Incase sleeve for 15'' MBP is absolutely great, I can throw my laptop in my backpack, in a suitcase, or anywhere else without the worry of my MBP being exposed.
 
I am a college student, and I have a lot of books I have to carry around all the time, but I am also wanting to start taking my mbp to class with me for notes. I have a 13" inCase sleeve already, but I was wondering if it would be fine to carry it around in that in a normal bookbag, or if I should look into getting something else. I am a Bio major, so my books are generally big.

This Caselogic sleeve works like a charm. Fits perfectly, and has an extra pocket that is elastic so it can fit your charger.

I am getting a 13" MBP fairly soon and I really like this sleeve. It got great reviews on Amazon.com and CaseLogic.com, and my mind is set since a fellow MacRumors member likes it. 😀
 
can anyone provide some feedback on which sleeve has better protection for a macbook pro. i'll mainly be using it for college so i'll be putting it in my backpack and i need one that has alot of protection incase i ever accidently drop my backpack or throw it. plus which one would provide better protection if i decide to use it without a backpack.
I've narrowed it down to Civilian Lab and WaterField Designs (sfbags) but I cant decide which one. If you guys have any other suggestions, that would be nice too (something nice looking)

I have a sleeve that the MBP goes into, then that goes into this leather bag.

it looks very red in the pic but it's not that red. it's a deep brown
 
kata ~ Sensitivity V

I use the Sensitivity V from Kata.
It fits my 13.3 MBP, 40D, 17-40L, 70 -200 f/4 IS, cables, etc.

When you put it on your back it doesn't even feel heavy. and it looks slim, unlike a lot of the bulky backpacks.

I have the Mattias Laptop Armor hard aluminum case (the smaller model, in black) and I love it. It was tricky to get the pads right, though. I cut one of the pads to fit between the hinge and the back, on the right side, then also put a full pad on the right side in front of the hinge. And one set of pads on the left, back, and front. Otherwise, it would have been a sub-optimal setup, really calling for the larger model to avoid the possibility of bumping into that hinge.
 
I have multiple bags but am currently mainly using an Incase 13" Nylon Sleeve Plus. I find it has just enough space to fit my essentials (13" MBP, tickets, headphones, keys, USB flash drive, pens, etc.) while being very light and thin:

I also have a Tom Bihn "Buzz" sling bag that I use occasionally which is nice, and feels quite high quality (mine is all black):

On business trips I like to use a Brenthaven Prolite II which is nice and has a lot of pockets. Only thing is that despite its name, its not very light (weighs like 3.5lbs empty):

Yea, I know; I buy a lot of bags (I have others not listed here)
