Case/Sleeve Options?

[Cyth]

I'm getting my 15" 512 SSD Matte MBP soon and I'm wondering what some good cases and sleeves are? I'm looking for something that would give good protection (so no Neoprene).

The black speck satin case looks nice, do any of those types of 'cases' provide any protection or are they almost all for aesthetic use?

Thanks in advance. 🙂

I made a topic last week about advice for a sleeve.

The Tech21 sleeve seems like a good one for you. Check out the topic and use MRgoogle you might find one there 😎

Hi Cyth,

Are you looking for impact protection (eg, padding), scratch protection, or both?

I got the wife two forms of protection for her 13inch aluminum MBP from Speck products website.

As far as the scratch protection goes, I can definitely recommend the Speck See-Thru satin hard shells. Will certainly help deal with inevitable scratches that'll start to appear on the aluminum case.

As for Impact protection, I bought a PortPack from their site as well. It's a very well made bag with heaps of storage - not to my style, but the wife likes it.
