I ordered the AirMail sleeve late January, and the shipping has been delayed due to an overwhelming demand for the thing. I'm not gonna take my MBA out of the house until I get a case/sleeve for it, but I'm really hoping that the AirMail comes by the end of the month so I have it for uni.

:eek: Pics or GTFO :p

Here's what I'm waiting on:
AirMail (http://www.manilamac.com)(ManilaMac): Ordered Jan 17th - No info on shipping
Fabrix (http://www.fabrixcases.com)Deluxe Case (Black Suit): Ordered Feb 14th - No info on shipping
Custom Sleeve via teerexx52 (Black): Ordered Feb 20th - Shipped Feb 20th

teerexx52's wife makes them and sells them on eBay. I happen to ask if they had a black one as she was finishing one up so she shipped it for me right away (after I sent payment, of course). I'm looking forward to getting something wrapped around this thing.

I just got my Sleevecase from Waterfield today. Got it all tricked out with the flap, strap & piggyback. Love the look and it seems like top notch quality. Now I just need somewhere to take my MBA!

srt4cane- ordered Fabrix Delux Black Suit case on February 5th... STILL have not received any notice that my order has even been processed. I just wrote them a THIRD email detailing my order and saying that I'm going to cancel if I don't get some kind of feedback. I'm not one to be sending money off to companies who show no customer feedback.

Ordered two fabrix cases on the 14th.
Emailed them and asked about my order.
They emailed me back on the 16th stating that my cases would be shipped that day.
They said no tracking number is provided however. I'm assuming they are using ems express post or something of that sort.

Ditto on this one. I ordered on the 14th, e-mailed them on 20th and received a reply last night saying mine was shipped last week and I can expect it next week.

Haven't received any of the other two although I expect the custom sleeve from teerexx52 today or tomorrow (hopefully the weather doesn't slow down the mail man).

What the hell is going on here? I've emailed fabrix 3 times and haven't received one answer!!! You guys who ordered a full week and a half after me are getting your cases sooner!! I think I feel a cancellation coming on.

I got the Case Logic 13" Reversible MacBook/ MacBook Air Sleeve. It's actually surprisingly nice, and it fits the Air perfectly.
Link (http://www.ebags.com/case_logic/13_reversible_macbook_macbook_air_sleeve/product_detail/index.cfm?modelid=101941)

I was expecting to just get it until Incase came out with something that I liked more, since I really like Incase bags and sleeves, but I don't think I will be replacing this case. What is great is that you can just expose the top part of the computer to plug in the MagSafe, without having to take it out of the case.

I wasn't really looking for the manilla envelope imitation bag, so this bag perfectly serves my needs, but to each his own.

I e-mailed order@fabrixcases.com and they got back to me. I included my PayPal transaction ID and the e-mail address I ordered with. Try them one more time and see if they get back to you. Sorry if they don't. Hope this helps.

On a high note, I finally got in one of my sleeves/cases. Actually, the one I most recently ordered. Thank you teerexx52 (and your wife). I opened up the package and took a look at it and thought "This thing is too small for my air!!". Well, it looked small. But then I remembered the Air is pretty darn small too. Lo and behold, the sleeve is a PERFECT fit. Thanks again!! :D

Well, my CASE LOGIC reversible sleeve came in today, I'm VERY pleased with it. NO ZIPPERS to get caught or break, very spongy { neoprene? } covered with a good fabric. This is reversible with either side showing, giving you two looks if you want a change.

In the pictures, the fabric seems "fuzzy" it isn't, it is smooth and doesn't look like it will snag. I can get the MacBook Air into it in ten seconds, and out as easy.

If you want to see one actually ON my Air, use this link. By the way, the Air has the INVISIBLE SHIELD on it too, and I'm REALLY pleased with that decision.

Update:
I received an email from them on the 16th I think stating that my cases have been shipped.
I wrote to them again and got this reply yesterday-
Dear Khurram,

Thank you for supporting fabrix and so sorry for the delay.

According to our systems, your order has been shipped out successfully
to you. We hope to seek your kind understanding that sometimes delays
occur because the parcel gets retained at the customs section.

Can I kindly request that you be patient with us and bear with it for
a few days more. We believe that it should reach you in this coming
week. If you still do not receive it by the end of the week, I will
log in a case with the shipping company and get my guys to get you an
instant replacement.

Please be assured that we are doing whatever we can to help you get
your order to you.

Regards,
Colin

Nice to see at least someone there is working CS

Thanks for uploading pics! I can't really tell, does it add a lot of thickness to it?

It has a good amount of padding, but doesnt add too much thickness to it. The back pocket is pretty cool, it has little slots in the back, like there is a slot for the apple remote.

All right! I think we ordered on or around the same day so I can expect mine soon and compare this to the AirMail I received today. Check this thread (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=427142&page=7) for pics of the Airmail

I usually don't go for a case within a case but I had my Air open up while throwing briefcase housing it in the car twice on me now. The standard laptop briefcase opening is about 2.5 inches and plenty of room to have it open up and start running - and getting hot unbeknownst to me. I think something like one of these would be the ticket.

I usually keep mine in sleep mode..

My ukwrappers Alacantra arrived today and overall the feel of the material is pretty high quality. Because it's sock style the fit is quite tight but I expect that it will loosen up a little bit over time.

I was so impressed with my sleeve I've ordered the iphone one too.

Received my Fabrix Cases today! They are absolutely beautiful. Fits my air like a glove. Much better than my AirMail which had a bit of slack on the short width. It does add a little bit of bulk though with the pocket in the back and a little bit of padding. I'm going to carry both around for a little and decide which one I like better but if I had to choose right now it would probably be the Fabrix Case (Don't worry, Cybergypsy, I'll let you know when I decide ;))
