WaterField Designs has released its Magnetic Laptop Sleeve in new sizes that can fit a 14-inch or 16-inch MacBook Pro.
The company uses high-quality sleeve materials, including waxed canvas, full-grain leather, shock-absorbing neoprene, and ballistic nylon. It also has rare-earth magnets in the closure to keep a MacBook secure.
The heavy-duty 15oz waxed canvas comes in brown, black, green, and blue colors, and it's sewn by hand from WaterField's team in San Francisco. The shock-absorbing 4mm neoprene inside will protect the MacBook from scratches.
The ballistic nylon is resistant to scratches and water and can withstand prolonged sun exposure. It's made from the same material as bullet-proof vests.
WaterField Designs uses full-grain, natural leather for the handle, and the company says it's the toughest part of the hide. It's able to withstand years of use and develops a unique patina over time.
Shoppers can add a strap for the Magnetic Laptop Sleeve, such as a mini shoulder strap or a supreme strap. Or, an option for "D-rings only" lets people use their own straps.

The Magnetic Laptop Sleeve for the MacBook Pro models is available for $89 and starts shipping on February 10.
