Anyone find a good case, sleeve or bag that will hold a 15-inch MacBook Air + and iPad Pro that isn't as big as an ocean liner? lol

It seems that nothing exists. I get the nearly smallest MacBook I can get and everything I find to put it in make it feel big!! :-(
 
I use the Timbuk2 Mini Prospect Backpack. You can customize it a bit. I used it with my 14" MBP and 12.9 iPP. I can't see it not accommodating your 15" MBA.

FWIW, I once had the kind folks at Byrd and Belle make me a custom felt sleeve that would hold a 12.9” iPad Pro and a 9.7” iPad Pro in a smaller pocket. This was a while back, I don’t know if they still do customs. And it may not be super small, you do want to have some felt around those corners and edges…
 
I use a Kenneth Cole messenger bag which has a dedicated laptop pouch and a dedicated iPad pouch. May be to big for you as its definitely a larger bag. I carry all my work essentials in it including a padfolio for hardcopies of things.

I do want to move to a dedicated sleeve at some point (which would go IN my bag) just because I am a bit paranoid but it seems like third party vendors will need time to get products out that work well with the new Air.

I want a minimalist bag for a minimalist computer. :) Along w/ its iPad Pro 11-in pal. :)

A sleeve would work, but I like something hands free with a shoulder strap and not just handles.
