MACBOOK SLEEVES & CASES

We've been committed to making products in the USA since our start in 1998. Back then, off-shore manufacturing was the prevailing trend, and many sewing shops in San Francisco were shuttered.

We wanted hands-on experience with the products we were making — from the idea phase to final production. We wanted to ensure things were done right, make changes on the fly, and iterate on the design as needed.

Our small-batch production fits the types of products we offer — well-designed, custom-fit items you buy for life. You may have to wait a while for us to make it for you, but you know it will be well-made.

With WaterField American-made gear, you get high quality, long-lasting products. All our designs are original, incorporating details you'll appreciate with each use.

We use only premium, full-grain leather for our bags and accents. It comes from the toughest part of the hide with the tightest grain so it's extremely durable.

Full-grain leather looks better and better as it ages, and your WaterField bag will develop a beautiful patina.

Our MacBook Sleeves and MacBook Cases are designed to fit best for the most up-to-date MacBook Pro and MacBook Air generations.

While your case may fit inside our sleeves, we generally don't recommend the use of any case. Our sleeves are designed with the "naked" device in mind, and cases may hamper the fitment of the sleeve around your laptop.

Besides the size difference, no, there are no structural or organizational differences between our MacBook Pro cases and MacBook Air cases. The same can be said for each size of case: our MacBook Pro 14 inch cases are structurally identical to our MacBook Pro 16 inch cases. 

MacBook sleeves are generally thin, and uncomplicated. Their main goal is to create a protective barrier around the MacBook. MacBook cases are generally a bit bulkier and offer some organizational options for extra accessories, while also adding a layer of protection to your MacBook.
