Got the midnight blue sleeve today. It is pricey, but the quality is excellent, even for an Apple product. The iPad with Smart Keyboard fits very well. It might be a tad snug, but with use, it should be perfect.
 
Picked up one of these through sort of a circuitous route - terrific sleeve, the leather is absolutely amazing, and (despite what others said) I think it fits the 'naked' 10.5" Pro really well. That said, I never took it "out into the wild," just tried it once. But since I have no real intention of getting the Pencil, thinking I will try to sell and get cash as opposed to GCs.
 
The Apple leather sleeve is so overpriced in my opinion. It is a brutal upcharge. I bought one at launch to try, but then had to immediately return it when I realized how bad it was, with how thin, flimsy and how loose the iPad actually fit into the sleeve.
 
i saw it at the store today, checked it out, laughed and left like who do they think they are. Louis Vuitton? it even felt kinda cheap, a bit like my 99 cent mousepad at work. no offense

I have been trying to tell this to people for a while now, lol.
 
I'm tempted very tempted to get that leather sleeve for my 12.9 iPad especially with the pencil holder. What is holding me back is the price tag I think $149 is way too steep. Anyone here bought it? If so is it worth the tag? Any photos? Especially with the iPad in place?

Thanks for any help
That price makes me want to see how much my local leather guy would charge. I know he makes badass holsters.
 
I purchased one in black, yesterday. It fits nicely with the iPad Smart Cover.

It really depends on your purpose. I purchased mine to use at home, so that when I set my iPad down for the night against my night table, the back will not be scratched or when I need to set my iPad on the counter, when charging, i do not have to worry about it bring scratched.

If I were using the sleeve to carry it around outside the house, I would look for something more substantial.

On the rare occasions that I will be taking my 12.9 out of the house, I will put it in the sleeve and then into my leather Muzetto bag.

I like the pencil holder and the fact that the sleeve is fairly light.

I bought one today from a USA seller. Will post back once I receive. Figured for $14 it was worth the risk.

End up getting it? Where was the USA seller?

I got mine today. Its nice :) 8 Euro on eBay Germany tho it was the same chinese seller. Wouldnt be surprised if they are made at the same factory tbh lol
