmart programme, stating that GRS-certified recycled materials equivalent to 11 plastic bottles were shredded, spun into yarn and sewn into the fabric. The fabric itself is water-resistant memory fabric.
Finished like a bag, not like a case
Double shoulder carry handles sit comfortably in the hand, on the arm or over the shoulder, with premium metallic hardware and vegan leather accents. A trolley strap on the back attaches it to rolling luggage, and the whole thing weighs 0.52 kg empty.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does it come with a shoulder strap?
No. Targus publishes only the two carry handles, which are long enough to go over the shoulder but are not a detachable or adjustable strap. If you need cross-body or hands-free carry, look at the Avila Convertible Tote/Backpack instead, which is the same colour and screen size but converts to a backpack.
Is 11 recycled bottles a real figure or marketing?
It is Targus’s own published figure and it is tied to a standard: Targus states that GRS-certified recycled materials equivalent to 11 plastic bottles were shredded, spun into yarn and sewn into this tote’s fabric, under its EcoSmart programme. GRS is the Global Recycled Standard, which certifies the recycled material rather than the finished bag.
Will it fit a 16-inch laptop and a tablet at the same time?
Yes — but they share one cradle rather than having separate slots. Targus rates the cradle for 15 to 16 inch laptops and describes it as a laptop and tablet cradle with a magnetic closure. Targus does not publish a maximum tablet size, so a large 12.9-inch tablet alongside a 16-inch laptop will be a tight fit.
What is the difference between the Avila Tote and the Avila Backpack?
They are three separate products in the same Avila family and colours. TBA00113GL is the tote with handles. TBB65113GL is the convertible tote that turns into a backpack. TBB65013GL is the full backpack. All are rated 15 to 16 inch, all come in French Oak and in Midnight, and the convertible in particular is easy to order by mistake.
Singular Expert Insight
The Avila is Targus’s answer to the complaint that laptop bags all look like laptop bags: metallic hardware, vegan leather trim and a colour with a name rather than a number. What makes it more than a fashion tote is the cradle and the trolley strap, and what limits it is the lack of a shoulder strap — 13 litres of laptop, charger and personal kit on two handles is fine for a walk from the car park and less fine for a long commute. If that is your day, the Avila Convertible Tote/Backpack costs a little more and solves it. On the eco claim, Targus is more specific than most: EcoSmart, GRS-certified material and a stated bottle count, rather than an unquantified recycled badge. Browse the rest of our

Buyer’s Guide
Buy it if
You want a 15″–16″ laptop bag that reads as a tote rather than a computer case, with a magnetic laptop cradle, a trolley strap, documented GRS-certified recycled fabric and a Limited Lifetime Warranty, at 0.52 kg empty.
Skip it if
You need hands-free or cross-body carry, a separate tablet compartment, a checkpoint-friendly lay-flat design or a USB port. None of those exist on this part, and Targus publishes no shoulder strap for it.
Also consider
