I got my Hard Candy iPad Hard Sleeve a couple of days back and thought of posting my impressions on it.
I was looking for a sleeve which I can put inside a bag or a suitcase along with other travel items like laptop, camera, chargers, etc. When I saw this Hard sleeve on Hard Candy's website, I was totally convinced.
The outside of the sleeve is made of EVA-Foam which is quite rigid. It is more like very thick cardboard. Added to this, the inside of the front side has a layer of hard foam which sticks out in the shape of small squares. This inside layer would basically rest against the iPad's glass top. The rest of the inner surface (top and bottom) is covered by neoprene. The best part of this sleeve is the four rubber bumpers which can be stuck to the bottom corners. These stick via a layer of velcro and can be repositioned if needed.
The combination of the hard foam sticking out from the top surface and the bumpers on the bottom surface hold the iPad tight inside the sleeve and prevent it from moving side to side. The fit is perfect. The sleeve can be closed by the double zippers. The quality and finish of this sleeve is excellent and is worth the price.
Its really nice to see a company putting some thought and designing a case for the iPad which serves its function extremely well and also fits like a glove. I would easily recommend this case to anyone who is looking for protection beyond the basic neoprene sleeves.
Below are some pictures of this sleeve.
