I received my replacement Colcasac in the mail today. While it appeared to be slightly larger, this must have been my eyes playing tricks on me because the fit was nearly identical to the first one. Perhaps I'm simply being too picky, but I do not believe that it fits correctly.
I would expect as with any similar case that the seams would line up with the sides of the rMBP. With the Colcasac the rMBP has to be placed so one side is above the seam and the other is below one. This causes a gap and a some extra "puffiness" (for lack of a better word) at the bottom corner. This also results in the velcro not lining up correctly.
It's a shame, as the case feels really nice and looks sweet. It just doesn't fit as I think it should. I'll be returning both to the company next week.
I know a couple of people have posted that they got one and it fit well... others have had similar experience as mine and were seeking an exchange. I'd like to hear if any of those people have received their replacements and how they fit.

It is a bit loose inside, but just a bit, and no it doesn't slide around. I'd say it fits just nice by the sides but occasionally moves a bit vertically, depending on how and where you place it.
I really like the looks of the Acme Made Skinny Sleeve but unfortunately they aren't making one for the rMBP:
Are there any similar sleeves around?
I also ordered the Incase Compact Backpack but I'm still waiting for it to arrive.

The fit is perfect. The Retina MBP slides in easily but is held firmly in place. I'd recommend choosing the option for a flap so the sleeve is fully enclosed. I tried an Incase neoprene sleeve for classic 15" MBP but it was a bit loose and didn't offer quite enough protection. The WaterField SleeveCase has excellent padding (using neoprene) but with much better protection offered by the ballistic nylon shell. The extra layer (I opted for leather) on the base offers yet more added cushioning. The brown leather trim is quite dark and looks great. The case is still compact but is beautifully made with excellent materials. Real quality.
I'd agree with these measurements.
SFBags
For anyone interested in SFBags and their service, I thought I would share my experiences below. I ordered back in June, and received a confirmation email on June 27 stating it would be sent out soon. Basically I have had to keep chasing this up, and I am still unclear as to when the order may actually be ready by. When I asked for a goodwill gesture SFBags refused. I am not saying their product is bad, nor the service. However my feelings are that I have had to chase the order at every step, and when I asked for a goodwill gesture, they seemed unhappy in providing this and recognising what had been for me a negative shopping experience . That is fair enough, but sometimes customers share their experiences, and I am sharing mine and letting you be the judge:
Email from them on June 27:
'Hi ,
Thanks again for your order. We will have your order out by the end of next week, maybe a little sooner. My apologizes for the delay. Stay tuned for an e-mail with shipping confirmation.
If there's anything we can do for you in the meantime, just let me know.
Best regards'.
After several weeks of no bag, I contacted them. They emailed me on the July 12 stating:
'Hi ,
Thanks for checking in. My apologies for the delay. It looks like we've had some design delays and we wanted to make sure the case was perfect before sending it out. I'm hoping to ship this out to you on Friday, but if not definitely Monday.
My apologies once again for the delay. Let me know if you need to change your order and we'll do our best to help.
Best regards'.
I followed this up, and asked for a goodwill gesture for leaving me to keep having to chase this up. They refused and emailed me yesterday stating:
'Hi ,
Sorry again for the delay, we do our best to keep you updated on any delays. We've received the dies necessary to get started on the CitySlicker and our sewing shop will be working overtime to get through the queue as quickly as possible.
International shipping is expensive and not something we make a profit from, in fact we often loose money so unfortunately we can't cover the cost of shipping and a discounted Sleeve, sorry about that.
If you can hang in there a little longer we certainly appreciate it, but if you need to make a change to your order we certainly understand.
Let me know. I'll be standing by.
Best regards'.
I again emailed them today asking where it is, and haven't heard back from my email asking:
'So when would it be likely to be ready to ship?
It seems your email again contradicts expectations which last advised'.
For anyone still reading, my proposal of goodwill gesture was:
'Myproposal to help resolve this issue, and to help ensure that I am a happy customer and one that recommends your products and service to all my friends and associates here in Australia, would be that you ship the item I have ordered and that this is also shipped together with an Outback Laptop Sleeve for a 11.6" Macbook Air in Horizontal with Grizzly trim, for an additional $20 cost payable by me. And that your company lets me know once the order has been sent, and advises me of the tracking number by email.
This would mean that your company would wear the $29 difference in cost to the Outback Laptop Sleeve for a 11.6" Macbook Air in Horizontal with Grizzly trim, and that your company also wears any additional shipping costs. If you feel this is an acceptable compromise, could you please let me know, and I will ensure that a Paypal payment is done for the $20'.

