Default I bought this Incase case today

I got the 13" Nylon Sleeve Plus at the Apple store today. I got the gray. It is really nice. I was going to get a neoprene sleeve, but they did not have any 13" except in white. I think I will like this a lot better. I like how the little handles can be shoved away if you are using the shoulder strap. It has a few pockets for wires, etc, but not too much room if you want to travel light. The inside is a really soft fur. I think it is also small enough that you could shove the whole thing in a bigger messenger bag or backpack if you needed to travel with more stuff.

That looks really nice. I was going to get this for my MBP, but they were out so I ended up with a neoprene sleeve. You know how impatient you can be when you get something new and want accessories to go with it. The sleeve is OK, but I like something with handles. Carrying a laptop around like a book gets old quick. This will be on my list for next case. Looks good.

i love incase macbook cases. very high quality. I got a messenger sling for my MBP that is PERFECT for my needs. And it's nice knowing your Mac is comfy resting in a womb of soft faux-fur.

EDIT

well, it looks like it's been discontinued, but heree's a pic.

Very nice. I remember now that when you posted that you got this case. I am very impressed with the detailing and quality of the product that I have. How has yours held up? Any fraying? Do you use it daily? I am planning on using mine occasionally, since I do not need to take it work.

I think they discontinue models so that people will have more motivation to buy the newer model.

If you get it you will not be disappointed. I think that the $59.95 is a little high, but I think it is very well made and suits my needs well.

well, i used it every day for school for about two months, and it held up great. Since summer hit, it has gotten a bit of a rest, so i'm really only using it maybe 4 days a week... no complaints so far.

initially the price seems a little high, but the vertical sling was exactly what i was looking for in a case, stylish, well built, and a high attention to detail. And it's the perfect size to hold the MBP, AC adapter, and a days worth of Books and notes.

That one is also nice. My SIL has a small Timbuk2 bag that she uses as a diaper bag for her baby. It is very well made- she drags it everywhere!
