So we already have a recent thread on "Do you carry your iPad outside" now the question is how? Do you carry it on hand, shove it in a backpack, purse, murse, bag, pocket?

Just a simple sleeve inside a backpack for me. If I don't need my full backpack, then the sleeve has D rings I can attach a strap to.
 
Mine goes in a neoprene sleeve from my old Netbook inside my timbuk2 messenger most of the time.
 
I have the retina Mini, and it fits quite easily in my jacket pocket.

Haven't quite figured out what I'm going to do in the summer when it's no longer jacket weather...maybe a man-purse is in my future. :p
 
iPad Air with Apple Smart Case in Sf bags EXO sleeve in Muzetto bag
 
I use this

While both my r-mini and Air are both in Zagg folio keyboard cases all the time, when I go out my r-mini goes with me in this leather bag/satchel I bought from Far Horizon Traders a couple of years ago. I love this bag and I can carry other things in it as well but its not bulky and easy just to sling over my shoulder

In a Timbuk2 messenger bag when I take it to work. On weekends, I use a smaller messenger bag.
 
Most of the time when I go out and about my iPads travel in Waterfield Designs/SF Bags; the iPad Air in the Portable Muzetto and the iPad Mini in the Mini Indy. Usually it's the Mini which leaves home, but since the iPad Air is so much lighter and smaller in dimension than its predecessors I sometimes carry it instead (especially if I am meeting with friends who want to see it). I also have a couple of InCase sleeves for times when the devices need more protection beyond the Apple Smart Cover and the SF Bag. This works well for tucking into a camera bag, for instance.
 
Who makes those sleeves? They look nice!

THOSE ARE BEAUTIFUL. I'd also like to know where those are from!

They are from Etsy, Come from Japan but the delivery only took around 7 days to me in the UK. You can choose to either have the sleeve to fit just the Air or to fit the Air with the Smart Cover on. I believe if you message the seller they will also make custom changes if there's anything on the sleeve you want changed.
