I am asking that because it is hard to find Booq in my local area.

Is there a bag/sleeve available, that offers such a good protection as Booq Vyper?
 
Waterfield is on par with Booq but if you'll have to order online. If you want to get something in person, Incase is going to be your best bet as its available at Apple stores and most computer stores. I have all 3 and switch between them periodically - all offers great protection.
 
now i dont know of an alternative. i have a booq (not the vyper) and well its amazing.
here are store locations for the booq.. i dont know your location, but i hope that you find a store near you!!
http://stores.booq.com/

[If you have already tried this method, i apologize for giving useless information]
 
Waterfield for sure. I think their quality is a bit better than Booq's. Why do you need it from a store close to you? Incase is OK but not on quality par with either and a little overpriced for what you get.

But don't you think that Waterfield is overpriced?
$179 for 15" MacBook Pro Racer-X bag? That's insane! :eek:
 
I love my Brenthaven bags. Have used them for years and protected my MBPs well. The wife and i both use them.
 
I haven't tried the Waterfield. I do own a Booq bag and sleeve for my iPad.
Quality for the Booq items are great.

IMHO I don't think paying $200 for a bag is too much. I'm the type of person who would buy a skin for my laptop, laptop sleeve for my laptop, then put the laptop into a padded laptop bag.

I am very careful and overprotective when it comes to my gear.

Why not try ordering both and see which you like better. Both offer a 30 day refund policy.

Sorry if you don't find this helpful.

I can't buy them from official store, only from eBay.
That is why I don't want to buy an expensive bag.
