Question about Weatherfield Sleevecase - safe in the rain?

[hijaxOO7]

I'm going to be going to grad school in the Fall and I have to walk across campus several times a day. The only case I have found is the SF Waterfield sleevecase. I spoke with a rep. there and she told me that the bag is water resistant, but that water could still get into the opening, even with a flap.

Any owners of the bag have any experience in the wet weather with this case? I really like the case, just don't want to risk my investment or my data.

If you're walking around in the rain, carry an umbrella or wear a rain jacket. If you're really that concerned, get a Pelican case.

I have a sleeve with the flap and have used it in the rain many times. Never got a drop on my MacBook. It may not be water proof but it would take a deluge like Noah witnessed to get through it.

Worry not.
