Hi I need to find a backpack carrying case for 11.6 MBA. I looked on amazon but I can't really find any case that you can carry as a backpack. I need it to be super thin one compartment only kind of backpack/case so it can be easily hidden under a jacket.

You might want to look at getting a nice sleeve and use it with one of those drawstring backpacks that are given out at trade shows. Just google drawstring backpacks.

This is an older thread, but I figure I should add to it in the event someone is looking for the same thing.

Anyway, I'm using the D3 FlatPack for an 11.6" MacBook Air.

It is an exact fit, and will work with a sleeve.

I use this Timbuk2 sleeve for my 11" air. The 11 size is a perfect, snug fit and great for tossing into a bag.


That's a very nice one, DavidLynch, and what a reasonable price. I ended up getting a super-slender Acme Made sleeve for day-to-day carry. Even without hardware, snug as a bug. I've had my eye on the Icon Tensaerlite for a sturdier case, when prices come down. But for now, given that I'm slipping it into another bag as well, this is good enough.
