Which neoprene case for Macbook Pro?

I've been looking around and the Tucano Elements case seems to be a decent one but what do you recommend as a decent neoprene skin type case for my Macbook Pro?

I looked at that one but there are a lot of complaints about the colour bleeding from it.

Incase Neoprene Sleeve

Shipping time from the Apple store - 3-4 months! Trying to find the black one online is proving difficult.

There seems to be quite a few on the bay but shipping from Hong Kong if you can deal with that? They're very good cases though.

I have no problem buying from overseas but I can't see them when I search, can you give me an item number?

This is mine delivered the other day, I think its mighty cool!

Not sure the colour scheme is my thing! Can you post a picture of it half in, half out?

Got a malware black thingy from amazon last week for mine very nice and has a bit of extra storage of documents etc.

I don't really want any extra space but I'll take a look anyway, thanks.

I went for suede for my MBP. Works a treat and no fiddly zips to scratch the body.

Ooo, that's very nice. I like the look of that more than any of the others. I'm in email convo with Tanja now about sorting out the postage

... and ordered

I agree about the service from them, superb.

Sure, $33 for the sleeve itself and $13 for postage. That makes $45 which is around £30 at the current rates. Quite expensive but I like the look of it.

It's arrived, it's a little less substantial than I was expecting but to be fair, it's exactly what is needed. It's a very snug skin fitting which will protect the laptop from scratches when it's being transported. It's certainly not going to protect it against dings and drops but to be fair, that's not what it's intended to do.

I really like the way that it seems to grip the laptop in place, there's no way it's going to slip out by mistake even with one side completely open.

I'm not unhappy with the purchase, service was amazingly good from them and shipping was cheap and very quick.
