Puma 15" Engineer Sleeve (Black)
I just picked this up at the Apple Store in Aventura, FL. I haven't seen this at any of the other Apple Store's in the area, and this model sleeve has shown up on the Apple Store website, but not this particular color. Overall, it seems well constructed and I like the looks, especially with the black leather (leatherette?) on the bottom. It fits the rMBP nice and snug, and seems to provide good protection (it'll be going inside my backpack). Here are some photos. Overall for $39.95 I think its a good value and hope it serves me well.

Here are some pics of the HEX Black and Grey Striped case:
The case actually fits PERFECTLY, I never would have guessed it was mean't for the regular MBP. It fits very firmly, no wiggling at all. The case is very well padded and I wouldn't be too scared about dropped it on the floor with the laptop inside.

I've noticed the same thing, it doesn't fit naturally, you have to slide it to match the seams to the sides of the laptop.. Did you notice the seams were rough? I didn't want to put my rMBP in it anymore for the fear that it might scrape it. So, I asked Colcasac for a full refund and will be sending back both sleeves.
Unfortunately, I haven't heard back from them yet, as I'm not sure how this refund process works and they were supposed to send me instructions to do this.
I got the Uintah ColcaSac for my rMBP and I love it. Fits very snugly and doesn't have anything that'll scratch. Feels like good protection my mac won't easily slip out of.
You prefer that to the Radtech ones? I've just ordered Radtech ones for both my retina and my wife's MBA.
Yes.
I have had both and the material in the Shaggymac does a much better job of cleaning oils off of screens.
İ love this one too.Such a great design;classy and perfect fit for the summer.Price tag is really great considering that i hear 100$ and sometimes more .what would you recommend me to buy as a bag,i think i saw a leather postman bag which was milk chocolate brown but could not find the link
I got the Waterfield Sleeve Case and Piggy Back, only I have the leather trim version:
If I'm not going to need accessories, I just leave the piggy back at home. Makes for very minimal bulk on the go, and the materials, padding, and build quality are about as good as it gets. I've dumped water on this sleeve (on purpose to test), and it just rolls off of it. I suspect it would protect your Mac pretty well in a rain storm.

I also bought the Incase 15-inch sleeve and am incredibly disappointed by how loose the fit is. The sides have waves in them due to all of the excess space.
Ugh, going to return it.
So far all I see is SFBags with stuff for the rMBP but I'm not sure if I like how their stuff has an entire side left open.

Wat? The waterfield sleeves and cases are generally customizable. In the case of the sleevecase, there's an option for a flap, and the hardcase and clityslicker cases have flaps. Only the outback and suede jacket sleeves have one side open.
Yeah, that was one of the things I noted in an earlier post about my first Colcasac.
The regular 15-inch sleeve.

Yeah I meant the two you mentioned that are open. I dislike that.
You should've gotten the Incase Neoprene "Slim" sleeve. I purchased one for mine and it fits perfectly.
SfBags
I ordered tje CitySlicker by SFBags. They never disappoint me in anyway. Their products are well-crafted, the material is well chosen, and services are just great.
I will post some pictures when it gets here. Oh and I also use the Wrapsol full body shield on the rMBP. Thanks to this thread I scored a discount (I think it was a 40% disc couple weeks ago).
So excited

I've had mine on order over 3 weeks and they told me they expected it to ship out by the 7th. No word yet. Hope you don't have to wait too long!
Have you emailed them yet and ask why? They should respond pretty fast though (from my previous experience with them)

Someone please post pics/vid/review of their Waterfield Travel Express bag for the rMBP when they receive theirs. Looks like they're shipping the week of July 23, 2012 (next week).
