(More customer reviews)Before I bought my MacBook Pro last month, I spent a lot of time deciding what kind of case I wanted to go with it. I must have looked through hundreds of cases, messenger bags, and sleeves. Having had some past experience with Built NY (I use one of their lunch bags and my wife and I each use canteens with Built NY sleeves), I knew their products were well-made. I really liked the simple but unconventional look of the Cargo Laptop Sleeve, and the brown and green color combination appealed to me. So I decided to give it a try.
The neoprene sleeve fits the 15" MBP perfectly. It's snug, without straining to enclose it. It provides a nice amount of cushioning both around the edges and on surface areas without adding a lot of size. The flared corner design translates into a little more padding in the corners, where you'd need it in the event of a fall. The interior uses a different material than the exterior neoprene, and is very soft, almost like terrycloth. As with other Built NY products I've used, the stitching is double reinforced and very strong. I was a little worried about the zipper, but it's plastic and secures in such a way that I do not worry about it scratching the aluminum case.
There are three open pockets that secure their contents simply through the stretchiness of the neoprene. In the large pocket I keep my power brick and cord. The medium pocket is perfect for a coiled iPod cable, but would also be a good place to stow the iPod itself. The smallest pocket is ideal for a thumb drive, memory cards, or the Apple remote.
Keep in mind that this is a sleeve (i.e., NO HANDLES OR STRAPS), so toting this long distances is not recommended. But it's perfect for sliding into a backpack, messenger bag, or suitcase, and provides extra protection from whatever else you have in there, or an unforeseen drop or collision. If you do drop it in the mud or something, it's machine washable in cold water.
Overall I would HIGHLY recommend this sleeve to anyone who is looking for a simple means to protect their laptop, and wants a little style and storage to boot.
