The Built NY Laptop Sleeve is a trendy MacBook sleeve; in fact, it's probably the trendiest MacBook sleeve available. You can get it in black, blue, trendy stripes of red and more; this is great because Built NY is catering this product for almost anyone.
What makes this product truly unique is that there are shark grill grips on the edges; these were added not because of asthetic reasons. Rather, they make gripping your MacBook sleeve much easier. A lot of the cheaper options do not include this feature, which we think is absolutely vital. The grip will minimize any slippage from your hands, which is something you simply want to avoid.
The fabric is made from 5mm of tough and durable wetsuit-grade neoprene, which protects your notebook from bumps and scratches. It turns out that the contours in the middle aren't just there for show; they actually stretch to hold your MacBook securely once you slip it in. We think this is a really neat idea, and well worth the asking price of the Built NY Laptop Sleeve.
There are two zippers are located at one end of this MacBook sleeve, allowing you to easily slide your MacBook in (or out). In our tests, we noted that the zipper construction was smooth, and scratching the surface of your MacBook was a non-issue. We're glad that Built NY's engineers thought about all these little things before finally releasing it to the public.
One of the great features from the Laptop Sleeve is that you can wash it. That's right, the fabric is machine washable, so if you (accidentally) get any stains or coffee marks onto it, they will easily come off. Although neoprene does take a wee while to dry, washing your MacBook sleeve will remove any (questionable) odors, should they build up. Plus, it keeps your MacBook clean too!
Built NY began their business by designing a two-bottle wine tote. Because of great results and high-levels of customer satisfaction, the company has expanded their line of products, all utilising an abrasion-resistant neoprene usually used by divers. The company currently sells products in more than 30 countries, ranging from totes for baby bottles and bibs, to laptop sleeves and other electronic totes.
The Built NY Laptop Sleeve is available in three distinct sizes, 12-13-inches, 13-15-inches and 17-inches. This covers the entire MacBook/MacBook Pro/iBook/PowerBook line up from Apple, so no matter which Apple laptop you have, you won't have an excuse not to pick one up. Ideally suited for business users in the office, student on campus and anyone who enjoys travelling.
A must-buy for the fashion conscious.