Uh oh, that company is a darling of this site, prepare to be publicly flogged lol
Flogging
That is ok, I can take it
I just want people to know what my experiences were. I don't want to judge, but for me the experience with SFBags was negative. I sent them a follow up email being honest with my sharing of this feedback - and I hope this experience can still be turned around. But as I said to them, the ball is in their court! My follow up to them is below:
'Hi,
I have shared my experiences with others (see the link below). I am not seeking to judge your products, technical issues, or service otherwise. None the less, I ask you to put yourself in my shoes - as my experiences with this order have felt very negative. I feel I have had to chase this order up at every step of the way. I asked for some small goodwill gesture, and fair enough that you felt this was not warranted or that you could meet it.
Your promises on delivery seem to have been twice changed, and I ask you to again put yourself in my shoes and ask 'when do they think they will have it ready?'.
I wanted this to be a good experience, and I feel I have tried to do the right thing. But I do feel you have as we say here in Australia 'dicked me around', as one of your more recent emails said my order would be out by Friday, Monday at the latest. And now when I have tried to check when now and I still haven't received a response - you might begin to put yourself in my shoes and think, is this another promise broken, and why do I keep having to ask when?
I think there is room to leave this as a positive experience, and for me to share this - if it happens - with others. But the ball is in your court, and I do expect at least some confirmation as to when my order may be ready to be shipped. It makes it hard for me to say bugger it, just refund it, especially if I am unclear on where you are up to!

If they do that - fair enough. Or is it?
I know where I stand, and others can make their own minds up. I personally don't think that for anyone asking for an update, asking why an order hasn't been received, asking when it is likely to be ready, or asking for some gesture of goodwill, should place an order it last in line.
I do sincerely hope this experience can be turned around, and that SFBags wouldn't resort to this. And I am certainly not saying this has been the case.
Still I am a realist, and if you can assume that may be their response, I am sure others may think that is a possibility.
I hope this turns out for the best, and I hope my story will not be repeated for other customers. I am grateful for the opportunity to help inform consumers, and I hope to be able to report back with a positive ending. Goodnight from down under

my experience with SFBags was topnotch and very professional. They actually customized my sleevecase for my Macbook Air for 15 dollars. Actually, they sent me a new one with the customization. Communication was timely and extremely professional, and the Cargo Mambo Combo is a great piece of equipment. I just thought this side should be heard also.

I ordered a CitySlicker for the rMBP on June 21. At that time the website clearly stated that it would ship the week of July 2nd. So technically it's been only a week delayed for me, but I'm thinking they're having production problems with the CS because they're sending out every other type of case. I also exchanged several emails about my order status and I received the same answers you get. Yesterday I asked if I can upgrade my shipping method, hoping maybe they offer to pay the difference. Didn't happen, so I payed for the upgrading. For now I just want to get my case, hope to see it soon.

Just received my Waterfield Outback Sleeve for my rMBP!, Great quality and simple design! Once my rMBP gets here this week I will upload fit pictures if anyone is interested.

Thanks for the pictures! How does the case fit? Can you open the screen all the way without the screen bezel making contact with the bottom case? Also is the bottom rubberized enough to get a good grip and keep it from sliding around on a slanted desk?

It fits pretty good. Can open Mac all the way no issue. It may slide on a slanted desk it not the tacky so may want to add something to the feet on the bottom to keep it on the desk. For 26 bucks I am not going to complain.
Thanks for the info! So I guess it's not rubberized much, if at all. Does it offer any more grip than the plastic feet on the rMBP? I have yet to see a rMBP in person, but I'm assuming it has the same plastic feet as the MBA and does nothing to grip the surface it's on.
I saw the Booq Mamba 15" Sleeve.... so decided to order it... looks as snug as I want!
I'll post an update when I receive it

I bought the Moshi Clearguard and started using it today. It's awesome. It blows away the ill-filling Marware (which the Apple store had in stock and recommended, and which I've returned) and the ill-fitting sticky iSkin option (which I returned to Best Buy).
----------
I bought the Razer Kabuto but it's inappropriate for the Retina, which doesn't close properly (for me) when left-in. I'll use it as a great mousepad when I'm at my desk, but it doesn't fit as a screen protector.

bought the Herschel today at the Apple store, and it fits great...highly recommended if a little expensive.
