Best 11" MacBook Air Sleeve

I got my wife a laptop sleeve from sfbags.com. It looks great and is handy as you can also get it with a strap and a piggyback pouch.
 
I'm looking for one as well.

I'm surprised that Apple stores do not yet have any cases for the 11.6" MBA.
Even more amazed that Bestbuy doesn't have any cases that fit the 11.6" MBA. I would have thought some generic netbook sleeve would work, but not the ones at the Bestbuy i went to today.

I've seen lots of sleeves for sale on eBay, but the aspect ratio of the MBA is more extreme, so its likely the sleeves won't fit the MBA.

Some of the eBay sleeves are really cheap. Anyone know of one that fits?
 
Does the charger fit in the Sleeve Case's back pocket or do you need the piggy to carry the charger?

Piggy is not my style.

It would most likely fit if you were to get the horizontal style. I prefer vertical and so I go with the piggyback (both for the MBA as well as my MBP sleeves).

Don't worry OP, I like it. Liked their products and couldn't decide which product to get it for... so when I got my MBA 11, found it the perfect opportunity to get a sleeve from Hard Graft.
It should be here on Monday, was suppose to be here on Thursday, but UPS sucks! I will post pictures and a review!
 
My sfbags, WaterField Designs Vertical Suede Sleeve just shipped tonight (er, well yesterday now since it's after midnight I guess) will let you all know what I think when I get it!
 
I love the Jolioriginal sleeve that I'm testing at the moment :)

The sleeve from SFbags.com doesn't come with a back pocket despite what their web site says. I was a little disappointed in this. The sleeve is very nice though.

Which sleeve did you get? Their suede jacket sleeves don't have a pocket but their sleeve cases do.

I received mine yesterday and it looks awesome. The air fits snuggly, its light and well pagged, and the optional strap is very versitile. The bag really rocks!

Optional strap? I got the basic sleeve, suede... not really a bag, literally just a sleeve.

Oh, they have an envelope padded sleeve on that site too. That is what I got and you can add a strap for an extra cost. I saw the sleeve, but it didnt look like it really protected anything.
