No brainer

Whenever I buy a new MacBook, I buy a new Dash Sleeve. No brainer. I love the Dash — it protects my investment, it looks cool, and the mesh pocket is perfect for carrying keys, iPhone, and whatever when I go to a coffee shop.

Too tight.

The item is way too tight. Very difficult to get the MacBook out of the sleeve. It has no pull tab or grip. Overall seemed well made but just way too tight, I had to send it back.

Perfect laptop sleeve

I bought this for a friend who has been using his previous sleeve (also from you!) for 10+ years. I also have one myself. I love the clean lines and simple design that do exactly what I need it to.

Dash sleeve for macbook

Excellent product BUT I loved the magnetic sleeve for my previous MacBook and unfortunately it has not been developed for the new 14", that's why you only get 4 stars this time.

Very sturdy and convenient

Works great as part of a bag or by itself. Nice materials. Strap makes it safe to carry around.

Apple World Today - June 12, 2015

“Gary Waterfield and his team at Waterfield Designs do amazing work, and I've been happy with every one of the products that I've tested. The Dash Sleeve is no exception to the rule. I know it's well-constructed and will last longer than I'll probably keep my MacBook... after which time it will be used to protect some future Apple device.”

THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF MINIMALISM

The mesh pocket stows accessories you'll need to stay productive.

 

"I was concerned it might not provide enough protection for my MacBook Pro when carrying to cafes and business meetings. However, the protection and mesh pockets make it a great fit for a day away from the office; carrying it to meet with customers. Love it." - John F.

NEW Forza Textile

The Dash Sleeve adds another high performance textile to its lineup. The Forza fabric is made by weaving together two yarn-dyed nylon threads in a unique basketweave creating a vibrant pattern with undertones. It gives the case a classy look that works well in both professional and casual settings.

 

“Bought this one for my wife's MacBook. Fits perfectly…great for a quick trip to Startbucks or slipping into a larger bag. The new zippered pocket and color options have me considering replacing my earlier version.” - Donald J.

“I got the Forza Blue and it's great for my MBP 16. The sleeve is great for carrying my laptop without worrying about banging and scratching it.” - Kaufman N., New Jersey

 

 

“Love my vertical MacBook Pro sleeve. First, it's really good looking. And, also highly functional? That's a bonus. WaterField Designs never disappoints. I order a new case from them even before I order the laptop.” - Lee H., New York

 

***

“I don't take my MBP 16” Sleeve search lightly. It needs to fulfill functionality and form. Vertical or Horizontal is an awesome choice. External flush pocket that has expandable material to suit a 96W Power Adapter or/and Mouse, while keeping the bulk to a minimum: Perfection on point! 

Well-thought out detail matters + coupled with a picky user's perspective = A freaking awesome sleeve." - Jayson D., New York
