I was a fan of hard shells. With all these problems.
And then I discovered 'skins'.
Yes, these are the most gentle approach for some kind of protection for the mbp.
Got a tip for us?

I usually apply a skin just to keep the hardshell from rubbing on things.

The Incase ones (the woolen ones, obviously, but also the "dotted" ones I figure)?

How tight was the fit? I bought two in the 14" size in two separate occasions and so far both have been way too tight of a fit. I felt uncomfortable using them.
I don't know why but I bought two of those on two separate occasions and they are super super tight.
I emailed WF and they just act like they don't care and and to send back for a refund. Basically lost shipping cost four times having to send these back. I guess they just lost a customer.
This is a picture of the sleeve literally holding the MacBook upside down from how tight it fits.

Some cases don't fit with a skin on. I bought a skin and case combo from Uniqfind I think their cases are designed to fit over a skin.
This arrived today - love it - seems a good fit and well made and only 30 quid odd -

This MacBook Pro 14" sleeve from Crazy Horse Craft is outstanding! Far exceeded my expectations and the quality of the leather is fantastic. I was so fed up with the Amazon cases which either had poor fit or were ridiculously bulky!

Very classy, I like it. Im still debating between an air and a pro but I really like this sleeve case.
Are there any decent alternatives to the Native Union Slim Stow cases for the 2021+ MBP 16"? That was a fantastic case or my 13" MBP: magnetic closure so fast to open and no zipper to scratch the computer, great protection, and an opening on the short end, which is better for backpack use or if you need to charge the computer while it's in the case. I was quite surprised to discover that this case isn't available for the newer MBP.
Sure they do: https://incase.com/products/incase-hardshell-case-for-macbook-pro-14-inch-2021-dotsThey do have no Cases for 14" or 16"
Sorry. Yes. That's the only one.
But I'm looking for a sleeve and not a hard case... Looks like there are not many 14" and 16" sleeves on the market. Or I didn't find them.
They are but very much worth it. I have the folio and love it.
This came in over the weekend. Couldn’t wait for Moshi’s case so I bought the GhostShell Frost Matte from Uppercase. Definitely not top heavy, but like all of the other hard shell cases, it don’t close all the way because of clips. We’ll see how long this last.
