Macbook Air Case - Thule Gauntlet Tmas-113


I was searching for a sleeve for my macbook air 13" model. My main concerns where,

  • A slim sleeve with snug fit
  • Water resistance
  • Easy to carry
  • Amble protection agains mild bumps
  • Good aesthetics and design
  • Soft padding inside
  • Ease of pushing in and pulling out the mac
  • No zip [ to avoid corner scratches ]
 My search ended at the Thule Gauntlet Tmas-113. Thule Sweden is no stranger to adventure sports and outdoor accessories. In their own words

So I went online and ordered one for my macbook air. After an eager wait of about one week it finally arrived. Carefully opened the pack and there it was a beauty in perfection
Soft inside for cushioning and preventing scratch
The extended pocket flap bends to provide an extra seal

There is no stitching on the sides for better water resistance 


Velcro instead of zips to prevent corner scratches

The larger inlet helps insert and take out the macbook with ease.


Fits perfectly and stays secure.
This is the view with the mac inside. Still very slim.

I have been using the sleeve for a couple of days and I must say that I am extremely happy with the buy.
