Incase is an OK choice. I've done a review on it today (check my sig). Its a good quality product but I am not to sure if its something I would want to keep. The incase sleeve will be a bigger target for thieves in my opinion than the Applesac.

If your wanting to go for the Incase, you may also want to consider this (I think its better out of the two - i've ordered it, should have it next week... will do a review on it).

Good review, Your accent is Awesome! :D which part of the UK are you from? can't wait to see your vid about applesac

I got my Applesac this morning, i've unboxed it and done a review. Its uploading to YouTube as we speak.

I'm 'fae' Scotland :D, cheers bud

This isn't a very realistic point. There are not many situations when you're forced to leave your MacBook alone and hope no one picks it up in the first place.

It's most likely that people around you know you're that aluminum MB guy anyway.

I think he means Incase you somehow left it on a bench or at school or work or something like that , that no one would really think of a laptop right off the bat.
 
I got mine in too! I like it, if for some reason i dont like it anymore ill let you guys know and sell it.

The fit is perfect. Tight and the pocket in the front is just the right size i got the black one
 
Before the Aluminum MacBooks were announced, I didn't know a company like AppleSac existed.

Now I have my own MacBook and I have ordered a Black Colcasac for myself. After watching both The Samurai's reviews, I decided for it. I can't wait, but I have not gotten an email on shipping, etc.


Does anyone think that Best Buy or Apple Retail Stores will carry Apple Sacs?

I really doubt that; It seems to be an internet-only deal.
 
I didn't get a shipping confirmation either, but when I did e-mail to ask for a tracking number they got back to me very quickly.

My Colcasac arrived yesterday, I'm very pleased with it! Really good quality and it's definitely very protective and a perfect fit for my MBP. I wish the seams werent as big on the inside, but it's not a big deal.
 
does the 13 inch applesac my gear store .com sure to work for the NEW macbook? becuase on applesac .com, you'r given the option of the macbook 13 sleeve or the NEW macbook 13 sleeve - on mygearstore there's no option. Wanna get that cleared before i order because canada is a long way from uk to ship back and forth

Why not just order it from applesac.com?

1. Did you get the Priority Mail?

2. How long did it take for you to get it? Did you get it from the AppleSac site?

Yeah, I got it direct from Applesac.com, I went for the 'USPS Express Mail International (EMS)' option which was $32.90 (Only this option is trackable). It was very quick - My order was placed on the Tues and arrived on the Monday. I didn't get hit for any customs charges or anything, it went straight through.

If you're looking to track your order, e-mail Applesac and ask for the USPS tracking number. You can track it on the usps.com website until it leave the United States, then you can put the same number into the Parcelforce.com website and it'll track it within the UK.
 
because it costs significantly less to order via my gear store, as the samurai pointed out.
 
hey guys.
I am looking for a sleeve with a zipper where I can leave my macbook in while working with it. I only want to open the zipper so that the macbook can stand on the one half of the sleeve and the other half is opened like the screen. Do you know what I mean? The reason is, that I am sitting in the train a lot and do not want to stow the sleeve away - and rather just leave the macbook in.
 
YOU KNOW WHAT I DON'T GET...

applesac.com sells their cases in regular 13" & NEW 13".

mygearstore doesn't get that specific.

Therefore, if you order from MGS, it's highly likely you're getting the measurements for the older MBs, and a discount.

The Samurai, do you feel the fit could be fitter?

I ordered the new 13" Original from applesac.com.
 
Got mine on Monday and it's very nice. I got the black colcasac (sp?)? The inside is a nice white fleece with a black exterior so a nice contrast. It holds the MB perfectly so that's good. Overall, I'm pleased with it although the exterior does pick up fibers/dust more than I thought. Love the front pocket though and I feel like the MB is very well protected inside. Thumbs up. :D

Oooh, fuzzy - nice! But will it shed lint goblins onto the computer?

I know a lot of born again hippies are raving about this thing. I just don't get it. Fugly to me. But that's just my opinion. I respect that people like it, I just don't. I have seen so many threads on this, almost all drooling and whatnot that it is nice to see a few people hear bagging this thing.

/end ten foot pole.
 
Looks like a grocery store bag with cotton balls stuffed inside. They are hideous.
