word of advice, be careful with the leather grip if you have the light brown pad
One drop of water / sweat will darken the colour....
Or in leather terms, its get patina real easy.
Mine has turned rather dark / orangey looks

That is the nature of the Vegetable tanned leather used in the pad..
Some people love the patina colour.. it gives a slight mature old used looks..
But if you prefer the original looks that it came with then make sure it stays out of water / sweat :)
 
it looks like they're having a supply issue and won't be able to ship mine until mon or tues eh. Guess i'll have to pickup a bubble wrap packing slip until then hah

Hello,
I like these cases. I was wondering if anyone who has the MBA case has used the iphone "wallet". I was just wondering if it is an actual wallet? Or how it performs as a wallet? I know it is a iphone case but I thought maybe i could fit my ipod touch and some other cards/money to replace my wallet since I always have my wallet and ipod touch on me for the most part. Trying to get things i carry more consolidated in my pockets, haha.

Malikk, the "wallet" case is what got me to order this case. Check out my review of the iPhone 4 wallet case. You can post questions on that thread and I'll try to respond or PM me.

Does anyone here have the Speck See Thru Case for MBA and this sleeve? Was wondering how it still fits with it.
 
Mallikk,

I will let you know. I have the speck clear case and I ordered the pack & smooch case last night. So I hope the answer is yes it fits great.:D
 
Nice! I am looking forward to your results. I just ordered this sleeve. Hope it works with speck ... *fingers crossed*
 
Hey all,
Just wondering how long it took for your packages to go through customs. Mine was shipped on 2/23 and at 2/25 dutsche post stated:

The item was handed over to the International Logistics Center Frankfurt on Feb 25, 2011 to be forwarded to United States of America.

USPS states:
We have received notice that the originating post is preparing to dispatch this mail piece.

No changes on either since 2/25. I live in Philadelphia, so I wouldn't think it would take too long after being released from customs (assuming it went over the Atlantic). Anyway, any feedback appreciated. Thx
 
I ordered mine on the 21st and I got this email on the 26th, I think it says it shipped but there is no tracking number so I am holding on for another week. New York bound I hope.

Can anyone answer this: Is it possible to fit the power supply in the side pocket or is it too big? I'm thinking for the 13" model in particular...
 
it fits on my 11, but looks sort of ugly with a bulge that way and was difficult to snap (and didn't even try to complete both sides). I personally just keep the adaptor loose in another part of my bag.

I think the sleeve is great, btw.
 
13 inch MBA

I have the 13 inch and the picture shows closed with the power adapter and refrigerator cord:rolleyes: If you break off the large cord and only take the small portion end, it would leave room for a backup drive, etc.... So the answer is Yes you can, and still a little room.:D

Been using this sleeve for about a week now and it is great if you need to carry a small notebook or backup hard drive around. Adding these things does add a little bulk, but also keeps it organized!

+1 for a win.
 

Well, you could get a good leather sleeve for that money.

I'm not a fan of the wool idea, looks a bit too "middle of the road", like a pair of dad's corduroy trousers, would suit a geography teacher perfectly.

But it's inoffensive and looks well made I guess, so thumbs up there.
 
Quick Question:is this case too big to carry it in a laptop compartment in a backpack?

Ill be using it as a stand alone some days and in a northface bag others.

Thanks !
 
Anyone recently order one ( say over the past couple weeks) and receive a shipping notice? I'm going on 11 days since my order, it said 7-9 days backlog on Etsy.

I got mine about 3 weeks ago. I received an email that the status changed to ship, a week after ordering it. Then it took a good 10 days from then.
 
I admit this looks nice. Is there a case out there that's similar but it has handles? so it looks like a nice little briefcase thing. lol. i would get this if they added some handles or something similar.

I was about to post the same thing. I need a small bag. Similar to a bible case or something.
