Check the inner dimensions of the sleeve though. These are not specifically made for the new MacBook Pro's.

I've compared the dimensions of the 14" Macbook with the inner dimensions of the sleeve I've linked and they matched.

They have several sizes, so I'd recommend you to do the same. Else the sleeve might be a little too big/small.

I want to buy one of those Waterfield cases but SHEESH, those are eye watering prices for a case.
Dashfield Sleeve is $90.
I guess it's worth it if you carry your laptop everywhere.

I just picked up this sleeve for the 14". It says for a 12" Macbook, but the dimensions should work and the review; albeit in French confirm the bigger size:

It's not tight at all. There's more than enough clearance for the zippers. It really is a perfect fit. Hope the photos help.

If anyone else is going with the Native Union, I just ordered one from Amazon with Prime shipping that arrives on Saturday. Quicker and cheaper (if you're a Prime customer) than the NU website.

I just received this for my 14" and it is literally perfect: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0732PH82D/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=A3CMBNYEZ3CHH3&psc=1

And yes that is the 11.6-12.5 inch version. I dont know why they labelled it for that size, but if you look at the internal dimensions it is perfect.

Fits my 14" snug with no extra room to move around which is exactly what I wanted. The vertical oriented handle is also something I never knew I needed but it is amazing because I put my laptop into my backpack vertically so it makes it easier to take out

Let us know how it fits!

It’s a decent fit; it doesn’t close 100% perfectly but for the price, it’ll do what I want it to protect from incidental bumps and scratches while carrying it in/out of a bag. Probably will pickup an incase sleeve when they’re inevitably available, but for now this will do!

Saw some keyboard protectors for the newer MacBook 14”/16” models (or at least they said they were for the new models) on Amazon. Dare I hope for hard snappy cases following soon? It’s a waiting game at this point, I know. ?

Just to confirm, you chose the 11.6-12.5” size and it fit your 14” perfectly? How does the sleeve feel with the charger and whatnot inside the zippers?

Not sure if anyone else has posted this yet, but having just got my 14" MBP yesterday I was pleasantly surprised to find that the Incase sleeve for my old 13" MBP fits just fine, slightly tighter but it does fit without stretching. Hope this saves somebody else some money :)

My 14" MBP has shipped so I decided to order a case for it. Not much is available - yet. I plan to order the sleeve from Amazon that @BigDickEnergy ordered. It will do the job until TYTX comes out with my favorite cover case.

I love the leather covers and I can leave it on plus it helps cushion the palm areas.

I just bought and received this Native Union sleeve. It's the tiniest bit tight, but because I generally don't like zippers near my MacBook Pros (which is why I loved the Incase icon sleeve). But overall, very good.
