WaterField Designs' (www.sfbags.com) Dash is a cool laptop sleeve that comes in custom sizes for Apple’s new 12-inch MacBook, and for contemporary 13-inch and 15-inch Macs.

The ultra-light Dash laptop sleeve complements the svelte, agile appeal of Mac laptops while offering rugged protection without bulk. Designed—and named—for people on the go, the minimalist Dash looks professional whether headed to the boardroom or the café. The Dash profile is so narrow, it takes up little space in a briefcase or backpack

It protects Macs with plush lining, impact-resistant compression foam and a black ballistic nylon outer shell. An elastic top band keeps the laptop inside the sleeve. An open top allows access to ports for recharging while the laptop remains safely inside. A rear mesh pocket holds a few accessories or papers. The slim and protective sleeve is ideal for stowing a laptop safely while maintaining a minimalist profile.

Pricing ranges from US$59 for a 12-inch Dash to $59 for a 15-inch model. It comes in black ballistic with black or copper piping/trim designs.
