Looks great and protects my investment in laptop
I have always bought a Waterfield magnetic laptop sleeve for my new computers. This is the first time there’s no fabric or ballistic nylon option. Sorry to say that the new X-Pac Canvas is not nearly as good as the old materials. It doesn’t look as good - looks like a piece of clothing that you slept in. We’ll see how it holds up.
Gave this as an xmas present. Makes a nice protective tote that is oversized and easy to open and close. Always loved Waterfield build quality, lifetime customer.
Outstanding product quality and customer service!
Pros:
- Excellent quality.
- Magnetic enclosure is perfect. I much prefer these magnetic enclosures over zippers. Way faster and won't scratch your device.
- D-rings make it easy to attacha shoulder strap.
Cons:
- No zipper pocket. That would be nice for some spair cords.
Design details
NEW X-PAC® CANVAS
It's the classic canvas with modern sensibilities. This new textile combines the soft touch of canvas with the high-performance characteristics of the X-Pac® laminate.
You can tell the subtle difference from traditional waxed canvas by the X crosshatches. Available only in black.
CLASSIC WAXED CANVAS
The Magnetic Laptop Sleeve in traditional waxed canvas has a rugged, yet handsome and approachable vibe.
The heavy-duty 15-oz. waxed canvas comes from a reputable mill in the U.S. that has produced these waxed fabrics since the 1930s. The canvas has a naturally distressed look with a special coating that won't need much cleaning. Stains can be wiped off with a damp cloth.
TOUGH PROTECTION. SILENT CLOSURE.
The Magnetic Laptop Sleeve combines rugged waxed canvas, indestructable ballistic nylon, and dense, shock-absorbing neoprene into one super-protective sleeve.
Add an industry-grade, rare earth magnetic closure, and you get a custom-fit Sleeve that quietly opens and closes when retrieving or inserting your device.
DETAILS MATTER
The generous, full-grain leather grip on the Magnetic Laptop Sleeve serves an important purpose: it lets you comfortably hold the Sleeve so you can easily remove your laptop from the case.
The leather also adds a bit of added protection when you set the case down.
CARING FOR YOUR WAXED CANVAS
For the Magnetic Laptop Sleeve in traditional waxed canvas, Gary shows how you can maintain the waxed canvas and the leather so the nicks and dings disappear.
Although this video is for the AiPods Max Shield Case, the maintenance also applies the the Magnetic Laptop Sleeve.
HOW TO FRESHEN UP YOUR CANVAS
Keep your Magnetic Laptop Sleeve looking new by applying wax when you think it needs a little refresh. Although any wax is applicable, you can use use Martexin Original Wax which was initially used to coat the canvas on your sleeve.
