I trashed my last MacBook Pro.. it was covered in scratches, dings, and a few well-placed stickers. The lady I sold it to actually said "It looks worse in person than in the pictures" (she bought it at a discounted price).

I decided to be nicer to its replacement so I've been looking for a laptop sleeve... and after months of buying/returning, I finally found one I like.

It's hand-made by a guy named Alex in his leather shop in San Jose.

Long story short.. it's one of my new favorite things (i like to build a list like Oprah). If you are looking for a little protection for your MacBook (or iPad) check out the stuff this guy makes.
