Incase neoprene sleeve for MacBook 13

I don't have the current version, but I have the one designed for the original MacBook Air. It fit the older one slightly better but works with either. It's a snug fit, and it takes a little while to get used to it. The main thing is that getting the top part of the flap over the notebook takes a bit of work at first until the fibers are broken in a little.
That said, it's a good solution for protecting the MacBook Air inside another bag, such as the front pocket of a notebook case or the flap of a suitcase.
Pretty sure it will fine but it won't be a tight fit, obviously. Would make a nice case if you're planning to use a thin sleeve on the Air.
Now I know this thread says 13 but I have the 11 and it fits great. Here are a few pics...

It's the one with a zipper

Will the zipper scratch it?

I didn't catch the "MacBook" in the title of your original post. I was thinking the sleeve for the 13" MacBook Air. That one is a tight fit. I don't have any experience with the one for the base MacBook.
i have the 13" version for my air, it fits well 🙂
a tiny tiny bit tight but, as long as it fits i'm not fussed!

Yeah, I peeped it out at the Apple Store, and I just think its too tight, especially since I want a sleeve that I can quickly pull the Air out of with much hassle.
I just got one the other day
its from the new stock, I had one previously when I first bought my mba in nov. was too tight, returned it, and the new one fits fine.
