Apple announced the new MacBook Airs this morning and Waterfield has a new design that will make protecting it on the go simple and stylish. The new Waterfield Smart Case for MacBook Air is a simple but effective sleeve for both the 11″ and 13″ MBA. It features the company’s excellent build-quality along with a style that belies its hardcore protective features. Among those features: a plastic insert that shields both sides and the bottom of the MBA and a snug fit that will keep the laptop from sliding out. In addition there is a mesh pocket that expands if you need to carry something but sits flat when empty. I’ve used the Smart Case for iPad and have been impressed by the simple but excellent design.
Smart Case Features:
Two sizes: Custom fitted to 11.6 or 13.1 inch MacBook Air
Light and protective
Water-resistant, nylon exterior
Padded interior
Ultrasuede®, scratch-free liner that helps remove fingerprints
Eco-friendly, distressed brown leather flanks sides
High-impact, rigid, plastic inserts for additional protection
Stretch back pocket to hold power adapter and cables
Six color choices: Black, Copper, Flame, Green, Pearl or Pine
Here’s a quick video look.
The MacBook Air Smart Case is available now from sfbags.com for the 11-inch at $79 and for the 13-inch at $89.
